The Conscious Bride

Please read this book - if you are engaged in planning any fashion of ceremony to celebrate the union of two individuals in love - otherwise known as a bride planning a wedding.

I've only one chapter, and - oh my zumla! - much of the last six months is beginning to make sense...

I've recently observed, experienced and am coming to accept that there is an "underbelly" to all the wedding glitz. I thought that I could avoid it by planning an alternative ceremony and party. And I am avoiding a lot of the stress, but I'm not avoiding the confusion from emotions I've not experienced and for which I have no context.

So, I'm excited to have found, at the recommendation of L (Thank you!), this book - The Conscious Bride: Women Unveil Their True Feelings about Getting Hitched.

968!

That's the number of cd's labeled with one sharpie. How do I know that you ask? I spent a mere four minutes reading Rob's website. He spent the two months necessary to find out how much is inside a sharpie. Thank you, Rob!

Please check out his other incredible adventures and experiments!

And then we can all feel better that we don't "waste" as much time as we obviously could! I feel better anyway.

One Minute of your Life

MADONNA! MADONNA! MADONNA! MADONNA!

Six weeks ago, I fulfilled one of my life fantasies - seeing Madonna in concert.

Sara, Nadine, Nadine's brother Steven, Jess and I went to the concert in San Jose. One of the best parts of the show was dancing to Madonna singing Like a Virgin while doing a pole dance on a saddle that went up and down while going in a circle (think carosaul) -- on the closest stage to us. Like, Right There!!!

That's what's going on in this video, filmed on Steven's phone and posted to YouTube.





I'm on YouTube!
