Da Count- my family

The family that I had the pleasure of spending the past years with are wonderful and I love them to death, but the family Fishstick and I have now (us and the kitties) make me so happy. I love you all so much

Here's to a wonderful support system on 2 and 4 legs.

For Lucy

We lost a kitty last night. She was my girl, my companion, my little hippo.
You have no idea how much I will miss her.
All the snuggles, all the tummy rubs, knowing when I needed love.
She was my girl.

Love you so much Lucy


(Last night someone hit her, she's gone and my heart hurts so much)

Ninja Bubbles HNT

Once upon a time, there was a couple that spent a LOT of time in a car. They decided to take a break for the night from driving in The Biggest Little City on Earth. The Fishstick suprised the Mrs. with a suite at the hotel. The room was equipt with the biggest bath tub in the world.......

and that's where it gets bubbly.


The Mrs. decides to take a bubble bath- starts the water, loads up on the bubbles (because it's a big tub) and waits.

She submerges but notices that the bubbles seem to be overtaking the tub......


and slowly the Mrs. as well.

After a grumpy face and some big laughs she makes it out- with much softer skin!

Happy HNT.
Check out where it started!

so I have decided on putting them up for grabs on Craigslist....

potential ad on Craigslist:

Ovaries and Uterus that malfunction at will- free to good home- will deliver.....

whatcha think??? LOL

Overall the wedding was lovely- the whole day. I was so excited, not nervous and forgot to pee prior to the ceremony! LOL The chapel was packed with friends and family and totally full of love. We had taken Boy pictures and girl pictures prior to Chapel arrival- it was important to me that we didn't see one another before the service. I was so anxious to get the ceremony going- to smooch on that cutie pie of mine!

We were lucky enough to have friends that took pictures and video, and those that helped with keeping Fishstick cool, calm and making funny faces to the audience. It wouldn't be a picture or group there of without a goober one from the 'stick'

To my surprise, when walking down the isle the Reverend that we had rehearsal with the day before is NOT standing at the Alter. Oh no, it's this turd-tastic guy that is very used car salesman like when getting you to book the Chapel. It wouldn't have been a problem, except that he totally bombed our service. We had opted for our own vows, a unity candle, and a mellow Unitarian type service. What we got- a few Bible verses, a lot of "Jesus" and "Lord"'s, a "Father, Son and the Holy Ghost", no unity candle and our vows forgotten about.....
Luckily we made it through it and got the big ole smooch in there! (Thank goodness he didn't forget about that!)

After all kinds of pictures, that I cannot wait to see (because Tracy Olsen rocks the shutter like no other) we made our way to our reception. It was beautiful, perfect, exactly what I had pictured in my head for the past six months! And it was FULL of people we love. You can't get much better than that! I heard that the food was great, the bar was hopping, and our DJ played fantastic music!

The cake was so pretty, and I also heard it tasted fantastic! We were almost nice to one another when cutting it, but somehow we both ended up with frosting all over our faces, and yes the Groom decided to lick it off my face....... sticky much??? LOL

After the reception, our carriage- a Cabby on a bike- Smiley- came to get us to take us to the after party we planned at the Starline. Ticket to Ride was the band, and my goodness it was AWESOME! Beatles music, drinking, dancing, laughs and hugs. The perfect ending to a crazy day.

We are dancing and schmoozing and having a grand time, when these two end up on stage, deja vu style from this past Rogue festival. They have pirated our Unity candle and our vows from the Chapel. They pulled us up on stage with Dezzie and Nic to say our vows and light our Unity candle. It was amazing!


After getting family members into cars and saying a few good byes- we got a chance to step back and relax for a few before getting ready to go to our hotel room for the night... no nothing funny like that- we ordered a pizza and went to bed! LOL

Sunday was brunch with family and friends, opening a few gifts and hitting the road to Tahoe for a week to bask in our wedded bliss. It was beautiful. We talked about the whole adventure from pre wedding to where we are now the entire time we were gone. The sun shining, the water so blue.



And now back in the swing of things we are having a blast, kickin it with the kitties and getting back into our baseball watching and relaxing. But here we are- The Fishsticks!

A big huge ginormous thank you to all that attended, took pictures, laughed, drank, danced and helped out so much with everything. You guys have no idea how much we love you for all that you do for us!

And I'm spent...

LOL

The wedding was awesome- and snafoo's just made it that much more memorable. Thank you so much to everyone that was there, that helped and that took all kinds of pictures!

I'll write a full on blog of events later, but just wanted to say hi! :)

The real countdown begins...

In four days life will be a bit different

In four days life will be officially different

In four days I will marry my best friend

Time flys so fast

The planning, the paying, the laughing and crying

So much has happened in the past 8 months

The last little details that need to be tended to

Family and friends coming from all around

Da Count- one of the most amazing women I know

Always head strong

You amaze me

you make it all good

i love you

this one's for you

:)

Not understanding...

That's about where I've been now for two days. Yes I am planning a wedding, yes it will be stressful, yes I have been more organized than ever with this whole process. So why then is it so stressful? Outside influences/ obsticles/ people/ words.

Not that outside mind you, they are from family. A family that I put all of my love and free time into because they are my family, because I love them enough to do that. What do you need- okay I'm there, I can't be there in 2 hours how about 3? You're down in the dumps, let me take us for pretty toes...

Yesterday was especially difficult. I run so hard and so long sometimes, and need to not, but am never "allowed" not to by the family. When things are done for me, I day thanks more than I probably should and am always answered with not a "you're welcome" but with "you had better be, especially with how much money and time was spent on you."

I stopped asking for anything. My wants and needs are simple. I have asked very little of them with the up coming events and still get shit. They were upset with this because I wouldn't let them control how my one day was going to be, the fact that what Fishstick and I want is simple and fun. No no no that's not how it is to be.

I'm a fish swimming upstream, against the crowd most of the time. I don't do the status quoe it's just not me. I don't feel like I need to be a sheep and to do something just because it's "the way things are done"- f That.

Talking to a girlfriend last night made me realize how lucky I am that I get to start my own family. That we get to set a pace, set the mood for how our family is- although it's just us and the kitties, small but filled with so much love.

Friendship, love, listening, patience and consideration for one another. That's what I want. Guilt and greed are horrid. They make me cringe and make my tummy hurt, as well as my heart.

I can't change them, I can however distance myself. But I can make my new forming family something people are going to want to be with.

DaCount- Focus

Since we were small, my sister has always been so very driven, so focused on everything. It started with tap dancing, then school, then ballet, running for student government, SAT scores, getting into college, and finally maintaining as a college student. Now shes looking at post grad programs to jump into.
She has always been a bit more black and white, level headed- I'm the emotional one. I haven't ever envied something more in a person.
It has taken me so much longer to find a prize to keep my eye on, and to work my ass of for it.
So heres to Nanner, and her focus, and to me finding mine! :)
