I''m bored, but busy.

So I''m eating.

 

[princesss]

Why is the only sprint tri in the time frame I''m hoping for freaking 3 and a half hours away?

 

[ladypirate]

Good morning ladies!

I had a dream last night that it was our wedding day and I had forgotten to get the bouquets together and none of my bridesmaids were dressed and we were already like half an hour late walking down the isle. OH NOES.

On the plus side, booked our ceremony/cocktail hour musician yesterday. He''s an awesome guitarist who does both classical and more light rock and jazz stuff. Woohoo!

Link if you want to hear some of his stuff.

 

[Lauren8211]

Morning LP! I love guitars! I want to hear his stuff, but I can''t until I''m at home!

Princesss - I dont know why, but thats super annoying.

Murphy will go into stealth mode if he wants to be in your lap. One minute he''ll be sitting next to you and then he''ll slowly inch his way forward, one paw at a time, until he''s sitting in your lap. Then he''ll proceed to rub himself all over you-using your body to pet himself. He also reaches up and gently touches your face while looking deeply into your eyes.

Charlie has a habit of pushing his way onto my lap no matter what. The other day I was sitting on the edge of our tub with a bottle of grout sealer in one hand and a paint brush in the other. He muscled his way onto my lap and then proceeded to lose his balance and fall on the wall I had just finished sealing, leaving his fine black kitty hairs everyone on the wet sealant.

Princesss...that sucks about the tri. I spent forever trying to find races near me. Finally decided an hour was an okay drive race morning for a half marathon, lol.

elle...I''ll only allow the boredom snacking since B-pics are done.

LP...I want a solo guitarist, too! I found one in KC, so now it''s a matter of booking him once we get a date!

Speaking of wedding dreams...I had the weirdest dream last night. We were shopping for tuxes. But the place we were at wasn''t like a Men''s Wearhouse. It was this tiny little shop. And instead of looking at the tuxes, we had to look at dresses and pick the dress that most embodied what we would want in the tux. And then they''d give us the matching tux and you didn''t get to see it til the wedding day.

It''s especially odd since I think we might just buy A a new suit from Banana...

Oh dear, C-tek...that''s just no good!

Otto is not a lap pet, but my friend''s dog is a crazy lap monster. We used to dog sit a lot and Daisy would be all over my lap with her bum in my face. After a while I trained her to actually sit next to me and it was awesome! I saw her last week and she jumped right back on to my lap. Haha. Silly pup. I do love how snuggly she is though, so I can''t complain too much.

LOL. Bad kitty!!!

 

[Lauren8211]

Did I mention to you that Ferris and Not-Ferris were *dying* to get in front of the camera when Melissa was shooting my b-pics?

I had to keep kicking them off the bed! Melissa let them stay up for a few shots, so they are in some of my B-pics!

 

[princesss]

Ummm, possible faux pas alert.

I just e-mailed two of my triathlete friends to ask if there was anything I should keep in mind before deciding to sign up for this tri. Juuuuuust realized I asked about a tri the same day my friend is getting married! Shoot shoot shoot. And it''s one of those where I don''t know if we''re invited or not because we''re friends but not like call each other all the time friends, but still pretty good friends but they''ve got a lot of family so who knows, and I don''t want it to read like "Should I keep the day open? *meaningful stare*"

Bah. I overthink things.

Princess, what is this show? Is it a sitcom? I''ve kind of vaguely heard of it, but I have no idea what it''s about.

I skimmed your post and thought it said, ''Princesss, what is a sitcom? I''ve kind of vaguely heard of it...''
Yeah.

Hahahaha!

El, it''s a sitcom. It''s about 3 families - Al Bundy from married with children, and his kids and their families. His son is gay, and he and his partner have a daughter, and his daughter is married to Phil (can''t remember her name, but I know his!) who is super awkward and they''ve got 3 kids. It''s still finding its stride, but it''s usually hilarious (and always has at least one really really good moment).

Best sitcom on tv right now!!! It''s freakin hilarious!

Morning my loves!

OK, so Kris and I are going to a ball (!) in January. I have between now and then to find a hot evening gown to wear.

Yes I realize that is a crazy long period of time, but I am picky! And I want to look nice. I really loved the drapey silk charmeuse stuff I tried on bridal dress shopping (Amy Michelson, etc.), so I think my ideal gown would be something along those lines, backless, preferably in a dark blue. But I am open to suggestions.
