My busy weekend...
Well, the last couple of days have been crazy. Avery has been at my mom's because Jed was going to be gone all day yesterday (and it was his Friday at home with her) and today we're attending a wedding, so Avery will be there until Sunday. I miss her terribly.
Last night we attended the rehearsal dinner for our friends that are getting married today. I arrived to find that someone (and I hold all those punks responsible!) let Jed get totally shit-faced drunk, and then of course I was immediately put on damage control. I made him drink many, many glasses of water, and in the three hours I was in Palm Springs, he had sobered up enough to continue making intelligible conversation (for the most part).
We took a few pictures, none of which came out very well -- except this one where Anna and I were trying to mimick the prom pose. Her husband told me to grab her butt, I did, and you can see what ensued from there. She has spoken at length about how great her ass is on her blog, and it had been too long since I'd goosed her. I'm a serial gooser, what can I say? I even was known to goose my grandfather from time to time.
Anyway, as I sit here trying to figure out what the hell to wear that 1. fits me and 2. doesn't accentuate the fact that I still have 'baby weight' to lose, I can't help but wonder what over-the-top wedding surprises are in store for me tonight. I'm not sure if Jed was exaggerating or not, but last night, as he shared with me about being 4 minutes late to the rehearsal (Anna and Kristin claim it was much longer, who knows) he said that he quickly realized that this wasn't just a wedding, it was the one-hundred-thousand-dollar-matrimonial-production thrown by a pretty affluent family in our town. I don't know if the 100K part was right, though I suspect it probably was. As a groomsman's gift from the groom, Jed took home a Kenneth Cole watch, and I didn't sneak a peek at what Anna got as her bridemaid's gift. I am confident it was something fabulous.
So, off to celebrate wedded bliss in the desert again. Wish me luck that I don't look like a cow and no one knows that my shoes are from the little Chinese shoe store and cost me $17.99.

Cute picture, you don't look like you have "baby weight"! You look great! I hope you had a good time at the 100k production.
