I really like the short and medium hair. The shaved style makes you look totally different, but its cute too. But hey, I'm not the one who has to look at your hair everyday. I totally agree with Julie, you both need to like it. you dont want to look at wedding pics 10 years from now that you both hate! Reggie - Which do you prefer?

They are too cute! You did an amazing job. Yaaay, you can check that off your to do list!

Or so I thought for about 2 minutes! lol (sorry this is a long post/vent!) Okay, so for those of you who don't know, I originally wanted to do the wedding in St Thomas, however, I was looking into other options because frankly, the Virgin Islands would be a little pricey for majority of my guests. So, I decided on the Riu Ocho Rios, even though I've been to Jamaica more times than I can count. Jamaica is waaaay more feasible for my guests as far as price, all-inclusive, etc. Most of my guests have never traveled out of the US, so I figured they would need the easiest travel/accomodations possible, as I will not be there to hold their hands. However, the date I want (8-8-0 has been booked at the Riu, and practically everywhere else! Ok, so with all that said, lol, I have been checking the Riu Ocho Rios calendar religiously EVERYDAY (Thats the 1st thing I do when I get to work, lol) and have been stalking one of the wedding sales coordinators, Carolina, every other week in hopes that my date would become available. So 2 weeks ago Carolina tells me, she will get back to me in a few days b/c there were 2 times for 8-8-08 that had yet to be confirmed and she just wanted to double check with the brides 1st. So then last week she tells me the system went down, so she would get back with me this Monday. Well Monday came and went and she finally emailed me this afternoon saying that she has 1 and only 1 slot available for 8-8-08! I started jumping up and down and screaming (keep in mind I am at work, lol) So estatic at this point!!! - lol, there are not enough smilies to show how I was feeling! So the email tells me to go onto the site and register for the time slot. I look at the timestamp on her email and its like 5 minutes in the past. So I rush to the Riu website. Then, I be damned if I dont get to the site, and what do I see, NO available time slots!!! WTF!!! So after I calmed down, lol, I wrote an email back to Carolina explaining what happened. So now I'm just waiting to hear back from her.

Cute pics! You both have Kool-aid smiles, lol. Thanks for sharing!

I used to work in a grocery store when I was in college and the stupidest thing I ever heard from a customer, on the day before Thanksgiving, was complaining about the long lines saying, " Thanksgiving is just another day. I dont see why all these people buy stuff last minute anyway!" But she was in line with a turkey!!!! WTF

One of Dog's sons was on TMZ last night saying his dad was not a racist. He was like ," If my dad was a racist, he would walk around with a bald head and a swastika (did I spell that right?,lol) " Like thats the only thing that makes someone a racist! Then he went on to say he only heard his dad say the N word 2 or 3 times, and that was when he was really really upset! On top of all that, earlier this year, he sold a story to the Enquirer after getting out of jail claiming his dad was a drunk and borderline racist! His excuse was that he was just getting out of jail and needed the money, so he let them write whatever they wanted. What a bunch of crock! I hope his show gets cancelled forever!
