Seven Months
It's been a while. So long, in fact, I forgot just why I stopped blogging. Perhaps, I was just bored with the whole thing. I have done a little blogging on MySpace, and that's basically just because I'm lazy and it's easy to do because I'm already signed-in to message friends and whatnot.
So, in approx. 7 months, I'll transition from fiance to housewife. The fiance and I have been together over 9 years now, and we've talked about getting married for at least 5 of those years. This time, however, we're really taking the plunge - deposits, dress, preacher and all. I'm not at all nervous (but maybe that doesn't usually hit someone until a little closer to the ceremony date?), but I have been a little lazy when it comes to wedding planning. For an example, I haven't spoken with a florist or a cake baker/decorator. I know there are some brides who have all of these details sorted out 12 months in advance, but I'm just not one of them. I have school, but I can't say I'm too busy; I think my lack of planning stems from several factors: Mom and Grandma too far away to do the traditional Mom/Daughter/Grandma planning, laziness, unknowledgeable of services in the Chattanooga area and too preoccupied with other things (homework and geekery) to find out about florists, cake decorators and other such business. OH, and then there's this thing - I am, by nature, a procrastinator.
On the flip-side, I am meeting with the hair-stylist and make-up artist (sounds so "Hollywood") tomorrow, and the minister later on this week. I have secured the venue (along with the catering) and wedding coordinator. I'm not entirely unprepared for this wedding.
So, things are changing. In 7 months I'll be married, in 12 months I'll graduate college, and I think, then, I'll be a full-fledged adult. Or, at least feel like one. All in all, life is really, really good.
