Back to reality

Well, I've been back since Monday but there's still a big pile of papers on my desk and the apartment's a mess. Ben's coming back from work tonight so I need to clean up and make a nice dinner. Put my wedding dress in the washing machine the other day and it survived and is now going into storage until I have a bad day and need to pop it on. The tiara is probably enough for most disasters.

I was voted chief resident today by my peers - there was another guy who wanted it and so he's vice-chief. Since we're a new program this year, I'm not sure quite what it's going to mean to be chief but so far it's a bit like being a therapist :)

I'm not sure who was talking, but they must have been saying something good!

There's no backing up in a wedding dress... you've just got to run around in a circle.

I am getting married. Today. How weird is that?

I am getting married in 2 days and I"m exhausted. Sleeping in tomorrow here I come.

so... the jeweler f-ed up my ring. ugh.

I am getting married in 11 days. I'm surprisingly calm... not quite a basketcase yet. I think that's because I'm at work. This weekend I felt a bit baskety. I've done most things. Still need to print out the place cards and mount them and make the seating chart and card box. Need to buy a guestbook. Need to figure out a way to convince my hairdresser I dont' need THAT much volume on the top. I have my last dress fitting tomorrow and then she's going to steam it and I'm going to pick it up (when I'm going to pick it up is a mystery to me...)

I'm hoping our rings are ready soon...
Even when there's not much to do there's still stuff to be done!
