Pin the tattoo on the ESC

Next weekend I go home to the ‘burgh for some good old fashioned wedding planning and bridal showering.

I also, theoretically, if he doesn’t flake out on me again, get a tattoo from my brother. He designed it for me way back, based on my ideas, but the planets have yet to align to [...]

jumpin’ jitters

The previously mentioned N was present at my shower last weekend, and gifted us (errr…me, as I’m the only one who will get use out of it) with a french coffee press and a pound of Starbucks coffee – Brazil Ipanema Bourbon. This is “a rare Brazilian coffee” that is described on the bag [...]

thank you so much for…

It’s very weird writing thank you notes for gifts from a bridal shower. It’s not like birthday or christmas gifts, where most of the gifts were delightful surprises. With shower gifts, you’re thanking people for gifts that, with few exceptions, you yourself picked out. And not in a “mom, I’d like a new coat [...]

how not to steal a sidekick

I’m sure most of you have seen this already – meant to link it days ago. How not to steal a sidekick. The drama is ongoing!

slimey yet satisfying???

One of the post-docs in the lab is from Korea, and I am continuously horrified at some of the stuff she has professed to enjoy eating.

I thought maybe I could gross even HER out today.

showered!

Warning: a very much unlike me, non-evil, non-science, uncool, extreme girly post. Proceed with caution

What a lovely shower! My bridesmaids did such a great job – everything was perfect. Yummy food – more than I thought there would be…I kind of regret that mcD’s double cheese burger I snagged on the way, thinking [...]

somewhat better now…

I finished the link page. Including getting the bubble tooltips to finally work (mouse over a link there, you’ll see what I mean). That’s a week’s worth of work satisfactorily finished.

Kev returned the flooring we bought from Ikea (since we found the flooring we used cheaper and nicer somewhere else) and came home [...]

Fuck you, Evelyn

My first bridal shower (eeee!) is tomorrow. And I am STILL ringless.

Over 3 weeks ago, I turned my recently returned from resizing engagement ring back over to Kay jewelers so they could send it to the company who made it, so that they could take a mold of it and make sure that [...]

Chattiest!
