Happy Monday!

Got my corsets, and they are so pretty! I haven't had a good look at them as it's not the sort of thing I really want to pull out at work. The red and black one looks Moulin Rouge fabulous and I'm very excited to get home and try them on!

Trademe is so great but so terrible too.

The weekend was a good getting things done weekend. I bought my wedding dress fabric, lining, thread and zip and delivered them to the World's Greatest Mother In Law who had refined the mock-up a bit more and man, it's looking nice. Soon-to-be Father in Law was quite impressed I think!

We also put in a deposit on my wedding ring and it'd being custom-made as you read this (hopefully). It's nice and cheap and should look quite elegant with a carved koru to compliment the squirlies on my engagement ring. I am sans ring right now because they need it to match the wedding one to. I feel quite strange without it although it's easier for washing/moisturising etc.

It feels good to get things checked off the mental list, and my wedding book is getting full. I talked to my sister yesterday about some of the things the celebrant mentioned to us and she showed me a Dr Suess inspired wedding vow: "Will you love her all your life? Will you take her for your wife?"

Flying Burrito Brothers is yummy. I had the lamb tostadas and they were so good. I wanna go back there for more food. Maybe order an entree as a main so I have space for dessert. The churros will be mine!

One bad thing from the weekend: had a funny turn where something caught in my throat and I couldn't breathe properly for about an hour. I felt weak and strange and I was quite worried, but after a sitdown, lunch and some drink I felt more or less normal. It hasn't happened again since, so I think I'm alright but it was worrisome.

Spent yesterday afternoon watching Clone High, Justice League Unlimited and Vernonica Mars. I liked all three, but I'm not sure about the last one for re-watching. It was pretty hardcore, but fun all the same. Will have to watch some more and decide later.
