Bridezilla?

Is there a level of obsessive that a bride must reach in order to get married?  I very much hope that I am a very relaxed and low key bride.  We have been getting everything ready at a pretty steady pace without any rush and only a few snags.  There have been a few things I've worried about and debated and some may even call it a mild obsession.  Chris and I throw parties all the time, but never like this and never with as many people.  Where is the line between planning and obsessing?  How much planning is enough for the event to run smoothly?  When do you know you need to take a step back?  I tried to go this week doing nothing wedding related, but somehow that didn't happen.  The question I can't help asking myself is, is there a point where wedding planning becomes unhealthy and even if I'm far short of bridezilla, have I reached this point?  I guess either way it doesn't matter since it's so close to the wedding anyway.  The important thing is that all the planning is done and all there is to do the day of the wedding is sit back and enjoy.

Decoy Museum

Have you every been to the Decoy Museum?  Chris and I pass it every time we go through Maryland on i95.  And every time we do, Chris must speculate on what it's a decoy for.  Just like when we see a pond full of oversized goldfish Chris has to tell them not to be coy.  These are things that never seem to get old.  The list gets longer if you consider that punch buggy is hours of entertainment, a steep incline sign needs to be noted by remarking "Truck on cheese," and passing by hay in a field requires an exclamation of, "Hey!"  It's all very silly, but I think that's one of the reasons I love him so much.

Sweet Ultimate Frisbee Pics

Hi all.

Remember last month or the month before when I mentioned that HitTail suggested I write about sweet ultimate frisbee pics?  Hmm, probably not...I doubt my blog is read that closely.  Anyway, I think I will pursue this topic as a good use of my blog.  Well, maybe it's a topic that is better displayed than written about.  Unfortunately, I haven't been able to upload said pictures for some reason.  I think the files may be too big.  But rest assured, I will work on it and put up some of my frisbee action shots.  And especially considering the new camera, I hope we will taking lots more and I'll have plenty of opportunity to post.  In the meantime, there are some frisbee shots on this board of Plaid and Drew Ultimate.  And some shots of Your Mom.  Hehe, what a great name.  You think the joke will grow old and it never does.

Anyway, I guess I'm just writing to let you know that the great action shots of ultimate frisbee games are on their way.

Tragedy

"Someone will propose new 'Antiterrorism' legislation. It will be full of things off of bureaucrats' wish lists. They will be things that wouldn't have prevented these attacks even if they had been in place yesterday. Many of them will be civil-liberties disasters. Some of them will actually promote the kind of ill-feeling that breeds terrorism."

Blogging by Request

Okay, if you tend to read a lot of blogs, I hope you'll join me in enjoying this blog post. As someone who knows many of the blogs mentioned in the ultimate blog post list, I was quite entertained at its insight and I just wanted to share.

This morning, as I got off the train and headed into Grand Central, it took all my self-restraint to refrain from mooing. All I could think of was how much we all looked like cattle being herded off the train. Cattle in dressy shoes and tailored suits, but cattle nonetheless. The first day waking up early was fine, the second day is difficult, and the third will be very annoying. I know I could get used to the early hour, but since I'm going back to my usual schedule soon, I’m hoping to not have to make the transition.

So I've started using Stumble Upon after the feature was recommended to me. People will bookmark sites and when you hit a button, it will take you to one of these random sites. By voting for or against it, the site will slowly cater to what you like and when you're bored, you can find all sorts of new and interesting things on the Internet. It's a good idea and is to websites what Pandora.com is for music. Speaking of which, I've got to start using Pandora more; I'm starting to get bored of the songs currently in my mp3 library…

What was the point of this entry? I'm not entirely sure. But thanks for reading anyway. Oh, and I take requests. Is there anything else you’d be interested in reading about?
