The aftermath...
I am still tired.
I have amazing friends
We may not be as wild as we were when we were 23, but I think we still have got what it takes to make a bar and traveling party bus pretty awesome. And still manage to be in bed by 2. 2:30 if we’re being generous.
Friends from Austin, St. Louis, San Antonio, New York, Houston traveled to meet in Forth Worth. Pretty great representation.

My future husband will appreciate my financial restraint in not purchasing anything from the Tucker sale in Gilt today.
I didn’t even use the wedding or honeymoon as an excuse.
simplekindofwoman:
My birthday is this Thursday, but my husband decided to give me my gift a few days early. While I’m sure many people won’t understand why I adore this so much, I feel like the 3 people who see this little blog will appreciate it.
My lovely man, who apparently knows me better than anyone, gifted me this little gem of a chair, apparently from the early 1900s, AND classes on...

11 Things I Learned in 2011
irrationalurges:
So you know the deal. It’s the end of the year and I’m feeling nostalgic, so I am writing lists of things. Things I learned, things I did, and things I wished I had done. Here’s part one: Read More
Truth by Georgia. One of my smartest, funniest and most original friends… Only part of why she is a bridesmaid in my wedding - whose mention in this post I am going to refer...

The wedding is three months from last Saturday
And yet my most pressing wedding related issue is do Carson and I pull the trigger and buy this JetSetter Las Palmas hotel package in Zihuatanejo for our Honeymoon? Carson still isn’t sold on Mexico but I am thinking a private pool for 7 days would be hard to beat.
What do we do? To JetSet or not to JetSet?

Sunday night:
Chili and Friends with Benefits. So far the movie is a fairly decent romcom but I am having serious continuity issues with the fact that they keep drinking Shiner in all of the scenes set in New York. Everyone knows Shiner is only sold in Rub BBQ and New Jersey. Fail.
Also, I haven’t seen the end yet, but I have a sneaking suspicion they are going to be BF/GF.
My life in shopping online:
Success!
Juicy Couture Rosette Boots. Will be great either at the office or dressed up for some of the wedding functions I am partaking in over the winter months.
Fail:
This Rebecca Taylor Eyelash dress is GORGEOUS — the blue is absolutely stunning, but unfortunately I just have too much junk in my trunk to make this work. Since this was potentially going to be my rehearsal dinner...

I’ve been to eight of these. However, I was dragged into two of them under duress. As soon as I saw the name of the list, I knew Joshua Tree had to be number one, considering the minute I once spent in there a couple years ago was the worst 60 seconds of my life. Also, I take issue with Professor Thom’s being described as douchey because it’s actually pretty...

Postponed the shoot - everyone was on board to move it to tomorrow (including, most importantly, my boss) an of course it is sunny out now! Just right now, though… I am sure it will start raining imminently.
angrygirlfrienddiaries replied to your post: So I don’t want to be all first world problems…
Rumor has it that you need permits to shoot in Grand Central Station? I am not sure if that’s true, but it might be worthwhile to google it quickly before finding out the hard way!
GREAT suggestion - apparently as long as they only use a handheld camera we are OK. I guess the theme of the shoot...
