Dream Warriors, Don't Wanna Dream No More

The title has nothing to do with this blog but, "Dream Warriors" by Dokken is possibly the best 80s soundtrack song. Aside from "Princes of the Universe" by Queen from Highlander. And with this first paragraph alone I think I've lost you all.

We're not here to talk about songs made of epic awesome. No, we're here to listen to me ramble on about moving and getting married. You'll listen (or read intently) by god or I will sing the entire "Princes of the Universe" song NAKED, so help me!

Anyways. Sunday was the big move day. It was unbearably hot and I wanted nothing more than to retreat to the nearest AC filled room. But, alas, I wanted to be in my own home much more so, boxes ho! Luckily it only took one trip to the townhouse but it took FOREVER to get everything in. Who would have thought that one could have so much stuff from ONE ROOM. That's beside the point though. Point is, we moved in in a somewhat efficient manner. It only took us what seemed like all day though.

The week was spent trying to get settled and me getting more nervous about the wedding. I didn't really think I'd get nervous but I did. However, come Friday I knew I was ready. While the nerves were still there, I just...knew. After running around trying to clean since we were holding the reception at the townhouse, I scrambled to shower and get dressed. Before I showered, Kacee and Griff arrived and then soon after Christina and my parents arrived. Kacee and Christina helped with my hair and makeup and as soon as that was finished it was time to go. We all hurried to the courthouse, took a ton of pictures, got the licence, and then my aunt and uncle arrived with the kids. We shuffled downstairs and the ceremony began. Derick was a bit nervous as he recited the vows but he did it and I smiled the whole time, happy that it was finally here.

Afterwards we all met back at the townhouse and Christina started to cook. I felt like I should be cooking but everyone insisted I needed to sit down and relax. So I did for the most part and after everything was ready we ate and watched movies and it was AWESOME.

Hopefully Griff will send pictures soon. When he does I'll make another post but for now I'll leave it to the imagination.

Also, something totally unrelated to the latter. I was scanning Facebook last time and came across a note that kind of shocked me. I won't go in to details but in the back of my head I had called it years ago though realistically I was still kind of like, "wha? Really?" Maybe later I'll divulge what the post was really about but for now I feel it's not my place.

For now, however, I need to finish getting dressed for work. I go in a 3 and don't get off until 10. Same for tomorrow I think. I need to look in my planner to make sure. But at any rate, I'm off to retail hell.

Good Morning Nine O' Clock!

Let me start off by saying that before I got a job I slept until noon, possibly two if I was being extremely lazy. Now, however, I can't sleep past 9-9:30 and I hate it. As I type this Derick is sleeping and I'm jealous of that. Sadness.

But, on a completely different subject: we are moving! I signed a lease on Wednesday and tomorrow (Sunday) we'll be moving everything in. Bits and pieces have already been moved in though it's mostly kitchen stuff that was purchased. Though sadly, buying stuff has left us with barely twenty bucks in our account to get us by until next Friday. It'll be okay I think.

Jeez, now I'm yawning. I don't have to go to work until three so I may saunter back to bed. Though I'm expecting a call from w co-worker who I'm giving Henry (our outside cat) to since we can't take him with. It needs to be Sunday though so I can start moving the major stuff in. But it's Saturday and I have to work from 3 to 10.

Let's see...School! Yes, school. I'm behind in every class. Frick. Tonight I have to somehow crank out TWO essays for English and email my Anatomy professor explaining to him why I haven't been around for oh...a week and a half. I've tried calling though that isn't working so maybe another ten or so emails will do the trick.

Totally random but amusing: I suddenly have the "Bonjour" song from Beauty and the Beast stuck in my head and I've resorted to listening to it on YouTube or else I'll be singing it ALL FRICKIN DAY! Yesterday I was singing "I want to be like you" from Jungle Book. I'm lame, I know this. But I'm also awesome. Awesome is awesome.

I had more to blog about, regardless if anyone cares but my brain is dead. I need to go get dressed and take Henry to Mindy. And then to work. Ugh.
