some major thanks are in order to my main man up there...God...for the massive amounts of grace He's been bestowing upon my unworthy arse lately... i dunno why, but for some odd reason, the dude still likes me. i'll take it.
my mum and i went to castleton thursday (that would be yesterday i guess) looking for the elusive dresses. the nite before i was telling God "alright...you're just gonna have to show me where they are....cos obviously i can't do it myself..." next day we walk into the mall down there... and first store we're in... ....there they are.
*cue applause*
most of the invitations were mailed today.
his ring is back from being resized.
my dress gets fixed next week (pregnant belly no likey dressy right now).
there's still a bunch of crap to do.
there's a kitty sleeping on my arm right now.
oh, we got our marriage license today.....which was weird. you don't have to get an aids test anymore, but you do have to have proof of your freaking rubella shot....... you remember... that mmr shot you had in elementary school so you could enter sixth grade??
yeah.........bring your school records.
unless of course you get pregnant before you get married! ahyuck. cos then when you start your prenatal care they stick you in the arm a bunch of times and steal a lot of your blood... then later they give you a card with your blood type and rH type and --- GASP!! --- your rubella stuff. like whether your shot worked all those years ago.
i just happened to still have this card in my wallet......so a marriage license was gotten. weeeeee go team.
some of the questions they ask are kinda funny. "have you ever been judged to be of unsound mind?"
and ... no joke ...
"are you currently under the influence of alcohol or a narcotic drug?"
overall it was pretty quick, painless, and cheap. just the way i like......everything.
i'll be happy when all this is over.
