  • Wedding Invitations

    I’ve been thinking about our wedding a lot lately and wondering what to do about wedding invitations. With a wedding for two in Las Vegas, we aren’t actually inviting anyone to our wedding. On the other hand, we probably will be choosing a chapel and a package that allows people to either watch the ceremony live or either watch it for a short period of time after the wedding online. G expressed his desire that we choose a place that archives the wedding so that he doesn’t feel like everyone is watching him at the moment we get married, so…

  • Sex and The City 2 Filming!!

    Yay! The first images of SATC 2 are starting to explode across the internet, and I can’t wait to see more! Carrie Bradshaw is the only one spotted so far, and man does she look HOT. Wearing Christian Louboutin gold sparkle heels that cost more than my engagement ring, Carrie was seen sauntering down an NYC sidewalk.So far the biggest gossip going around is that even though Mr. Big has been seen during filming, there have also been scenes where Carrie is not wearing a wedding ring. Personally, that has been the main thing on my mind as well. To…

  • Cooling Down

    September is here and, like a miracle, the cooling down has already begun. Don’t get me wrong, I love summer, but after August’s hundred degree heat, I am so ready for some cooler days. Getting up this morning, I could tell it was already a little cooler, but when I walked outside to feel the cool, crisp air on my skin, I was amazed at how wonderful it felt. Sixty-five degrees out this morning, and it’s perfection. I looked at my weather channel desktop and the high is only 76 degrees! Very little chance of rain today like there was…

  • Extra Money Blues

    When we started thinking about our wedding, G and I decided that instead of taking out a loan or taking money from savings, we were going to pay for our wedding out of extra money that we made. I was able to get a job teaching private music lessons and between that and google adsense and EQII. we were pulling in some extra money. Somehow, though, along the way, we’ve managed to spend it. Every month there’s been some extra expense like a cousin’s wedding or a trip home or… for example, Christmas (which is insanely expensive these days). You…

  • MY WEDDING DRESS!!!

    I bought my wedding dress last night! I am so excited! I’m not ashamed to say that I found it on Craig’s list through an ad. The girl who sold it to me was planning to get married last year and paid over $1500 for the dress. When the wedding fell through, this beautiful, never before worn Maggie Sottero silk dress was just hanging in her closet. I was able to snag it from her for only $200!! With our current budget, it was a great price, especially considering how beautiful and nice a dress it is! The silk is…

  • Senator Ted Kennedy Dead at 77

    The last of the legendary Kennedy brothers has died of a brain tumor. Even as one who doesn’t tend to follow politics too closely, I know that you can’t deny the impact the Kennedy’s have had on American politics. There were originally four Kennedy brothers. The oldest, Joe I think? Died fighting in World War II. People say their father intended for Joe to run for president, but after he died so young, their father’s sights turned to John, the second boy. As we all know, John F. Kennedy was elected as the 35th president of the United States, but…
