Reading from "Time Keeps On Slippin'" - Futurama
Read by Katy:
FRY
Leela, about the wedding. I don’t know
what I did to make you love me, and
I don’t think I tricked you into it,
but maybe I did. And if I did, I’m sorry.
LEELA
It’s OK, Fry. You know we’ll always
be friends, right?
FRY
Yeah. But I don’t guess anything I could
do will ever make you feel the same
way about me that I do about you.

Matt's First Post: IT'S A KILT PARTY
not our puppy (or kitty)
My kilt is here with all the trimmings.
Does it look goofy? Oh, yes it does. But hey, it’s a kilt, right?
Also… it fits! Wooooo! Hooray for kilts!
Now it’s time for the education to begin.
Kiiiiiiiiilt!

I know I was bashing on it a few weeks ago, but now that the wedding’s gotten closer - I AM excited about it! Who knew?
I’ve always viewed getting married as a whole lot of work & stress, and never was never really interested in having a wedding. But I think confirming the honeymoon in Scotland helped a lot.
Also getting to refer to Matt as my husbear.
Though still not as...

RSVPs
Ugh. Its time to start bothering people for RSVPs.
Well technically, since the wedding’s 2 weeks away, its probably past time to start bothering, but this is a procrastimating blog after all!
Is there etiquette for forcing people to respondez vous s’il vous plait?

Nope, this is not an April Fool’s joke. It’s Abstainpril!
So, what’s this horrible sounding thing? Well, its my horrible idea to stop eating cooked food*, drinking (as much), and well, y’know, nooooooooot beeeeeeeeeing seeeeeeeooooolllaaaaaaaaaazzy……. *ahem*
