Wedding planning and Irish dancing

Getting married is tough. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone...

ELOPE. It'll save you a lot of money, hassle, stress, etc. And maybe you'll get a down payment to a house instead of a 20k wedding (that's the average cost I hear).

Blah. Have to pick out bridesmaid dresses now too.

In other news I started taking Irish dancing lessons. And boy is it aerobic. And challenging. But I think jumping up and down makes you feel happy. Kind of like smiling making you feel more happy than frowning. It's odd. Anyway, I like it because I don't have to do anything with my arms!

Bellydancing is not going so well here after my move from Virginia. Not very many good teachers, but there are a couple of prospective classes starting in August and September.

Aaaannnd, my tablet finally got so bad I had to get a new USB cord for it. Sent it to Wacom to get fixed and bought a Bamboo as a temporary substitute. Funny thing, I like the Bamboo better for general computing. Less movement needed on the 4x6 than on the 6x8, but I still was ecstatic to have my Intuos3 back. I think you can change the screen ratio for the 6x8- I'll have to try that.

I have to tell you, Wacom has the BEST customer service I have ever run into. Every single person I've spoken to projects friendliness and willingness to help. If you're getting a tablet, I would recommend Wacom solely based on how NICE the support people are, and how they don't forward you to India.

That is all.

Heres a better idea... tell the girl to go F*** herself and dont get married or be with anybody at all. That way you'll have TONS of money and you can do whatever the hell you want. So what if you'll never have children, so what if you;ll die in your mid-40's alone with no friends or family. At least, you died without having to give up your life.

I truly believe that there is no one out there for me. This is why I think this way. If some girl came up to me and said they liked me... I wake up because its just a pipe dream. No living being on this plane of reality would even look at me let along give me a chance. I used to be a nice, caring guy but since women dont want to give me a chance or go out on a date, I'm left to be this bitter, angry person destined to die alone and a virgin before the age of 25.

I've obsessed with such thoughts in the past myself, but then I realized that the only thing they can ever be is a self-fulfilling prophecy. You just have to live life and see what comes along.

Congratulations! I hope money doesn't become too much of a distraction away from your big event. :)

Such a happy day for you. =3 I know all the stress is ridiculous with a marriage, but I'm sure you'll pull through- you're smart enough to handle things that could come up. =)

lol well that was obvious, didn't you know stress comes free with your paid order? er...wedding? ^^ totally normal. In the last wedding I went to, the bridesmaids dresses were handmade you know. and if a friend of yours is willing to do it, it's a lot cheaper, and easier than trying to find matching dresses that work for everybody y'know? ;)

Ahhh! Ours cost over 20K too, but that's 20K in pounds, not dollars! :S

Congratulations though :)

My 1st anniversary is coming up in a few weeks. Being married is awesome. You just gotta know how to diffuse arguments by asking questions; "Why do you feel that way?" "What makes you think that?", and then gently correct misunderstandings.

I considered getting into Irish dancing a while back. Of course, that was before I was married, and I was thinking it could impress "teh ladies". Now, if my wife woke up to be jumping up and down to "Reel Around the Sun", she'd probably just think I was on drugs...

At any rate, I wish you all the best, and may you have a wonderful family life! Pax!
