Super Bowl Sunday

America's pastime. The big all-American game. Yes, once again its that time of year and once again, I don't care. I've never much been into football. Except for a few high school and college games but I've never spent weekends watching the NFL. So when my good friend, who is getting married asked if I could come try on bridesmaids dresses on Super Bowl Sunday, I said sure. So I drove over to Beverly Hills which only took 15 minutes (thank you Super Bowl) to try on a plethora of dresses. Of course, they were all horrible except one and that is the one I bought because luckily the bride gave us all the option to wear whatever dress style we wanted. So I went for this simple long dress. The bride's colors will be Indigo which is not the purple shown in the photo. Although before showing up I thought Indigo was purple. While we were there trying on one hideous dress after another one of the brides down the hall comes out in (I kid you not) an Elsa Wedding Dress. Yes, I had totally forgotten that Disney has their own line of wedding dresses. Well, this Elsa dress was so grand, so flamboyant, that I had to try it on! I never got to try on wedding dresses for my own wedding so this was the first wedding dress I ever tried on and boy did it ever have a lot of sequins! And tulle. It was like 10 sizes to big so the lady had to clip me in but in addition to feeling like a snow queen I felt like a mermaid as this is what this dress seemed to be a cross of, a mermaid and a ice queen. I guess you could kind of say I "Let It Go" in the bridal shop! ha ha

Random Thoughts as the Weekend Closes

Today I got a friend request from my mother-in-law. Will she embrace the FaceBook? We wait and see. Technology is cool...I got to speak to my friend in Hong Kong today. The BlindSide is a really heartwarming and good movie. I didn't know what to expect. I saw Sandra in blond hair and I thought cheesy. Now I can't decide whether I want her or Meryl to win the Oscar. Cats are really nice creatures. I haven't really had much exposure to one before. I especially like the fact that you can hold them like babies. I wonder if I stole Mr. Chuckles if anyone would notice? hum. Bartenders blowing fire makes for an interesting drink at the bar. Plantains are better when they come with your meal and not as an appetizer. I met a man who wanted to see Leap Year. Krueger continues to take jobs that suck ass and take up her precious time. Sorry CougarTown screwed ur day up Krugs. We missed u at the movies today. Ever since I got Mo I have meet the most interesting people ...

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Time Is Flying

Man, back in September and October, I thought time was going by so slowly but now that we are in November and half way through it, it seems like time is flying once again. Maybe that has a little bit to do with me being a lady of leisure these days. My doctor put me on bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy. I went into his office all stressed out over the situation at work in early November and he said "this Friday, November 4th, will be your last day." I was like "Excuse me?" Doc put me on disability because stress is bad for the gestational diabetes I already have and for the apparent high blood pressure reading I had that day and some of my tests indicated I was at risk for pre-eclampsia. My new job, is to go to the hospital for neonatal stress tests, twice a week, on Monday's and Thursday's with a weekly OBGYN appointment on Thursday's after my hospital appointment. Throw in some eye doctor appointments with an eye specialist (apparen...
