I can't sleep... which sucks cause i have to drive max to work today. ugh. My mind won't stop right now.
We might have to cancel our photographer for the wedding, all depends on whether or not she'll be willing to do just the ceremony and some of us afterwards. She only does 2 packages for weddings, full day and 3 event. So i'm waiting to hear back from her.
The morning of the wedding (the getting ready part) isn't going to be all that interesting. Max and ryan will be downstairs, waiting around and playing videogames. There is a 99.9% chance that my bridesmaids won't be showing up to help cause one is in another wedding that same day and has prep to do for that and the other thinks it'll be easier if she just meets us there. So no real use in having pics of the guys playing games and me getting myself ready... which is easy and quick.
1. put on corset
2. put on dress
3. comb hair
4. walk out door
well ok, the putting on the dress and corset will require max's help cause there is no way i can do that on my own. They both tie at the back after all. But over all there is no real point to it. And there won't be family help, like from my mom or grandma or anything cause well that's not grandma's thing and mom won't even be in town until right before the ceremony (as in hope they make it on time, and don't fall asleep through it). Mom isn't getting even a day off for this. Which also means i'll have to dye and streak my own hair, which sucks. I can do the main dying of purple, but putting streaks in afterwards i don't really have any experience in. And the girl who was supposed to do it decided this week that she won't because she doesn't have any experience with non-natural colours. So why agree to in the first place then? So mom was my back-up cause she's pro at that, but she doesn't get the day off, so she'll be working all friday night, then driving in saturday morning... knowing her they probably won't get out of edson until 11 at the earliest, which means they should show up at 1:15-1:30. ceremony starts at 1:30. And if it starts late we get charged an extra $50 for ever 5 minutes over.
As for the receptions well, the friend's thing is probably getting cancelled cause it will be just me, max, ryan and 1 bridesmaid. again no real point. I've overjoyed that i didn't order a wedding cake. Cause that would have been a big waste of money. Most of the people who haven't cancelled on coming have to leave immediatly after the ceremony. "Sure i've known since summer that my son was getting married on this date but i don't want to take sunday off from work, wouldn't be right to miss a day"
And who really wants pics of me and max cleaning up the comic book store, packing away all our shit and the extra favors from people who didn't show?
It's disappointing isn't it?
Sorry, i'm just pretty pissed about all of this. Starting to think that maybe we should have just done as my mom would have liked and eloped and then not told anyone. I should never plan things, they never seem to work.
As for buying a house, we start looking this weekend. But we have no money for a down payment... so once we find a place we want i have to figure out exactly what it the amount for that would be and then see if i can get it from the bank account that i paid for school from, the one that's my mom's money but is my bank account in trust. Well ok, for 6 years it was my money, then last year she informed me it was mine, i was borrowing it from her and i have to pay her back all the money that was spent while i was in college (including the $1200/month rent for the building they made me get for 2 years, yea made me. I literally didn't have the option). Which equals 28,800 just for rent. Now add bills, groceries, and 16,000 for college and that's a shitload of money.
I have way too many things going on inside my head right now... fuck.
