Aaannnnd...

the best picture of all...me and Jorge Garcia or HURLEY from LOST! I was so excited about this. I look a hot mess, maybe because I basically jumped out of the pool, threw clothes on (as to not scare the locals and other hotel guests) and RAN after my Lostie! I caught him and even though I looked like wet death he agreed to a picture with me. i HAD to bring back proof. Now, if I could only run into the rest of the cast of my favorite show...and if only it could be this easy! I mean, he was eating lunch/having a meeting at the hotel i am staying at...do it again someone PLEASE!

mr and mrs

Well...we're married!!! and currently in Hawaii. It was a spectacular weekend from start to finish. The wedding and nights leading up to and following the event were better than I could have ever imagined.

The night before the wedding, after the rehearsal and the drunk fest that followed, a couple of my bridesmaids and I ended up at the Washington monument at 3am running through the sprinklers and around the monument like nut cases. One of my bridesmaids fell down and scraped up her elbows. We could not stop laughing. So much so that my other bridesmaid peed her pants! It was a riot and the best way to spend my last single night!

The weather for our wedding day was PERFECT! I got a little nervous before I walked into the church but it all lifted once in and down the aisle. It was WONDERFUL and now we plan to do it up in Hawaii.

We got her yesterday and it was a loooong day. We went to dinner at 8pm and it took all I had to not fall face first into my bowl of mussels. 8pm here = 2am at home! When we get some time I'll update but for now I am going to be chillin in paradise! Here are some pic's that some friends have been so great to send along already to keep you occupied until my next post. I miss you all...a little!

the new MRS. Funky!

Well, the craziness starts today and I'm ready. I'm meeting my girls at the day spa for pampering at about 11am and from there I will come home and pack my bags for the next few days of wedded mayhem.

Our living room looks like Christmas with all of the wedding party gifts. We have so much shit to take with us we need a U-Haul.

Tonight is the rehearsal dinner and I think it's going to be SO MUCH FUN! We'll get to hang out with all of the peeps that came in from out of town and the one's that we see often and love so much. The Sweet One had a moment yesterday. I think it was a mini panic attack. It was like a moment of clarity actually, like hey, this is really happening. All of these people are here for US! It was very cute.

Anyway, tomorrow the hair guy and makeup girl will be at the hotel in the morning to start getting ready for the big show. I am very excited but I am also really nervous to walk down the aisle with all of those people looking at me. Not to mention I will probably start crying once I head down the aisle and see my family and TSO!

We leave on Tuesday morning for the honeymoon and I think I'll have time to post a picture or two before then if I have any. I just wanted to thank all of you for sticking by me and my lame ass blog the last few months. I know this wedding speak can get old. Of all people I never expected to be "one of those girls", but I guess when you're consumed by something you have no choice. You all have been a great support, more than you know, and I really appreciate this release. I can't wait to share the pic's with you all and I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

Cheers!

I'm getting married in 3 DAYS! I can't even believe it. THREE DAYS! It seems like forever ago I got engaged and had a million years before the big day would be here and now...well, it's just about here. I can't say I'm stressed or freaking out. I'm really not. The Sweet One and I pretty much have everything under control and in order. I am excited and I kind of can't believe it's all going to be over in one day! Oh well. Then we get to go to Hawaii and then we get to be married and that's the best part.

Last night was our first official dinner at home together. Like, really living together. It was very nice. It kind of felt for real, because I have to admit, I'm still waiting for TSO to go home...he he...It's just weird when you've lived alone for some time then you have a new roommate. One that isn't going to move out in a year. One that sleeps in the same bed as you do. It's kind of fun and it's really nice to wake up next to my best friend every day.

Okay, enough mushy stuff. I have a trillion things to do at work. I'm trying to get myself ahead of the game and work ahead so the people covering for me don't stress. I have some last minute wedding running around to do and then I have a work happy hour tonight. I figure I'll go because I usually don't say no to drinking, and because I will be gone for almost 3 weeks and it's a nice way to kind of head out. Should be fun.

I hope everyone is having a great week.
