sunshine report part trois
hello again. it's now 11:10 pm. i'm still not in bed.
i just got sucked into the website that catfoo(d) mentioned in her comment (gofugyourself.com). to foo: jerk! twenty deliciously guilty minutes later and i had to rip myself away.
but, uh, it was for research. foo and i have to research this stuff for our start-up company that we're working on... so stop judging me.
speaking of... (ok, bad lead-in to this story)(terrible really)(i'm not sure why making fun of celebrities reminded me of this)...
today, my mom and i ventured into the deep pit that is:
david's bridal.
wow.
if a wedding cake ever threw up, it would look like the inside of david's bridal.
considering we didn't have an appointment, and it was a busy sunday -- it wasn't so bad. the girl who helped us was very nice. and we did find a cute dress. most definitely not "the one" (my mom is making mine, so i better not have that eureka moment until i get to my first fitting with her). but it was nice. good shapes. good color. a bit ill-fitted, but i guess that's how it goes when you weigh 1/3 of everyone else in the store. (snap. was that mean?)(it was, i'm sorry.)
at least my mom knows that i look terrible in white, now.
oh and the best part of our visit was the fact that there were some awesomely-bad dresses. they made my day!
case in point: no one should ever wear a white princess gown with 2-inch red satin lining on the top and bottom... when you're 40!
oh, heh, and even better was when we ate lunch at panera bread:
no one should ever wear a purple, plaid, above-the-knee, strapy sundress with a big straw hat (with a giant purple bow!) and heels... when you're 40!
what's with these 40 year olds?
later, we had a birthday dinner for my mom at a little italian place on the beach, which was lovely. we had a great bottle of wine, and our food was delicious. it's hard to avoid the chain restaurants down here, so its a nice treat to find a place that's small, family-owned, and yummy.
after that, we had ice cream at their friends' house -- and everyone decided my wedding dress needed giant red satin stripes all over it.
and that way, i can serve red stripe beer.
and striped sea bass.
it's going to be gorgeous.
though i still have one more request... can i get "princess" bedazzled down the side of my gown?
good night.

that website is the greatest thing ever. if they posted in it more often, it would be my downfall.
