It's snowing.
AGAIN.
What the EFF, people. I did not sign up for this. If I wanted handfuls of wet snow pelting my face from every angle until May, I'd live in Duluth.
ALSO, I sliced open the bridge of my left foot in a freak glass-breaking-while-rushing-to-a-meeting accident. I have never seen so much blood in my life - it looked as though I had sacrificed the fatted calf on my bathroom floor. Curiously, I got absolutely no sympathy when I showed up to work limping and bandaged and bleeding into my shoe. I'm telling you, it's dog eat dog out there, people. The vultures have already started circling my ergonomically correct chair and my power stapler and my funky tape dispenser.
IN ADDITION, I spent about two hours last night watching other people's wedding videos and bawling my eyes out. I have no idea where this came from - I don't even know these people. The videos aren't even that good. They just get me to thinking about my dad and how lucky I am that he's well enough to walk me down the aisle, and Fauxhawk's dad, who is well enough to toast us at the rehearsal dinner. They make me think about a time when they won't be around and how much I'll miss them, and how much I hope our wedding will be a celebration of life as much as a celebration of marriage. We are T-60 days to the wedding and I'm ridiculously emotional. If I can't watch "Patty + Bobby's Shotgun Spectacular" without tears pouring down my face, I can't imagine what will happen at our own ceremony.
MOREOVER, we decided to go ahead with the wedding video. Thank you so much for sending me your honest opinions - you gave me a lot of great ideas. If you have wedding clips that you like, would you send them to me? I'm trying to drum up as much inspiration as possible.
FURTHERMORE, I owe so many of you emails, it's shocking. I'm really behind - forgive me. I will be back to you soon. The baby animals submissions have been OFF THE HOOK of late - my ovaries are bursting with joy. Someone asked about what exercise DVDs I'm using - I've tried a bunch, finally alternating between P90 and a selection of workouts (the pilates chick from Ten Minute Solutions is my own personal venus) I order from Netflix or watch with the instant viewing function. I pretty much loathe exercise, so switching it up has worked for me. Now I look like Carmen Electra and I'm SO MUCH HAPPIER!!!!!!!!!!!!1
