gfrancieIn a fit of activity I built a small garden bed, transplanted the cosmo and weeded the other bed. I also moved a spinach plant that was going to pieces, dead-headed the rose bush and watered the tomato plant and the pumpkin plant. It was a good day to play Vita Sackville-West. (minus the rampant lesbianism) I returned phone calls, took care of some laundry, shaved my legs and acquired a subscription to Cook's Illustrated. Now I need to finish making some soup and hand-wash my "unmentionables" and fold some laundry.
This is my day off. *rolls her eyes*
I am beginning to take a look at shoes. I know I know, "You are just now looking at shoes?" What can I say? I am lazy. I adore shoes with the best of them but frankly the sight of most wedding shoes does not impress me. I have looked high and low and damn they are often quite ugly. I think I will find a nice pair of heels for the ceremony and then wear a pair of ballet flats or something for the reception. To my bridesmaids: Find something comfortable and don't spend a lot of money if you are smart.
Maybe I will wear a pair of bright burgundy shoes! I am feeling slightly contrary. The shoes could go with my bouquet. Plus I can't just buy a pair online because I have wide scary feet and fitting them is like fitting Divine for hot-pants. (damn near impossible) I am not too worried about it but it is just something to work out at some point.
So I have a little over three months until I get married. Excuse me while I have a quick anxiety attack because of all of the things that need attending to. *runs around, flapping her arms and saying, "oh no oh no oh no".* Okay all better. I am going to have a friend of mine go with Mr. Jenner to pick out his suit. It isn't that I don't trust him (because I do with most things) but he is a man and I have seen many men go and purchase an ill-fitting piece of clothing because they don't want to be bothered to take the time to see if it fits. This friend will probably take along a gay man to find a good sale. Mr. Jenner didn't quite understand that he couldn't wear a black suit to an afternoon wedding. Folks it just isn't done. You don't wear black suits unless it is an evening wedding or you are attending a funeral. End of discussion. He should be grateful that I am not asking him to wear a formal morning coat. Hee. It isn't a terribly formal wedding and we aren't in the royal enclosure at Ascot. A lovely grey suit would be most appropriate I think. Anyways......... On saturday I ran into the little girl who is going to be the flower girl at our wedding. She showed me her brand-new sandals. The most amusing part was her toenails which were painted black.
She is five. Nothing more adorable them a cute little blonde girl with goth nails.
Now back to your regular programming.
YAY! Let's applaud our friends to the North (if you are American) and their enlightened ways.
I will have the good taste not to mention the speech earlier made by Mr. Bush. After all it is approaching dinner time.
