All Things Woompty

Losing my shit, metaphorically

People, I am LOSING MY SHIT over here. Who created these crazy websites like TheKnot.com??? Gah! Have you SEEN the checklist they give you???? My ass, like I'm doing all that shit before my wedding. I spent roughly half an hour trying to get their stupid budget helper thingy to work and it kept changing things after I entered them leaving the budget for Kev's tux at $1 while it expected me to fork over like $4200 for food! Fuck this shit, I'm sticking to my handy dandy Excel spreadsheets and portable file thingy.

Argh, it's shit like that that makes brides all stressed out, not the weddings themselves!! Sheesh. I know what I want (and I know what Kev wants, which was to have the wedding in the mountains, which we are, so I have satisfied his one request thus far) and hell if I'm going to try and follow the stupid 200 item to do list. I can make my own damn to do lists.

Hey man, I have the wedding site and the reception site booked, I have the officiant lined up, I've got my cake person lined up, I think I already found the dress I want (!!!!!), I know what Kev's wearing, I'm 90% sure of the menu we're picking, we have the date and we know which continent we want to go to for our honeymoon. I think we're doing pretty well considering we've been engaged for all of 2 weeks. And yet, I spent 10 minutes looking at that checklist on TheKnot.com and I felt hives starting and I felt my chest tightening and my GOD, I would have passed out in fear if I hadn't closed the browser window.

So all this wedding crap is stuffing my mind, right? Which means that I of course decided to do something completely crazy and agree to lead a small intrepid group of people in an Attempt to Create a JournalCon Bid. That means that my brain looks something like this right now so I apoloigze in advance for the crappiness of my entries over the next month or so.

And now I have to go change so I can go have dinner with my family.
