yeah, we're like that to some extent too, but some stuff s certainly more my focus, and some is hers.

we did skip the diamond thing for the engagement though, and got matching tri-gold rings that we wore through engagement, and regave during the ceremony.

we are planning to have a wedding that costs under 2500.

because of that there is a lot more planning and such.

in the end we just want to be married!

ours was similar in price. one smallish place in stillwater - a b&b, maybe 60-70 or so people, we had a friend make the cake, and a couple relatives who are photographers. it was really cozy and fun and everyone remarked how good a time they had, and some still do when talking about weddings in our family that they liked.

hah. we are inviting 215 people.

my family: 21 her family: 86

it will be interesting with that many people but I think we can still do it.

her family is doing the food, she is making her own dress, and our honeymoon was given to us as a gift from her aunts

Ugh. I've been given the option of cash or a new camera as payment for my services.

I'm conflicted, because if I got the cash, I'd use it for a new camera, not to mention, the cash would probably less than the camera.

I've realized that life isn't an illusion because every morning when I wake up, there are still snakes in the world.

I hate snakes.

Nay. Crotch rockets give all motorcycle riders a bad name. It's one of those things where a few bad apples ruin the whole bunch.

You get these kids that have to pull a wheelie at 80 on the freeway make me sick.
