Listening to: Kristy, Are You Doing Okay? - The Offspring
So I thought I'd try this whole sitDiary thing again. It's been three months today that I started dating Jesse. When things are bad, I usually need to write. Since March 1st, I haven't needed to ... I had a p&p journal before then and that's pretty much the day I stopped.
Now that we're engaged, I'm generally happy and not too stressed, but lately people's expectations about the wedding have been grating on my nerves. We both want something small and simple. I keep joking with Jesse about just eloping. It is really a joke, but part of me wishes getting married was just that easy ... I don't want all the bells and whistles; they don't mean anything to me. I'm more looking forward to what happens AFTER you get married ... you know, the "living happily ever after" part, so to speak.
I guess I'd like to keep up this writing thing just to bitch about what everyone else wants and how that's not what we want. And talk about how awesome it is being engaged. :)
I have been thinking a lot about weddings recently. I feel like they're following me. My parents wanted to watch a movie about weddings. A woman at work brought in a slideshow of her daughter's wedding from last fall. You're engaged. What the heck.
I want to be engaged!
