Nothing inspires the desire to lose weight and look amazing more than an impending wedding. Maybe a high school reunion or a meeting with an ex-boyfriend that broke your heart are both up there, but getting married takes the cake (pun intended). We haven’t set a date yet, but we are hovering somewhere around the year to a year and a half area. That means that in order to have time to pick out my dress and look amazing in it, I have about nine to twelve months to re-create myself as the perfect me I always wanted to be….

After all of the news surrounding the new Batman installment, I wanted to see for myself whether it was a great movie and whether Heath Ledger truly delivered a performance worthy of a posthumous oscar nod. I’m not sure what it is about human nature that makes us want to flock to the scene of an accident or be a part of the events surrounding a person’s death. I guess deep down we are all a bunch of voyeuristic pigs, who want to witness tragedy so that we might understand it better. I think part of it is that we…

I am so happy that it’s Friday! I can’t believe that we have almost been engaged for a week!!! This has been such a happy, wonderful week! And guess what else today is?? Snickerdoodle’s third birthday!! I remember when I first got her she was just a tiny puffball of white hair. In some ways it feels like I have had her for longer than three years.

An island in the Caribbean seems like the perfect place to get married. The beautiful blue waters, the white sandy beaches, temperate weather all year round, and an exotic location far away from anyone who knows you. Not that being near people that love you is bad… but we are going to get married in a ceremony that comes down to just the two of us. I adore the thought of getting married on the beach and then having the rest of the day and the rest of the week to just enjoy the resort, the island, the bed… No…

It’s amazing how quickly I’ve gone into full bridal mode! I can’t stop thinking about things like wedding location, budget, vows, pictures, everything. Hopefully my brain will calm down a bit soon and I can get back to normal life, but for now I am just too excited! Of course, it’s not the wedding that excites me so much as the marriage. In a lot of ways, nothing really changes. We already live together and share our finances. There’s no virgin anticipation of the wedding night. Sure, legally things will change. This house will be partially mine after we are…
