Ah can't believe I'm leaving in less that 2 weeks for the cruise!
So psyched you don't even know.

Picked up my dress last week. To my surprise and excitement it's WAY too big. Like I have to physically hold it up if I wanted it to stay on. However the people at Manhattan Bridals are super nice and instead of telling me I needed to get the whole thing taken in they are just going to bring the back in so at least it will fit on top and then will just be flowy. It's very cute but I still feel huge in it. Maybe cause I tried it on with Missy who is like 5'1" and way smaller than me. Not sure if I've lost weight or if the lady measured me wrong. I also bought the Spanx but it doesn't really make a difference. I'm going to keep them though. They are so comfy and literally make me look two sizes smaller!

The bridal shower was so fun! Hill and John for lots of cute stuff and we had the perfect amount of food. Missy got the most amazing cake from Konditor Meister and yeah it was a good time. Lots of work but fun! Andrea was the best for letting us have it at her house!

Hillary already gave me my maid of honor present. Two gorgeous Coach bracelets. Yeah bet you didn't know Coach had jewelry either.
This is one and this is the other.
Missy and Robyn both got the second one also.

They're so cute. I was super excited.

Hillary's Bachelorette Party was also amazing. I saw a side of me that I don't want to see again any time soon. I'm the one known for being so laid back but I was running that show like a slavedriver. We had to be at dinner by 7 and then Jake Ivory's by 9:30. JI's threatened me that if we weren't there he would charge my credit card $200 bucks and throw away our reservation. Seriously.

I probably should have a heart attack. Dinner was AMAZING. Seriously everything was super. We went to Teatro in the theatre district. Drinks were awesome. Food was better. Hillary enjoyed herself.

Made it over to Jake Ivory's by 9:32 and the guy at the door assured me we could have been there by 10:30 and still been ok. He was super nice. The guy on the phone was not so much. I have never been there but damn it's officially my favorite place in Boston. It's right behind the Green Monster and def the best piano bar in the world. They brought out 4 bottles of Champagne for the 15 of us. And then brought us out the x-rated cake for Hill.
It said "Hillary the best is yet to CUM".


Equipped with a big rice krispy penis. Wish this picture was from the front lol.

They got her up on stage a few times and she HAD to give the piano guy $20 for Tiny Dancer. It's tradition. At the end of the night Robyn and I ran around getting guys to kiss Hillary. It was hilarious till we found the guy who wanted to kiss all of us. He was hot though lol.

We made our way home around 2am. Drunk and full of energy we ate our leftovers and chatted till about 4:30am. Woke up with John standing above us on his bed asking when we were going to breakfast. He told us about his party and we told us about Hills. Went to breakfast, ordered a ton of food and ate hardly any.

Went home and took a solid 3 hour nap. Like I haven't taken a nap like that since college. Dan had asked me to come to Dane Cook that night at TD Bank North and I was like Ok I'll sleep for 1 hour and watch some Heroes and get ready. Well I wake up and I'm like mmm it's definitely dark out. I jumped out of bed chatted with my mom and before i knew it Dan was there to come get me.

Dane Cook was insane! Great seats (thanks Dan!) and a good time overall. I got nachos and they were kind of wet but I ate them anyways. I took one picture from our seats with my camera phone but it's not so good.


But yeah you get it.

He was hilarious.

Back to the real world. Short week (and my boss told me I could leave early-ish tomorrow if I wanted). WOO!

Thanksgiving at my house then Missy and Nat's place!

Friday doing the after thanksgiving sales! I was going to by a new digi cam but I really can't afford it right now so I'm mostly going for some cheap TV shows on DVD lol.

That is all.

In less than a month Hillary will be getting married and I will begrudgingly go on a cruise ship.
Yikes!

The wedding I am excited about but the cruise still makes me a lil Queezy.

I got everything. My passport is on it's way, got my flight to Miami, and getting my dress next week.

Course between all this is planning her Bridal shower and Bachelorette party have been stressful. I actually LOVE planning stuff but people are NOT rsvp'ing. I mean hello? I just think it's rude. I would have just sent out an email if people were just going to disregard the invitations I spent hours on. Seriously hours and a cramped hand. Bridal shower is saturday and I'm really looking forward to it. We worked really hard on it and made alot of with what we have. It's at Andreas house so that helps alot and about 5 of us are contributing food and drinks so it makes it easy on all of us. She does know about it unfortunately but she needed to know what day it was so she could take off work because she can't afford to just take days off. Whatev. Hopefully the rest will be a surprise.

Bachelorette party is going to be AWESOME. Can't reveal the details (i'm almost sure Hillary doesn't read my blog but just in case) but it's going to be fun.

I'm going to get Spanx
for under my dress just to make sure I look my fly-ist (yeah I did). I've heard great things about them but has anyone had any experience with them? They seem fun and great. Need to get a strapless bra too and possibly some new makeup (I know I know me makeup?) but this is one of my best friends wedding and I'm going to want to look at these pictures forever. Haven't decided on the hair yet.

Stress.
