Some years hence, it won't matter to you whether they were really all that white. The substituted reality of the Photoshopped files will trump your memory of the temporal reality. I have learned that where brides are concerned, reality is nearly infinitely adjustable, anyway.Eric Dobbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11632698660559876464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79586208049323297.post-78183390421333890282011-02-04T14:47:24.340-05:002011-02-04T14:47:24.340-05:00Number 1: I am always proud of you, but I am espec...Number 1: I am always proud of you, but I am especially proud and impressed that you are actually getting all these tasks accomplished. If you only do what YOU want for your wedding and pay no attention to The Knot and those horrible magazines, it sounds like you are well past the 60 percent mark in preparations.<br /><br />Number 2: Dad stuff. To wit: Language! (spoken censoriously in a British accent like the lady in Monty Python's Life of Brian, or is it Bryan?)<br /><br />Number 3: I like the soubriquet (sp?) "Lawyer Bridesmaid." It reminds me of the title of a play I have never seen called "The Robber Bridegroom."<br /><br />Re: Teeth Whitening. If it hurts, don't do it. This is certified "life advice." Pain is Mother Nature's way of telling you to cut it the hell out.<br /><br />Re: Time. Einstein or somebody said it is relative. I don't think he was referring to in-laws. Also, the time between now and your wedding seems like the twinkling of an eye to me, but that is probably because I am relatively old.<br />With Love,<br />The Aged ParentEric Dobbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11632698660559876464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79586208049323297.post-4844447940004883612011-01-30T11:15:57.034-05:002011-01-30T11:15:57.034-05:00YAYYY YAYY YAY!!

So proud of you for being so incredibly proactive and organized!! andd I can totally hear Fiance saying those things lol.<br /><br />Maybe you should tell people you're following the trends of Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey who are 'savoring being engaged' instead of the Knot's psychobabble. (http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20461701,00.html)<br /><br />Andd I completely agree, no pre-married gestation of humans. it would ruin the whole 'Booze' theme of this wedding. well, for you, at least.<br /><br />Lawyer Bridesmaid: STOP using crest whitestrips if they hurt so badly. yes, that's my doctorly advice!! I looked into it for you, and the whitening trays we can custom make for you have bleach in them too - so I wouldn't do that. I know there's new technology that uses a light to decrease staining on teeth -but I hear it's not permanent and is usually followed up by bleaching trays. but yeah, you need a separate certification to do the light thing. still, that's probs your only option if the bleach kills your teeth. Oh, and maybe start using Sensodyne? The massive dental convention this weekend got me loads of samples (+$50 gift card to best buy, woo!) if you want a care package. the end lolDevinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06322039741279616377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79586208049323297.post-3903567471488260612011-01-29T16:30:55.812-05:002011-01-29T16:30:55.812-05:00Lovah!

Congratulations.<br /><br />We are going on a 7 day cruise out of Puerto Rico to the Eastern Caribbean going to: St. Thomas, St. Kitts, St. Maarten, St. Lucia, and Barbados. I'm super psyched. Also our room is a suite with a balcony - whaaaaaat! Awesome. I can get excited about honeymoons. Weddings, meh.<br /><br />See, that's why I don't do the exercise (though I need to - working in French restaurant is not conducive to weight loss - blog post idea?) but if exercise leads to barf I do not think I'm on board. Also: try not to be hotter than me at my wedding. K? Love you!Marehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13690513380972700595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-79586208049323297.post-81244674568116825072011-01-28T21:19:27.083-05:002011-01-28T21:19:27.083-05:00first off: praise, praise, praise for doing things...first off: praise, praise, praise for doing things and not procrastinating! I am super impressed you got your save the dates.<br /><br />more importantly, g-vegas has multiple hotels? I find this astonishing and rather unbelievable. <br /><br />also, I'm with you that October feels forever away, May seems sorta forever away right now. <br /><br />where are you honeymooning? Can we start online bathing-suit and scandalous lingerie shopping soon?<br /><br />I really like the term "Lawyer Bridesmaid."<br /><br />I just worked out for an hour and a half and proceeded to vomit (McDonalds)... this has absolutely nothing to do with your blogpost but I really just thought you'd appreciate that.<br /><br />When is your mom coming to visit/see the dress? I need a blogpost on that asap. I also really hope you get your dress from Jingles because when you're old and telling your kids about your beautiful wedding dress that you got at Jingles they can be all like, "really mom, JINGLES!?"<br /><br />okay, I think that's it. I love you! Super proud of you.<br /><br /><br />And this is for D because I know she'll see this in the comments: Crest Whitestrips HURT LIKE A MOTHERF#$%^&*R. Last week my teeth (after ONE DAY of whitestripping) were like insanely cold-sensitive so instead of getting a [cold] beer at the bar I ordered a WHITE RUSSIAN because I rationalized 'well milk is good for my teeth so a white russian is a great idea.' Who does that?! Ok, and that is the end of my story.crystaljoyyyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03491854638425603151noreply@blogger.com
