I’m sooooo ready for it. Sitting on the couch for an entire weekend, doing nothing, but eating nachos, wings, pizza, brats, and other yummy non-healthy things. Beer! Lovely, lovely beer. And not planning a wedding.

It’s coming… only 12 more days. The next week is going to be a mad rush to get everything done. The weekend after the wedding I am doing nothing. I am going to pretend it’s a football weekend, even if it’s not yet on. I’m going to eat oooey-gooey cheesy food and sit on the couch… Well, I might take Milo to the beach, but that’s about it.

Here’s to August 25th!!

Day in the Life, Stresses, Wedding by Courtney

Yesterday the day was spent in San Francisco. We went to pick up my dress (yay!!!). Then we headed down to the Ferry Building to take some pictures and grab some grub.

We’re closing in on the wedding. Only 27 days until the big day. And there is still so much that needs to be done.

But, we did take a break yesterday evening to enjoy the gifts we’ve been receiving — we ate our first meal off of the new dishes from our registry. Buffalo steaks and grilled veggies — yummy! Thank you Lad & Becky and Ninny & Papaw!

Day in the Life, Wedding by Courtney

Today is opposite day. Remember opposite day? When your friends (or enemies, more likely) would say or do something, and you would say “Nuh-uh! It’s opposite day!”

Last weekend — I think it was last weekend, it feels so long ago — last weekend we had the flights from hell on Delta. The first two flights were majorly delayed, but we make it to the gate in Cincinatti 4 minutes before the plane was supposed to leave, and that plane, the one that would have taken me where I wanted to go, was already gone.

So we get some meal vouchers and eat. Then we chill in the Cincinatti airport, where you could find a private area, because no one and no planes were there.

But, we make it to TN, and we have a fine time there, partying at Bob’s and eating a fine lunch cooked by my uncle.

Sunday evening was more fun times on Delta. Delayed again, of course, the other flight wasn’t. They send us to San Francisco insted of San Jose. They give us meal vouchers. That’s what I want at midnight in SF – a meal voucher. How about a voucher to pay for transport from SFO to SJC?? That was 60 bucks and an hour and a half lost from my pocket.

Oh well. At least I got to spend some time in Tennessee, and Raju came with me.

Day in the Life, Fun Times, Happy by Courtney

I’ve had crazy dreams lately. I haven’t had a chance to write about them, but I will soon. And at some point, let’s just say next year since I know aiming for anything this year is a joke, there will be a series of paintings based on my wacky, tacky dreams.

So instead of staying in my sleep-depraived state of mind, I’m going to post a photo from Carmel (oh Carmel, you were so long ago…) and pretend that I’m in that state of mind.

Happy Monday!

I love a good cheeseburger. Even better, a good slider.

When I finish watching soaps (Yes, soaps, I’m addicted. I haven’t watched them in a few weeks, or even been able to read recaps. I also have a couple of episodes of Desperate Housewives to catch up on, another guilty pleasure, as I hate being anything like the typical girl) I may cook another cheeseburger on the grill. Last night we had Pancetta Cheeseburgers with Fontina Cheese (thank you to this month’s Martha). I’m thinking today maybe the vomit blue cheese with cajun seasoning.

Oh, gotta go. The Fed Ex man is approaching!!!
