17 days. Good thing I'm not actually 17

I apologize for my long absences. Wedding planning is not as fun as it sounds. Especially when there aren't sparkles and fluff around.

All I've been doing with my life is working, planning for this beast, spending a small time with my family, and what seems to be an even smaller time with my fiance.

Work is grand. Full of folding other peoples messes and taking other peoples money that you can't actually have. It's rather disheartening when a lady makes a purchase bigger than your next pay check.
Cashiering isn't too bad though. That is, until you have an old lady come through the line that you think can comprehend less of what you are saying than a Mexican woman with three screaming children. But, you only think that until the next person in your line is a Mexican woman with three screaming children.

Mattress shopping was thrilling... Who would have thought springs with a cushion on top would be so horribly expensive. Lucky for us we found a deal. We also found out that Will likes the mattress that is stiffer than rocks. Good thing those are the expensive ones. The cheaper they get the farther you sink. We should probably just sleep on the floor and skip the mattress altogether.

Last night was Will's only night off. So naturally we went out on the town.... To Trafalga mini-gold and nickle city. Woot.
It really was fun though. Stupid arcade games are my thing. They also have an air-hockey table. The game count as of last night is now, Brenna-4 Will-3.

Along with working and planning, I've been spending a little time out in the sun. Gotta get my tan on for the wedding right? Wrong. I have eczema. Eczema spots don't tan. So, the old eczema spots are now white spots, and the new spots are pink. I look filthy. The new Pig-Pen from Charlie Brown.

Happy End of June to all of you. Hopefully your July will be as good as mine will.

Bridal Shower-5 weeks

Yesterday, thrown by lovely ladies who are more than amazing, I was given my first bridal shower. 
Chick food really is the best, especially when you're the guest of honor and you can eat as much as you want. 
I received so many great presents. It's a relief to know Will and I won't be destitute in our apartment. 
Only one semi-naughty present was received. From the best friend of course. It's quite cute. 
Thanks to all who came. You mean so much to me. 

5 more weeks...

6 Weeks

It's only 6 weeks away. And I'm dying. I've got a million things to do, but the chances of me sitting down to do them are very slim.
 I would really like to be married already.
