Mournful Musings for some Random Reason

Ky:  *groans…* “Nate, I think I’m dying.” *clutches stomach*

Nate:  *wraps Ky in a hug* “Oh no!  This weekend will be all about you.  What do you want to do?”

Ky:  *Grooooooooaaaaaaaannn* “I want to watch movies!”

Nate:  “Okay.  Let’s do it.”

And so it begins all due to Nathan’s sweet sympathy.  Little did he suspect . . .

[Friday Night]

[The Vow.]

Ky:  *sob* “No!  Channing Tatum go after her!  Don’t give in!  My heart is break-[hic!]–ing.  *sob*  Chaaaaaaaanning!!”

Nate:  *pats Ky’s back* “Uh, his name’s Leo, Ky.”

[Saturday Morning, Nate at work]

[A Little Princess]

The movie:  *in a choked voice* “Papa!”

Ky:  *choked sob as she lies curled on the couch* No matter what, Sara, I swear, *sniff, sob, hiccup* you. are. still. a. princess! WAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! *buries head in hands with tissues*

[Saturday Afternoon, Nate still at work]

[Pride and Prejudice]

The movie:  “I beg you most fervently to relieve my suffering and become my wife.”

Ky:  “Darcy, no!  She will love you!”  *sniffle, cry* “Oh how could you be so proud??  Oh, why is my heart breaking?!”

[Saturday Evening, Nate STILL at work]

[Glee:  Prom-asaurus]

The TV show:  *As Quinn and Santana sing together to “Take My Breath Away” by Berlin*

Mike:  “You really are crying?”

Tina:  “Well I’m sad.  I don’t want this to end.”

Mike:  “What?  Prom?”

Tina:  “No, more like all of it.”  (Note:  This is a loose paraphrase.)

Ky:  *sobs while shoveling Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups into her mouth* It’s so beautiful.  *sniffle*

The TV show:  *Quinn stands after being in a wheelchair for so long*

Sam:  “It’s a prom miracle.”

Ky:  WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

To sum up the weekend . . .

May the Midol be ever in my favor.  And may The Hunger Games NOT make it to DVD any time soon. 

 Ky:  "WHHHHHHHYYYYYYY????  Bring me more Reeses!!!"

This has been *sniffle, hic* Ky; signing *sob* off.

Kylee Chisholm-soon-to-be-Ervin’s Wedding Checklist

Up here in dear ol’ Rexburg, a new semester has started, which means Nate and I will probably allow our blog to fall by the wayside.  What with very different jobs, sporadic schedules, and other knickknacks to worry about, I don’t know how we’re even going to see each other.  Fear not!  I may be lazy when it comes to other blogs that I’ve started, but when it comes to my favorite fiancé’s blog, I’ll try to make time. 

*

This paragraph was written three weeks ago.  Yes, school has taken over our lives.  Yet, Nate still stops me randomly, asking, “Have you updated the blog lately?” 

Man, that's a full schedule!

My response is always something like, “Have you seen my schedule lately???”

So needless to say, I’ve been the hold up on the post update, but the blessing is that this Saturday, I actually have some time to start on some projects that have been bugging me, and this is one of them.  :D   Be proud people. 

So, without further ado, I present

Kylee Chisholm-soon-to-be-Ervin’s Wedding Checklist:

1• Create a pinterest account.  (Be sure to make a board for all those wedding ideas.)  Then go through the website and search for the most impossible tasks out there to complete in six months.  Get discouraged when you realize how unrealistic a 50’X20’ canopy tent with black and white stripes is when your colors are teal and yellow, and you are planning to have the reception indoors.

2• When deciding your decorations, pick the single most difficult decorations you can think of and assign the entire creation of those difficult decorations to yourself while you are in school and attempting to keep excellent grades at the same time. 

SUPPLY LIST:  6 billion yards of fabric, 2 trillion sticks of plastic for the hot glue gun, 3 embroidery needles (because you will lose or break two of them), 3 winds of thread, and a bucket load of patience.

SIDE NOTES:  Have a background in cross stitching and crafting with a dash of natural procrastination as well or none of this will ever get done.

Ooo, look!  A bouquet.

3• Involve your man in as much craft construction as you can (even if it means bribery or blackmail.)

  

Let it be known that Nate helped of his own accord.  I have the best man in the world.

4• When registering, DO NOT go to Bed, Bath, and Beyond.  Not only does it take 3 or more hours, but you’re trapped until you get it all done with Chipotle right across the parking lot (this may or may not be a lie) and they have too many comforters and quilts to choose from (this is truth).  Also, the people at these stores stick the item you want most on a really high shelf that is only just within reach . . .

Where's Kris Gayda when you need him?

. . . While a second, more accessible form of the product sits on a shelf at waist-level, pushed back so you can’t see it on first glance.

Curse you box of desirable spice racks!

5• When registering, DO go to REI. 

The I-just-registered-at-REI-and-I'm-the-happiest-guy-in-the-world face.

  

6• Apologize every few minutes to each other. 

SIDE NOTE:  She will need to apologize more than he will.  

SIDE NOTE TO THE SIDE NOTE:  Plan a wedding before you call me sexist.  You’re welcome. 

7• Stick to your guns on 5 issues.  Let your family go overboard on the rest.  (No matter how many times they say it’s your day, it’s not.)

8• When you realize it’s only three months until your wedding, don’t look at your list of “to-do’s” when you have a mountain of homework to get through.  (Just . . . just don’t.) 

9• Panic.  (Or cry.  It depends on the person.)

This has been Ky; signing out.
