Oh and did I mention I was the Maid of Honor?!? For those of you who have yet to experience the Maid of Honor title, let me fill you in on a few things. First, prepare to eat, sleep, breathe wedding. You're going to start to wonder if you're actually the one getting married. You will hear colors that you never knew existed, such as peek-a-boo pink and mellow yellow. I'm still not sure what those colors even look like. Second, be prepared to eat a lot. Seriously though, you will consume ungodly amounts of food. The worst part is that you cannot say no. You must do it "for the sake of the wedding". Yeah try telling my favorite pair of jeans that. Third, you must make sure your phone is with you at all times. It is an unspoken law. If you leave your phone alone for five minutes you WILL receive 30 text messages, 12 picture messages, 8 missed phone calls, and 6 voice mails. I'm not kidding. We both know how annoying that little voice mail icons are at the top of the phone. Fourth, you cannot eat. I know, I know, I just said you will eat ungodly amounts of food. Yeah it sucks. You have to eat but not eat at the same time. There is this thing called a bridesmaids dress and if you don't fit into it, bridezilla will unleash scary things onto you. Speaking of bridezilla, AVOID HER AT ALL COSTS. The groom will say it is your responsibility to control her. Wrong. So, so wrong. It is his job. If he wants to marry her then he can deal with that.
But when the day comes, you forget everything that has led up to the day and you just accept that what's done is done and what's not been accomplished will not happen. As long as the bride and groom are happy, you have done your job.
But yeah, that is why I have been busy and unable to write. But have no fear, I will be blogging constantly. Maybe not everyday, maybe more than once in a day. Who knows, because I sure don't.
