that place between sleep and awake
that's where I'll always love you, that's where I'll be waiting

I hear that a lot of people loved the wedding. This is good. The one thing that I did hear is that my grandmother thought I spent a lot of time with the other side of my family.

I didn't spend a lot of time with any of my family. Except my mom and dad. Everyone else talked to me for a couple of minutes and was okay with that.

I have never been pulled so many directions in my life. Need a picture here, can we get a picture here, hey you need to do your first dance, cut some cake, so on and so forth. I made a point to speak to both sides of my family.

After all that, I forgot to take pictures with my grandmother and grandfather on my mom's side. At about 1:00 today, I heard that I would never be forgiven for that.

I tried to make it clear that I didn't make a point to take pictures with any one family in particular. People were brought to us, we had pictures, and they walked away. I didn't grab people for pro pictures, ever. My mom is the one who told Tom we were done with family. So now she's upset.

This is my Farrah event.


If you don't follow me on Twitter, you probably don't know any of this. So, I'll tell you guys.

My mom had a really bad car crash tonight. She is okay.

This event is my Michael Jackson. No one cares about the pictures now.

She explained it to me like this: it had been raining, she was going below the speed limit, she ended up hydroplaning, flipping several times, and she landed in a ravine. Upside-down. She was stuck in the car for a very long time, and once everything started smoking, some people saw the car and got her out.

This was around 3 central time. They were able to rescue her cell phone and purse (otherwise empty except for the phone). The sheriff took her to the police station, and she sat there and waited for my grandparents, who were an hour away at that point.

The car was towed, and they salvaged what they could. Her beautiful $400+ dress for the wedding may be beyond repair. The car is crushed and totaled. A lot of things that were going to become our wedding mementos were destroyed. My bouquet is gone.

I've managed to get over those things.

The hard thing is that my veil is nowhere to be found. They searched the crash site for over an hour and found nothing. She knows she had it.

So I guess that is just gone.

And it hurts a bit.

I know things can be replaced. But somehow, I don't think this can. Or even that it should.

I'm a mixed bag of emotions right now.

oh hai




I am an old married lady now. :)


I don't really have any pictures, but when I do, you can see them.


Well, okay, I have one. Me and Kim at the reception. But yeah.



We got some leftover food for our hotel room, and of course I dropped shrimp and grits on my dress and the floor. Both have been cleaned. :-\ One will have to be cleaned a lot better.

MAC cosmetics need to not be so expensive. But I am set for the wedding. And many years afterward.

Not to mention that once the clock strikes midnight, we are down to five days.

Anyone on the flist have an itch to come? You totally can.

21e-juin-2009 10:54 pm - Diet Day 1: Sadness
So, when you're not really supposed to be eating anything, you want everything. That much I have learned.

Started off my day by walking a couple of miles on the treadmill. Exciting, no? Then breakfast of eggs and a bit of turkey. Protein, protein.

Drank about 100 ounces of water.

Took a diuretic this morning, along with some laxatives.

Both? Bad ideas. Turns out Mom's idea of just a diuretic includes blood pressure meds. My blood pressure is normal. Do the math and you end up with me walking around in complete lethargy due to low blood pressure.

I will not go into too much detail about the results of the laxatives. Suffice it to say that I do not need them.

Lunch was a turkey burger patty, green beans, and cucumbers.

Did 30 crunches and some yoga.

Laid outside for a little while so I could get some sun on my shoulders...it's weird, but the sun felt nice. I think it was the fan blowing on me. I ended up falling asleep outside while not wearing a shirt. I was face-down, but STILL. Sleeping. Topless. Outside.

Found out cherries have about one carb each. Cried.

Took a long (long) bath. All kinds of scrubbing and shaving. Must make self beautiful.

Dinner was stir-fried chicken. Was spicy. Best thing I ate all day. Lasted the longest, too.

I feel like I'm a little better at this if I write it down, I don't know. Like, sure, limiting my carb intake is one way to do this, but I'm concerned that the things Mom is making are still high-calorie. Which is like a backwards step.

Sigh. I will be so happy when I can eat normal stuff again.
