I’m Getting Hitched!

Posted by Sarah at 3:52 PM on March 1, 2006.

That’s right, you heard me. For some of you who thought this day would never happen, well I proved you wrong didn’t I? Mu hahahah (that is Sarah’s evil laugh fyi; paulie knows it well). So I thought it would be interesting to write about my life so far since this awesomeness happened, indeed methinks it warrants a blog…

It’s been an interesting mix of emotions since that perfect day (Feb 13th to be exact). [Note to men: the day before valentine’s days is probably the bestest day ever to get engaged, I was out of it all valentine’s day and I liked it.] Flowers smell better, romantic movies make me cry again, the sky is bluer… okay it’s not exactly like that, but it’s pretty darn close. All these super sweet cards are arriving in the mail and reducing me to a blubbering mess, like this one I got from my grandparents… omg don’t even get me started… I will begin crying all over my keyboard. My grandparents are my favoritist couple in the whole world and I only hope to be in as much love as them when I am a granny :) *sniff* Okay, Hmmm, where was I? Oh yes. I legitimately get to start thinking about weddings now which is crazy, but crazier when I realize that most of the details have already been carefully thought out and organized in my head (since I was like 14 people). I also love the various reactions to the big news and all the random hugging that has occurred, and is still occurring to be honest. I do not, however, like the comment and I repeat “about time!” in response to the news. Yes, I know we have been dating for almost a decade, but did you expect us to get married at 16? Did you? Seriously.

I also went to my first Bridal Show and I have to admit, it was a tad scary. With the exception of Paul’s lovely sister and family, I think most of the people there were (dare I say it?) Bridezillas, Momzillas and Milzillas (mother-in-lawzilla, I just made that up, clever hey?). Crazy line-ups for cake, people elbowing me out of the way to grab brochures-a-plenty and a crazy lady with a red swollen face trying to sell me face laser treatment for my oh-so-many wrinkles at the age of 23 (think going to a dentist with rotten teeth, yeaaah right lady). I am thinking that this wasn’t exactly my scene and my presence at future similar events is up in the air at best.

Anyways, I am going to try to end this because I really could go on all day. I also haven’t stopped looking at the shininess on my finger for three weeks straight now and I am pleasantly surprised it hasn’t gotten me into a car accident. So if you see this smiley girl with brown hair, a sparkly diamond (most likely wearing something pink) that is causing car accidents, that’s me! Stop and give me a hug (or at least call 911) :)

eb:

All I can really say is: "It's About Time"....
Lol...

LoL...... ;-)

Sarah:

eb is my weird uncle fyi :P

Lisa:

Sarah it is going to be the best time!! You and Chad are a fabulous couple! Congratulations! (I loved the Milzilla...might I add...Famzilla (family)...Ilazilla (inlaws), Foazillas (full of advice) and perhaps Jeebuszilla). = )

Again...CONGRATULATIONS!!!

eb:

eb is not your wierd uncle and like your weird Aunt's say "Its About Time".... lol.....

DeeDee:

Excuse me, do you know if China Lily Soya Sauce is available at the Mac's on 22nd Street in Saskatoon?

Any help will be greatly appreciated...

Craig:

LMAO DeeDee. Hey Sarah, can we throw mini bottles of China Lily instead of rice as you and Chad leave the church? If so, I'm prepared to buy both of you boarder helmets.

A Mom in Saskatoon:

The bridal show.....scary especially for the poor mothers that have to wear that stuff!!!

Rachel:

I am sure the church would prefer that we throw mini bottles of China Lily. They don't let you throw rice anymore. Plus it kills birds?

Brittany:

You... are a goddamn moron. Grow up, nobody gives a flying fuck that you are getting married. And the reason it probably took so long, is because he had to have at least 12,000 alcoholic drinks to even think about spending the rest of his life with your dumb fucking ass.
