Tidbit Tuesday #28

Why do I feel so guilty when I don’t blog? :( Or when it’s 8:43AM and I haven’t prepared for Tuesday yet? It’s quite silly, I know. But I have so many of you to blame, and to thank. So many of you, both friends and strangers have written me pledging your undying love for Tidbit Tuesday, and I’m blown away by the response every time. It has been so much fun sharing my life with you all these past 27 Tuesdays. Here’s to many more!! :)

On Saturday, Dylan and I realized a massive conundrum in wedding planning (among the many, many at this point). We still needed to get our marriage license, but there were no offices open on the weekend, which is the only time Dylan and I can actually be present together. Props to mom for making some magic happen and connecting us with her good pal the town clerk, who licensed us even without our birth certificates. The funniest part of the whole thing was how many questions Dylan had to answer about himself and his parents, and how the clerk filled in all my answers without asking because everyone in Sharon knows everything about everyone else.

What will I ever write about once this wedding is over with? :) Hopefully you can deal with more wedding drama for the next three Tuesdays!

I have sad news: Mony is being a real jerk lately. :( He’s no longer my sweet little boy. He’s an old crochety man who meows persistently in an extremely annoyed “PET ME ALREADY!” tone. I’m sorry to say Mony, but I think you’re losing it. And you’re making it easier to leave you and get a bulldog named Sully instead. :)

RestorationHardware.com. Once you discover this site, you’ll never go back. I mean, you WILL go back. Over and over and over again. I plan to make my apartment look just like this website. One day…

Yesterday was a monumental day in the life of Alyse: I had sushi I didn’t like. :( T’was very sad.

So, Dylan and I desperately need your help! 1) PLEASE pray for sunshine on June 13th. I keep checking the forecast 20 days in advance, but only see a historical national average of around 70 degrees. Pray for not too hot. Not too cold. And birdies chirping in the air! 2) We are finally assembling our wedding reception play list! Shout-out to my girl Lindsay for footing us her list! Yes, I know, I don’t deserve such things. BUT! Are there any songs that you just could never live without? Comment it up!!

Cue the guilt: this is the shortest Tuesday evaaa. But my to-do list grows longer every day. I will leave you with ONE more sneak of Thursday’s post, if that’s quite alright! I know you must be dying from anticipation, right? ;)

Happy Tuesday! And don’t forget to comment with song ideas!! :)
