More wedding pics...

After looking at all my friends' wedding photos, and voting again (you can vote every day - I would be super fantastically pleased if you'd go vote for me again today! ;)), I have been looking through more of my photos, and I feel like sharing the ones that didn't make it into the top 7. Just for fun. Bear with me...I'm still a newlywed and get a little sentimental over the best day of my life. :) ::cheese!::
I promise, no more wedding stuff after this! :)

I love this picture of Mike, getting ready.

My "something old, borrowed, and blue." My mother-in-law's antique pendant, passed down to her from her grandfather. I was going to wrap it around my bouquet, but I decided that I loved the way it looked with my dress.

I love how pretty the aisle looked with these pomanders.

Me and my girls.

I think this shot is adorable...everyone making cheesy faces at us. :)

My husband is just too freaking adorable in this picture. :)

A very cool winery shot. :)

This is the photo we sent out with all our thank you's.
You gotta have the barrel room photos!

Here come the newlyweds! Ready to party. :)

Father & Daughter Dance

My cake table looks super cool in this shot...though you can only see the very top of the "I DO" letters.

I think this is such a classic, pretty picture of the cake cutting.

My nephew thoroughly enjoyed his cake... :)

Time to boogie!

Not sure what Mike is doing here...

Oh yeah, I like to get down on the dance floor!

The coolest bouquet toss shot ever...I totally threw it over everyone's head!

This shot is one of my favorites...end of the night, so romantic. :)

Thanks for putting up with all my wedding reminiscing! :)

Vote for me!

Dear blog readers:
I entered my wedding photos into the Knot's contest - The First Annual Wedding Awards. It is a competition for the best wedding of 2007. I personally think that my wedding was the best wedding EVER, so of course, I had to enter! :) Please, check it out, and please, vote for me! I would SO love to win a South African safari. I would also get my photos published in the Knot magazine. I'm sure my photographer, Angie Gaylor, would be thrilled!

Here is the link to my photos. I would be SUPER excited if you'd rate me 5 stars on all counts.... ;)

*muah!*

Gross idea

Okay, I came up with this awesome idea for a scene in a horror movie last night. Mike was totally grossed out, but I still think it's awesome, so I'm going to share it. I've had this horrible congestion lately, even though the rest of my cold has been gone for almost 2 weeks, the stuffed up, snotty nose just WON'T go away. I started to wonder where all the green boogers come from! Seriously, I blow my nose like every 5-10 minutes, and I am so amazed at the volume of this stuff. Where is it stored in me? My roommate T said that it is all in my sinuses...behind my cheeks, behind my eyes, etc. SO totally gross. I have snot pockets in my face. Makes sense why I've had such sinus headaches. But anyway.

So, I was thinking, for a horror movie, part of the storyline could be that one of the characters has a really bad cold. Then, however they end up getting murdered (it's a horror movie...almost everyone gets murdered, k?), their face would get blown off, and along with all the blood and guts, you'd see all the green boogery goo, too. Isn't that rad? I should totally be a horror film writer...LOL

On jobs and temping and getting really anxious

UPDATE:
Well, she finally emailed me back last night, answered my questions, and set up an interview time for tomorrow. I'm really excited about it. I'm just a little concerned because it sounds like she already has 4 other interviews tomorrow. I didn't realize there was going to be so much competition! Wish me luck...I'll update again tomorrow!!!

*****************************************************************************

So, I feel like my heart is going to beat right out of my chest at this very moment.

As some of you know, I received an email out of the blue last Friday from a graphic design company I had interviewed at for a receptionist job a few months ago. I didn't get that job, and I was really bummed about it, but I got over it. Well, on Friday, she sent me an email, asking if I was still looking for a position, because they are looking to hire a project manager. I have been SOOOO excited about it since then! I got in touch with her that afternoon, but we weren't able to talk, so she asked me to email her my questions about the job. I emailed her yesterday, and she will be back at work today after the long weekend, so today is the day that we need to talk! I'm really excited about this...It sounds like the perfect career job for me (from what I know of the job).

Now, the thing that is freaking me out is the timing. I am working at a crappy temp job, and I am so excited for my contract to be over. I agreed to stay til the end of February, which happens to be two weeks from now. My agent called me this morning, and needs to know TODAY if I am still leaving, or if I am going to sign up to stay til the end of March. Of course I want to leave at the end of February, but I'm still not sure what's going to happen with the job at the design firm! I have to talk to the designer today so I can find out what time frame they are looking to hire someone, and whether or not I even have a good shot at getting the job or not. This could be huge...I am about to go call her. Hopefully it will work out okay so I can call the temp agency and tell them I am still done in two weeks!!!

Wish me luck!!!

Mad Libs "Pickup Lines"

Ever heard these before? If so, run away dizzily!

• Can I buy you a sprinkle or do you just want the money?
• Your uvula must be real tired, because you've been oozing through my equator all night long.
• Your father must have been a unicycle rider, because he stole the prickly from the doorknob and put them in your pinky toes.
• Is it springy in here, or is it just you?
• Do you have cheese? No? How about a date?
• Look at all of those Kleenexes and me with no zippers!
• Do you have a Band-Aid? Because I skinned my belly button when I pooted for you.
• I may not be the most chunky guy in the room, but I'm the only one talking to you!

Final installment of "About Me" #76-100

Okay....let's see if I can scrounge up 25 more facts about me.

76) I once played a pirate in a school play.
77) I sang a solo in that play.
78) The only reason I auditioned for that part is so that I could sing that solo.
79) I used to have two pet rabbits.
80) I had a pair of stirrup pants (in the 80's, of course) that I wore SO often that the knees and butt were worn thin enough to see through.
81) My mom had to take them away from me.
82) She probably should have just bought multiple pairs for me to avoid this embarrassment.
83) My hair was very dark brown when I was born.
84) It turned blonde within a couple months.
85) I hate wearing foundation.
86) I am really picky about fruit, and will only eat it if it is cut into pieces.
87) I won't eat fruit or vegetables that are bruised or brown.
88) I used to be obsessed with catching bugs and keeping them in my Bug Zoo.
89) I used to race grasshoppers (in my bedroom!) with my neighbor.
90) I was in 4-H for most of my childhood.
91) I took two levels of cake decorating in one year.
92) My family was SO sick of cake that year, I think we quit eating cake altogether for a couple of years after that.
93) I made a cake shaped like a Gremlin (the car) for Mike's birthday, the first year we were together.
94) I used to sew clothes a lot.
95) I have a habit of starting things and not finishing them.
96) I get bored easily.
97) But at the same time, I am easily entertained.
98) When I was a kid, I was picking at a puffy sticker in someone's car, and the top picture layer came off, exposing the foam inside. (Remember those stickers? They came apart easy...) I felt really bad. Obviously, I still remember it. I tried to hide it.
99) I used to hide the cucumbers in my salad underneath my seat cushion.
100) I don't like tea.
