Jabber jawing

Blurb my brain:
I have never hated work as much as I do today. It isn't even the customers. Today they are actually pretty easy. But I think it is the combination of me getting up at 4am, leaving David, catching two flights, cab ride and being at work all before 11am was the start of it.

My jaw doesn't feel much better. That's the other reason why today sucks. The swelling has gone down, my mouth has nearly full movement again, but my jaw is just SO sore.

Like I said, today's been a slow day. But I am still talking about 3 times as much as I have all weekend, and it is wearing me out. My poor jaw.

Shit is biological as well

Blurb my brain:
Yeah, typical of my biological father. Takes a joyous occasion and turns it weird. My biological father has been trying to re-enter my life since I turned 16. He'd stalk me on the Internet, and send me messages. Every time I would tell him to get lost, go away, I am not interested. He never understood it, so I decided just to stop replying.

Well almost a year later he sends me a message congratulating me on my union.

Fuck. Now he knows my name, and that I am married. Is this piece of shit going to congratulate me on every life event? Is he gonna tell me how happy he is for me when our first child is born? Will he congratulate me on my first house? Tell me how cute our first dog is? I hope to all heaven he won't.

Chuck, and you can and will read this, because you stalk me. Please take the hint. And it's a very blunt and straightforward hint: leave me the fuck alone, I don't want anything to do with you.

Marriage causes cancer

Blurb My Brain:
Well, I am officially Mrs. David. Ok, so I can't say his last name as part of practicing good Air Force Wife-dom. We got married on Saturday. The wedding day was so nice. It was sunny, about 60 degrees, and a slight breeze.

And when we went to get my medical clearance starting with the dental, I had to be denied. I had a pigmented lesion on the inside of my right cheek. The dentist wouldn't clear me until I were free.

David called my pigmented lesion Klaus. Because its evil and may be cancerous.

So Thursday I had Klaus removed. Then David packed me into the car, all drugged up on Percocet and we drove to Montana. Been married only 4 days and already I have cancer.

But yesterday was our reception in Montana, and my cheek was stitched up. David had it just as bad. My poor husband had a stomach virus. He spent most of the day on the toilet while my mother in law and I decorated for the reception.

Today is the hell day though. My cheek this morning was so swollen I had to use my finger to pull my cheek away from my teeth enough to close my mouth. Ice pack on, and pain meds in the body, I think I may survive.

What a great first week of marriage, eh?

Maids of Honors, brides, grooms, and maids, and men

Blurb my brain:
You don't know this, but I get married in a couple days. Therefore a TON of people are coming in town. My maid of honor arrived Sat, and my bridesmaid just arrived today, and my final bridesmaid arrives in two days. Fiancé's half arrives later in the week.

It's all coming up so fast. I can't hardly believe that the days until my wedding can be counted on one hand.

I keep getting asked if I am getting the cold feet people sometimes get before the big day. And I can honestly say I am not. It's a weird feeling to be going through, because after you have been with someone for a couple years you find things kind of fall into that realm. But it's still very different. I will be marrying this man, and he will be my man and I his woman for eternity.

Fiancé's been pretty awesome as of late anyway. He has been cleaning the new apartment and cooking and grocery shopping and buying things for around the apartment. I am not really a material girl, and often get angry when he buys me (even practical) things.

So cold feet? Not in the least. Weirded out that I will be a misses? Yes. But as weirded out as I am, I truly am excited to be married and have a husband to go home to. :)

Murder by Death

Blurb my brain:
Yeah, so I bought tickets to see a show 3 hours away with the fiancé. He really is the greatest person in the world. He drove to pick me up, and drove me back to see a band he's never heard. Granted he didn't pay for the tickets. But I still had a blast.

A band called Brass Monkey played first and they had kind of a Murder By Death and Decemberists mix to them. I enjoyed them but they played forever! It was like an hour and a half that they were on stage. I went through a beer and a vodka red bull by the time they left the stage.

Then Los Vigilantes took the stage, and it was a totally different feeling. They are more punkrock, and sang in Spanish because they were from Puerto Rico. One of the band members even said that this was the highest they have ever been. The only bad part of their performance is that they started a hipster mosh pit and Fiancé kept having to fling hippies. That was very funny. (by the way, my phone autocorrected "hippies" to "hippos" which sent me into a rant about how completely opposite those two things are) But the lead singer stopped and took out his knife and threatened the mosh pit for hurting the girls around them.

Then Murder By Death was up. They started with Kentucky Bourbon and then went to As Long As There Is Whiskey In The World. I don't remember what was next, but they eventually played Fuego! In which I almost raped Fiancé. If you've never heard Murder By Death, listen to the above mentioned songs and you'd see why. His voice is so deep it makes my panties all hot and in a bunch. So I continued recording the show and ended up using the remaining space on my phone. I ran out of room in Brother, which pissed me off because I was recording it for my brother.

Fiancé did not enjoy the show. But I had an absolutely fantastic time. I had been waiting so long to see Murder By Death. My ex got me into them my sophomore year in high school and i never got to see them since they aren't a very famous band. They don't tour very many cities. The show was just so high energy, and so much fun, and so much what I expected it to be.

I am a very satisfied Alyssa. :)
