“Ok I think I’ve covered all those random thingies - Ok wait - you do
know the old,  new,  borrowed,  blue and penny in your shoe thing?
My work here is done.”
- Jessica Laney

There is a point when Sarah goes into overdrive, and we hit it about a week ago.  Overdrive takes over, and all I can focus on is details.  I make a task-plan for everything, and deadlines are the driving factors to each baseline.  And I rebaseline on a daily basis.  And yes, this is how I am right now.

So I completely missed the whole “the bride can’t do her own rehearsal” thing.  All the brides I’ve talked to (with the exception of TLS ladies, and I have to wonder if they’re not Comer-biased) have never heard of this tradition.  Quite honestly, it doesn’t really mean anything to me, one way or the other.  Other than.. really.. it’s kinda weird to send one of my really good friends down the aisle with Bryan.  That’s just not right.

Tomorrow will be stress-free.  Why?  Because I have deemed it so.  Because I will be done with response cards and meal choices and blah blah blah and I don’t have to do anything until Sunday/Monday timeframe.  All of the bridesmaids have next week off, so maybe there will be lunch. 

OOOH-OOOOH-OOOOH.. maybe I’ll go get a tattoo tomorrow night, while Bryan’s off at his bachelor party.  That’d be awesome.

Truth be told, I am starting to get excited.  A lot of people I love will be at this shindig.  That’s always a very cool aspect.  And even if everything else goes wrong — which it won’t — all of those people will be there.  And THAT’S what I always said I wanted: to have the people I love around me when I get married.

Another cool thing about weddings?  Going home is like Christmas every day.  There’s always a new present.  Last night, I used our brand new Emeril cookware.  It was fabulous.  Granted, it was just to make Pasta-Roni, but it was still a scrumptuous dinner.

I am so proud of my fiance.  Can I just say that?  Why?  I’ll tell you later.
