Under A Bough Of Cherry Blossoms
Yesterday I was lured to the Willard Intercontinental Hotel under a false pretense. I thought I was going to be manning a nametag table for one of our company events at 3:00. How wrong I was. My female co-workers pulled the wool over my eyes. When I arrived I found the Hotel dripping in Cherry Blossoms and my co-workers sitting at beautifully laid tables. Once I sat down I discovered we were having a Bridal Shower Tea! The meal was slow, friendly and beautiful. I recieved lovely gift and fond wishes. It was a terrific way to spend the afternoon, especially since I missing out on work. Oh, what a lucky Girl am I!

Mega Macho
This past weekend revolved around my bachlorette (or Hen) party. I spent two days preparing for it, enjoying it and recovering from it. Such good times.
Many bloggers have recounted the naughty goings on.
For instance, we enjoyed falice themed games, sang Karaoke while highly intoxicated, participated in a relay race involving cucumbers and for some, achieved life-goals. I will add that we also laughed our butts off, took plenty of photos and amazingly managed to stumble to and from Adam's Morgan unharmed. I don't think anyone even fell down! I couldn't have asked from a better time! I yet again gratefully thank Ms. Rather be Traveling and Mr. Bad Apologies for making it happen!

Forsake not an old friend; for the new is not comparable to him: a new friend is as new wine; when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.

What A Night!
I arrived home this evening to find a package on my doorstep. I had to dash off to class and didn't have time to uncover it's contents. Upon returning home, I unwrapped the package to discover our first wedding gift! Hurrah! So exciting! The gift came from some of Flounder's family who can't join us for the event.
Guess what else! I got an A on my first paper of this semester. This is especially important since this paper constitutes 25% of my final grade for the class! Yahoo! It's been a good day.
