Oh my god I'm getting married this week, THIS WEEK. Yikes. Bj came over this weekend, first time in a while since we've both been so busy. And the last time coming over before he comes over with all his crap, and by that I mean moves in. I'm a little nervous about that. I didn't think I'd like living by myself when I bought my house but I've quite enjoyed it and I have a lot of things "just so" (and fairly girly to be honest). I hope I can handle it. Well compromise number one started early. Bj set up our wedding present from his dad:
Argh giant television. And he's all talking about putting up surround sound, hello the room is like 10 feet square! You're never that far from the TV! Well we all know how I feel about big TV's anyway. I don't so much like to worship the plasma gods. Though I do watch things (like Bones over and over), I do it on my computer, or just sort of in the background while I'm working on things alone. With other people around I prefer chatter, food and games. Anyway... Oh a blog reader, LeAnn alerted me to the fact that my dresser was shown on the last episode of Ugly Betty. Hello I totally watch that show, but it's a good thing she told me because I had my head down knitting the whole time and I wouldn't have been looking for it. They had two side by side and the gold part was white. Still totally weird, first the eBay thing, then Design Sponge, now this? Hmmm. Back to wedding stuff. 
Bj did his job of getting the candy for the candy buffet... times 10! Seriously this guy got so much candy, it's so funny. It's a good thing I ordered little bags so that people can take some home! I got all the containers last week with my mom at Tuesday Morning, pretty cool place. I worked on the table numbers:
Pulled out old school supplies: vintage sign stamps, foam stamps and paint, and gold embossing powder from a middle school impulse buy at the Oregon State Fair (the wheeling and dealing barn gets me every year). And to think I almost purged that stuff! Sciarrino and I drove all over looking for goodies for the hotel room gifts, more on that tomorrow. We also "had" to stop in Anthropologie where I went totally insane and got the flippin cutest honeymoon dress ever invented, among other things. Today was all about cleaning and fine tuning. I had to totally dismantle my bedroom so I could clean every square inch and get ready for:
A new bed! Bj's parent's (mom and step dad) wanted to help us financially with our honeymoon, but we wanted something more long lasting, and what could be better than a 20 year warranty on a Tempur-pedic? My dad has these mattresses, and when ever I spend the night over there to watch Em I have the best night's sleep ever. Plus this bed is a QUEEN, I've never had a bed this big! It's a good thing I got some of the queen sized linens I registered for early at my showers, because I own nothing this big. I had homemade twin sized quilts on my full sized bed (although cleverly disguised if I do say so myself), but there is no stretching them to this size. I aired out the room (goodbye storm windows! Hello summer!) and walked all over the thing (good workout, it's like walking in sand), so I'm off to make the bed!
