The Wedding Blues (A response to CaramelD)

So CaramelD is complaining about an upcoming wedding. I'm like what are YOU complaining about? At least you're a bride's maid. Well to be fair to her, she then apologized for complaining seeing as there are worse things out there in the world. But darn it!! I want to complain too! Especially considering I got her ass beat. My wedding is this weekend (no not MY wedding i mean the wedding I'M about to gripe about) and here is my spending so far (SO FAR!! because i WILL spend more money when i get there. o and i havent bought the wedding gift yet):

airfare: $170 (and this because i started shopping MONTHS earlier)
car rental: $180 (this doesnt not include insurance or gas)
hotel: $250 (my share o, i'm staying with 3 other girls to "cut costs")
dress: $110
jewellery: $80
shoes: $40 (cheapest bloody thing on there!)

o and since i NEVER wear makeup and now i have to; and its the groom i know not the bride so i cant latch unto her makeup lady, i actually had to BUY makeup (yeah the guy is a really good friend plus he has gorgeous friends). makeup is EXPENSIVE how do (regular) women do it??

of course, the worst part is being a fresh face, tshirt, jeans, and flip-flops kinda girl, i may NEVER use any of these things again. O and remember now, I am NOT a bridesmaid. imagine if i was.....might actually work out cheaper even. SIGH

So my Caramel have i shamed you or what?

Oh and i noticed you talk about your mum. means that both your parents are alright yeh? thank God for His awesome mercies.......he he just realised you'd actually updated us on the situation. LOOK i'm not perfect OK?? at least i remembered! gotta work with the little things :)

I feeeeeeel your pain. You have me beat oh because I'm in the same city (thank God!!). Funny you should talk about the makeup. I don't wear foundation at the old age of 27 and nearly fainted in Selfridges when the gave me my total LOL!!!

It shall be well, my dear. I can't believe I am the one now consoling someone!!! Remember how happy your friend will be to see you on his big day.

Thanks for asking after my Mum! she is also emptying out her wardrone looking for which scarf to tie with her sexy traditional two piece. So you see the madness will continue no matter how old we are !!!! :)

We'll have to compare notes later, have fun oh!!!
