11 months today

it's exactly 11 months until my wedding. I think I just got sick to my stomach.
So much to do!!!!
Florist (bouquets, centerpieces, church flowers)
DRESS
Bridesmaid's dresses
Mom's dress
Tux's
Rings
Shawn has to finalize the DJ (this is making me VERY nervous)
Plan honeymoon
LOSE WEIGHT!!

I'm sure there is much more but those are the things I can think of off the top of my head. I'll get it all done in time right? Millions of other people have done it in way less time. I'll be ok.....I hope.

Here are a couple of ideas that I have for the wedding....




Hmmm, I guess those are all flower ideas. I have to start thinking of some other stuff too.

ciao!

I hate being the new guy

ok, just a whiny post.

I started the 8.9 upgrade project on monday. I'm on loan to IMS in a different building than my actual job. I'll be here until the end of the year at least.
So they were going out to lunch b/c Lisa is going on maternity leave soon.
They sent out an invite in our calendars and I replied yes. Keep in mind, I've known these people for years, just never worked in their dept. 12pm came and they all left for the lunch. They forgot about me. :( I guess I could have followed them to the restaurant and showed up alone but that would have been awkward. I'd have to find where they were sitting and hope that there was room for me.

I'm just bummed. I wore something nice and didn't bring lunch today. I had to go out in the pouring rain for some crappy food.

ok, I'm done complaining....I think. ;)

6/6/06

Ok, so it's cheesy but I had to use it as the title. It's a semi historic day. And a little creepy.

Yesterday was exciting and crappy. I started working on the upgrade project so I moved over to 124 Mt Auburn. I am in cube hell. I'm used to my nice office with a big window and happy people with personalities. Now I'm in a dull environment which is made worse by the fact that everything is beige.
Desktop
walls
overhead cabinet
file drawers
computer

I thought I was going to have an aneurysm! ;) And I had a stationary chair. If I wanted to move to another part of the desk I had to pick the chair up. UGH!

Today is looking much better. I finally have a rolly chair. It's disgusting and old but it moves. I brought in my pictures so I have Shawn and Bazzill staring at me. And I remembered my tunes so I have a little noise distraction too. Ahhhhhhh, much better. Now, if I could get rid of the sinus headache it would be heaven. Hoping to do that at lunch.

The picture I have on my desk of me and Shawn is a skinny picture. I'[m hoping it will motivate me a little more. I'm definitely in crunch time and things aren't going well. I only have a little more than 11 months and I really should order my dress at the 8-9 month mark. So, although it sounds like a long ways away....IT'S NOT!!!!

Ok, don't want to make this headache worse.

Ciao!
