I updated my wedding planning blog. And I have no idea where that post came from. I just went to it and just... wrote. And that's what came out. I said, "I know I need to blog more regularly on there, and so I'll go and update it real quick." Annnnnnnnd that happened.

I didn't mean for it to come out. And it's nothing new for any of us. Heck, it's not a new topic between Nix & me. But it's just one of those things where I feel like I've been hit upside the head and I have a moment. sigh.


The back story behind the post: Nix & I got into an argument last night about the invitation wording and his vest color. Yea. I know. Stupid crap. Stupid. Stupid. Crap. My mom wants the invites to be worded one way, Nix doesn't like it, he wants it this other way. Me? Honestly, whatever. They're invitations. Will they have the time/date/location/etc on them? Yes? Okay. That's all that matters. Who is inviting the guests, whatever. I don't care. But my mom does. And apparently Nix does. And my mom doesn't like the idea of the vest color I mentioned to her and she's been fixated on it. I've tried telling her that no mom, he isn't planning on wearing a teal vest, but she's still flipping out about it because she thinks it will draw attention away from me and blah blah blah. -.-

How many times do I have to tell her that I don't want this wedding to be JUST ABOUT ME??????? sigh. I love my mom. I love my mom. I do, she's my mom. I love her. But she can be so frustrating some times.... What I know is going to end up happening is that I just will have to get my mom all mad at me because I'm just going to say, "Mom. This is our invitation wording. This is the color vest he's going to wear. It will be okay, I'm still marrying him. The invitation wording doesn't matter. No one will say, "Oh that invitation wording was absolutely great!" And Nix wants to wear a grey vest. I want him to be happy, since, after all, this is HIS wedding day too. He will stick out, but only because he's going to be the only one in a tuxedo. He will stick out because he's going to be the only one in a grey vest and white shirt. He will stick out because he's going to be attached to me all night. It will be okay."

I'm just not looking forward to that conversation, because I know she won't follow the script I have written out in my head.

But on the bright side!! I bought plane tickets last night so we get a weekend together in February!!!! Which means I have to call a bunch of places and set up appointments with them to meet with them. But I'm FINALLY going to see our reception venue!!!!!
