and it begins

ring #1, originally uploaded by yenna.

it's only been a few days since andy and i decided to live in sin no longer, and i am already going batshit. typical gena you all know and moderately like.

we have a tentative date and i want to book venue[s] asap, but its so hard. i have ideas, BIG ideas. but also a very limited budget. you know, just the same problems that anyone throwing a wedding would have so i shouldn't pretend that we are special or anything. i'm already knee-deep in websites and message boards and magazines. oh, being anal retentive. so wonderful.

it's exciting! and it's going to be great, that's all i care about. it being great.

oh and see that up there?! pretty right?!!? SO PRETTY. it's my practice ring, i guess you could say and it cost $12. yup. the real ring, which i FAWN over, is not in my possession yet, so andy got this sweet fake one to trick people. it's so shiny. but i am such an oaf, i keep knocking things with it and getting it tangled in my clothes and hair. so. maybe this whole engagement will make for a more graceful gena.

though that's doubtful.
