Why Brides Lose Weight

I always heard people say "Oh, all brides lose weight before the wedding, they just are too busy to eat!"
I thought, "Pish posh."

Nobody could ever be too busy to forget a meal.

Today I have had the following:

• 1 cup coffee with sweetener and fat free half & half
• 3 Chick-fil-A chicken strips
• 1 Chick-fil-A diet lemonade
• 1 glass white wine
• 1 glass red wine

I wish I were exaggerating.  I know it's not enough food.  And nutritionally, it's severely lacking -- the food pyramid would shudder.

Here is what I got done today:

• Had a security system installed (au revoir, burglars!)
• Unpacked 4 moving boxes and broke down boxes
• Online banking
• Got together clothes for consignment shop
• Helped Ian organize garage
• Took out trash
• Had a 2 1/2 hour hair appointment
• Spent too much time in the drive-thru of Chick-fil-A
• Picked up dry cleaning
• Picked up a girlfriend and went to a neighboring town for a boutique's tent sale
• Purchased a cute-ass dress
• Went antique shopping with said girlfriend
• Had a glass of white wine in a store with said girlfriend
• Shopping at my archnemesis, Wal-Mart
• Washed and folded 3 loads laundry
• Swiffered and vaccuumed house
• Cleaned 2 bathrooms
• Washed sheets & remade bed
• Spent QT with the dog
• Organized my yards of fabric
• Had menu cards & programs printed (debacle; good ending -- story to come)
• Poured glass of red wine

Alas, it's time for bed.
