Wow, all of those are amazing! I desperately want to do those now. "Wedding" suddenly seems like such a lame theme. I read this comment to my fiance, and he added this one:

Ugh, that first hairdresser sucks! But the current one sounds great. My last two hairdressers have been absolutely wonderful (I just moved to a new city and had to find a new hairdresser. I met her today, and she is lovely). Unfortunately, they both live way too far away from my fiance's hometown to conceivably…

I've been in four weddings. My former roommate's wedding, she just had us pick out a yellow dress that hit somewhere around the knee (above or below the knee. The yellows didn't have to match) and we wore brown cowboy boots (she was married in Steamboat, Colorado, it was really nice). Then I was a grooms-woman in my…

Wow. Those people suck. That has not been a problem for me, but my dress looks pretty damned white, even though it is technically light gold. But if someone did say that...I mean also...no, I am not a virgin. Is that a problem? Are we really going to giggle over this?

Gorgeous! I look wretched in white. But gray, blush and light gold all look good on me, so that's what I'm looking for.

Not necessarily. For some cultures and religions, one's soul inhabits every organ of the body and organ donation is akin to wanton possession of every person saved from said organs. To that person, not only are you unable to move on to the afterlife, but your soul is split into pieces and will affect/harm other…

Well, there's no right address to go to to shoot up a bunch of people.

I don't see any humor in that sentence. I don't understand how that could make you laugh even if you disagree with it.

That is sad, and horrible, and all the worst things in the world, and yet this family saw through their grief and was able to give someone else a chance at life. That right there is the very best of humanity. I cannot imagine something more beautiful coming out of something so awful.

Donating her heart is a beautiful gesture from the family to give another child life after such a senseless and tragic death.

Absolutely. I haven't filled out my new Japanese license yet, but my TX license and my long expired military ID both clearly state my donor status. I keep the latter both because of the donor status and because it is the only ID I have with my blood type on it.

What a disgusting, horrendous murder. I hope donating her heart (such a brave thing to do) eases her family's pain a little bit. I wonder if this can/will be used as an example of why more gun control is necessary in the U.S.

The poor family and that poor girl.

I fully acknowledge I left my dignity at the dressing room door with my own bra and underwear.

Thanks, it was great! Even the crazy Bronx cab driver from the 50s we managed to have for an officiant, who gave my red dress a truly scathing look and scolded me in the chapel for trying to hold my bouquet during the ceremony (!).

But yes, everything you've said makes so much sense! I totally get it. And I can't say…

Yeah my sister was under so much stress planning the whole wedding it's a good reminder that I might not want to add one more thing to The List.

I had the same issue so I went with dark purple.

I think you're right about the polished hair v. romantic dress thing. Flyingover said the same thing. You are both so wise. I think I will try out Emmy Rossum's look, maybe a loose, low chignon, and a faux bob. All stuff that gets my hair up but is still kind of tousled and curly.

Well now I want to share, because flowers!
