5 Weeks

You know I love me some Internet/email, but I was cursing my fluent use of it and little else - pencils and pens, included - as I handwrote the plethora of thank you cards following my bridal shower last weekend. I know this may sound pathetic, but I daresay my right arm got a workout, ya'll...  

Today marks 5 weeks from my wedding day and the closer it gets, the more excited and relaxed I become. If I'm delusional, please don't tell me. I'd like to enjoy this while I can.

My shower was more lovely than I could have imagined, and while there were several people who weren't able to make it (dear, but not necessarily near), I felt so completely loved and fortunate to have so many strong women there who support me so much. There was lots of laughter (when I opened up a nutcracker, my best friend/bridesmaid yelled out, "That's for when Mark gets out of line!"), stories (even one teasing me about adamantly bringing my own handsoap to work...), and eating of delicious food. Once my hand cramps dissipate, I'll be sure to post some photos of the event for you. ;o)

The mini-bachelorette party/slumber party was a BLAST and I don't think I've laughed that much or that hard in a long time. To think I was sober the whole time...I really must be turning into a grown-up, at last.

Oh, did I just hear you start laughing? OK, you're right, I'm nowhere near being a grown-up! Ha!

Still, it's true I will become Mrs. B in less than 40 days. Holy crap, I'm so excited!!!!

Oh...I wanted to take a minute to congratulate MRS. M. (!!!) on her wedding this past Sunday. I can't wait to hear the details, lady! Hope you're enjoying Belize, you lucky biatch. (((HUGS)))

You're not delusional for enjoying this at all! The mini-bachelorette party sounds like it was a lot of fun. I love the nutcracker idea!
