DH''s ex is a crazy weasel-er. Trying to weasel her way back in. Well, not anymore, but she''s a wacko for sure.
J''s ex was a wacko during the relationship, but as a normal friend/acquaintance she seems OK.
Not to give him too much credit, but I also feel like J''s the type that, if he thought things weren''t quite on the up and up, would excuse himself from the meal and not contact her again.
He is. He''s all business.

It''s business time? Why didn''t you say so?

That''s how I am with one of my ex''s and A''s very accepting of it.

He never talks about his exes.

Sorry I was gone so long...had to talk over a response with a co-worker because this atty is being a giant Arse.

What? Never!

Hahaha. I know, seriously!
 
I''m friends with a couple of my exes still--one of them helped me get K''s Christmas present for half off because he works at Logitech. w00t! He and K get along really well. Actually, 2 of my exes are invited to the wedding.

Sunny, I still think you''re KTFU. Test again! Dollar store!

I''m on ruelala and gilt, but I haven''t checked out haute look. Is it good?

Hi wife!
 
I''m not on any of those because the stuff usually doesn''t come in my size.

I''m happy with my body, but am trying to make myself fitter...and hopefully I can get those awesome clothes in the meantime.
 
Oh, and hi LP!!!

Hi VC! How is your Tuesday going?

K and I are going to try out a new Pilates class tonight! I''m psyched--I love doing Pilates. K has never done it before but I think it''s going to be really good for him. He has a weak back because he doesn''t have good core strength and Pilates is great for that.

Nooooo!!! I have zero dollar stores near me. I know of only 3 in the Seattle suburb area, and they are scary! I have to buy rich person fancy ones from the drugstore.

I had to tell ruelala to stop clogging my inbox. Too much junk, not enough good deals!

Yeah, I have yet to buy anything from them. I missed during their Lucky jeans sale which was a bummer because they had my favorite jeans but they sold out.

It''s going okay. Stupid attorneys giving me trouble...but that''s the nature of the Patent beast, I guess.

I *heart* Pilates. I need to start doing my at-home vids! Maybe that''s what I''ll do for my workout while I''m working from home tomorrow!

Okay, so I am freaking out a little bit over here. My venue of choice (which I''ve never seen in person) just emailed me that they cannot hold my date past next Tuesday without a security deposit because another couple has inquired about the date

We were supposed to go to PR this month, but those plans kinda got sidetracked because the tix were really expensive, among other reasons.
Now this, I mean I knew they couldn''t hold it forever without a deposit, but I don''t want to book it without seeing it

I should tell Bia to go check it out for me!

Yikes, HDG. That sucks.

But why is it your venue of choice sight unseen? Is it the reputation? The pictures on their website? Word of Mouth?

Well, kinda all of the above. I have seen the outside of it. It is in Old San Juan, and I love the ambiance there, very old world European (I don''t want a beach wedding!).

So I think some of my coworkers might be "on" to my dirty little secret. I was just having lunch with them, two middle-aged women, one a mother of two, and we were talking about kids, but not babies and one of them turned to me and asked when we''d be getting around to the kid thing. Which was odd, because while I openly want kids, I''ve never talked with co-workers about my marriage or life plan like that. I just said "oh whenever it happens" and left it at that.

Ruh rohhhhhh.

Women with kids always know when other women are preggers. It''s like a 6th sense.

Gotcha. And this is obv. not something you just want to assume on. It''s your wedding for goodness sakes.

Have you tried googling the venue along with reception to come up with images that are floating around on the interwebz?
