Maura

ahHAHAHHAHAHHA GLENDA! ROTFLMAO!!!!!!

also -- i spent some time on some of the websites of restaurant chains near where i work looking at the nutrition facts so i know what i can or cant eat. i keep the list at my desk at work so when i run out for lunch i know what i should order. when in doubt, order a salad with dressing on the side, no cheese. if you like stuff like chipotle - you cannot have guac, that will push you over 15 grams alone because of the high fat content of avocados, even if it is "healthy fat" - remember alli does not distinguish between healthy & unhealthy fats

i started telling my guests who havent rsvp but are coming that if they dont officially rsvp with their meal choice on our website, they wont be eating dinner at our reception!

omg HOW RUDE! i hope you said thanks, but the party was last week!

glenda --- theres always subway --- they have a number of sandwiches of 6 grams of fat or less haha -- i typically bring my lunch with me everyday in my purse so i can control what i eat so i make better choices.

jess id call the mortgage appraiser to ask if they were there to snap photos. also, did you get the license plate #s?

haha yari. btw the coupon is ONLY good for the 90 or 150 pill starter packs. the walgreens by my office didnt have the 90 or 150 starter pack, so i have to go to a dif walgreens after work to get it.

im sorry if this sounds harsh --- you have a degree, and its time you start using it. dont let your personal feelings get in the way of what is best for you. when you start to think about the ways that your boss treats you (that you never thought were in any way offensive or bad before), that should make it easier. you have a degree and it is not too much to ask to want to be paid closer to what you are worth. its offensive to me that he suggesting going to a construction site to scrub toilets on the weekend because "money is money" - REALLY TRULY offensive. IMHO, go get a job where they pay you what you're worth and give you benefits to boot.

I just wasn't expecting all of this 2 weeks before the big day! its called the bugambilias terrace -- here's a pic of it: OH! btw forgot to mention after i bitched about the cake price, they reduced the price from $250 for a 3 tier cake to $50 for a 2 tier cake. ALSO - i was NOT told about the infinity pool or la playa being closed for a few weeks, but probably because my wedding is in august this doesnt effect me

Ceramic-plated irons have fewer hot spots than metal-plated irons, and they combine heat with ionic and infrared technologies to seal hair cuticles for a smooth, shiny finish. This helps preserve hair’s moisture, and is frequently recommended for color-treated hair because it can help the color last longer.

But I'm going to wait till after the wedding b/c right now I feel more pressed to take care of other things. But I am def getting James ring from Bluenile. I just need to wait for him to go get measured and then I am ordering it. Its kind of exciting to see a guy get a ring. I don't know why but I'm so used to girls being excited about the rings but I wonder how James will feel. LOL. G, let me know before you order Jimmy's ring - I have some blue nile discount codes that are still valid from when I purchased Jose's ring. I'll give you the codes -- I have them written down at home so I can text them to you if you're going to buy the ring over the weekend. and well, you know how Jose calls that photo of him wearing his ring my wedding porn LOL i was so psyched when he got his ring and tried it on!

youre gonna need a ceramic curling iron and some good hairspray. i would even recommend looking into B&B hair powder - it's great for creating a little extra volume at the root.

glenda, you could get something inexpensive from overstock.com like i did as a placeholder - http://www.overstock.com/Jewelry-Wat.../2361/cat.html my wedding band i posted earlier in this thread was $99! i'm going to upgrade after the wedding. if you order it today or tomorrow, it should get here in plenty of time for your wedding still

i think one of the things that irritates me the most about it also is that among my friends, i am known for having excellent manners (seriously, my friends call me all the time to ask me etiquette questions) and for my personal correspondence skills. i am the queen of the thank you note. ask anyone on the forum who i am close with how quickly they've received thank you notes from me if they did something kind that required a thank you note. although i may cuss like a trucker sometimes, in proper social situations, i am a pro. because all my friends know all that about me, you would think they would have the decency and respect to show me the same level of courtesy that i would show them if the roles were reversed, ya know?

Whatever you do don't take a pill before our next meet-up...you have to make sure you can eat naughty stuff! jamy, the only reason i am going to take alli is because right now i cannot get my dress zipped! otherwise i would have no problem with doing it the hard way!
