REK For Real

We picked out the tuxes. They are gorgeous. A black long tail-type cutaway jacket with a red vest & euro tie. Very pretty. My dress is ready to be picked up but I am leaving it in the custody of my bridal shop (Bridal Corner) for now as I am at a loss as to where I can keep it safe from animals and people. It needs to be laid out in a quiet room away from potential harm. Good luck.

My bridal portraits will likely be taken at some point next month. So that’s exciting. Next week we are going to Atlanta to visit the fam and attend Rachael Dunn’s wedding. That will be fun. Can’t wait.

So further to my previous post about being a fan of Robert Earl Keen, get this. Last Saturday we went to Suede in Park City for the show. We got there pretty early so we swiped a few chairs and sat along side of the front stage. We had a great time. I drank many Shiners, and danced and sang. What a show. Afterward, Robert Earl was signing autographs and we got to meet him. Jon took some pics of us together, which I hope to post soon, even if they didn’t turn out so great. Over all we had a blast and it was a time I won’t soon forget. Thanks, lovey you’re the greatest.

Splitting Headache

Yesterday I experienced the most intense headache of my life. It was a bona fide migraine, and I was literally physically ill. It was so strange. I’ve never had anything like that happen before. I had a stressful day, and that could have contriubted, but I’ve never full on gotten ill from stress. My right eye felt like it was being stabbed from behind and I couldn’t keep it open it hurt so badly. My vision was blurred and after a few hours the nausea caught up with me and I tossed my cookies. Thank God work was over and it was time to go home. I slept most of the evening and on into the night. I feel better today but I’m a little fearful it could come back as my sinuses have been problematic in the past. Watch out. I suppose I’m just fine, however, since my appetite is back to normal. Oops.

Tick Tock II

The clock is ticking. Ten week countdown is upon us. Eegads.

I should be doing something wedding planning related right now.

Who, me procrastinate? Never.

Fat Lip

So right now I’m stalking this pan of lasagna from dinner last night. I can’t wait to heat up my leftovers and go to town. There is a problem, and a reason that I have not yet dug in. Half my face is asleep from the dentist’s anesthesia. Yep, drooly face here had a cavity and had to have the thing filled. It was actually on a tooth that already had a filling so the doc actually had to pull out the old composite and refill the entire thing.

I know, gross.

After the initial shot of anesthesia, the dentist started to drill and I winced as I could still feel a little bit, so he shot me up with an extra dose. After about 15 more minutes of waiting he went back to work, and the entire thing was over in about 20 minutes. Not too bad, except now the entire side of my face is void of sensation and I’ve got a big fat numb lip & I’m afraid to chew anything.

And so I sit. And wait.

The numbness is starting to wear down now, and my mouth is a little sore. But I don’t think it’s too sore to chew lasagna. Well, maybe a little, but rest assured it is not likely to stop me.

B’bye.
