Things I’m Contemplating Today…

by Heidi on June 11, 2008

* Do tourists really wear deodorant? I mean people – on a crowded metro train, with 100 degree weather with horrid humidity, I know it’s going to smell bad but if you don’t know how to use a roll on? For the sake of me and the other hygiene friendly people, please please…keep your arm down. Yes I’m talking to you sweaty old man who may or may not be homeless. And you too father of four with sweat pouring down your face.

* 200 people for a wedding? Maybe 250…is that really reasonable?? I didn’t think i knew that many people!

* When i begin the dress shopping fiasco, what happens if i find my shoes first? I mean i want an a-line, strapless gown with a sash (no beads. I hate beads. I want simple silk or satin..)  to match my bridesmaid dresses – my sister and boyfriends sister will be wearing green and my pals will be wearing pink. I want a pink sash and green shoes? Maybe? Maybe everyone should wear green or pink? I think i like pink better. but not obnoxious pink…salmony pink. (this is me already going crazy)

* How soon after we engaged do we start getting gifts? Man i can’t wait to redo my kitchen!!! Spice rack, standing mixer and new dishware galore!!!

* Two days of delays on the metro getting home SUCKED. Tonight i have to work at job #2…it better not take THREE trains to get on at L’enfant. For those of you non-rush hour commuters? Bless you for not having to put up with this CRAP.

* $79 + fees for Coldplay at the verizon center? Mildly redonkulous considering I didn’t even want to pay $60 to see John Mayer & Ben Folds at the Verizon Center. I Don’t think Coldplay will be seeing my bling.

* Crate and Barrel v. Bed Bath and Beyond? Macy’s v. Bloomingdales (i think I’ll be a macy’s girl if only for the martha stewart line…) ? Amazon v. not amazon (ummm martha stewart cook books anyone??)? These are the things boyfriend and I talked about while watching Hells Kitchen last night. Gawd you’d think we were already engaged. But….we’re not. (he did however speak with my mother last night…)

* Where can i find this line? I found her in the Express this morning and fell in love with the pictures they put in there. She’s like Lily Pulitzer with a twist…I’ve fallin’ in love with the Palm Beach styles of Lily and JCrew…now if only I could afford such nice things :( Speaking of Lily… I just talked myself out of buying a super cute shirt for $40 – need to save money and it’s either that or a bathing suit but not both *sigh*

Enough out of me…I need to stop thinking about my hopeful pending nuptials (seriously it’s kept me from sleeping…the anticipation is KILLING ME!!! You hear that boyfriend…KILLING ME!!!! Maybe not killing me but at the very least keeping me from getting good nights sleep thus not running…) and you know…get some work done since thats what I’m getting paid to do. Not peruse The Knot….
