bridesmania!!!

i feel like i've been sucked into bridesmaid hell. :) for the past 2-3 nights cath and i have been diligently trying to get these STDs out the door for SBs wedding. last night we had to resort to going to kinkos to get them made. the beautiful counter guy helping us really made the situation easier though. his australian accent made cath and i weak at the knees, but maybe we were just weak from malnourishment from tuesday nights non-dinner, in any case, we got what we needed to start putting together the goods.

so last night during american idol (i never watch this show either, but there is absolutely nothing on right now on tue and wed nights) we assembled about 100 pieces of the pie! today cath is printing the other half at work, and tonight she and mike will attach, stuff, seal and stamp the envelopes. and when i get home i will mail merge sarahs 95% completed mailing list onto labels.

*huge sigh*... now the dress buying can begin. i've been instructed to buy the following dress in black for my july wedding. very conservative... i called a local place and she told me that i should order it soon cause it can take 6 months to come in. WTF! in six months i could sew the dress myself! if that is true and it does take 6 mos, i better get my ass moving on the dress i will need for SBs wedding which is 2 months earlier than BDs wedding. :(



when you order these dresses you put $100 or half of the dress down as a deposit and pay the balance when it comes in. :( that is going to cut into my european getaway money.

i was really hoping that i could just cruise through these next few weeks dreaming about paris and london (maybe italy, if KG gets some plans together) but i have been shocked into the reality that is wedding season.
