shut your pie hole.

never in my wildest dreams did i think i'd be blessed with such an incredible future hubs. i'm going to brag now... he is handsome, strong, determined and tough. and underneath that manly exterior he constantly suprises me by being thoughtful, caring and pretzely-cute when he says things like "baby, you can have both closets in the master bedroom."

never in my wildest dreams did i think i'd catch so much shit from my family for finally being happy. i like to say i have a very loving family but these days they are just down right opinionated. i'm sure my upcoming move to california is overwhelming them (few albrites have strayed from the family compound) but they're incessent negative comments about me moving on with my life are just pushing me away, further and faster. that makes me sad becuase i should be soaking up every second of my last 10 weeks here with them but i find myself avoiding them.

my mama has been my rock, my #1 fan and best friend my whole life. if anyone should be upset that i am growing up and moving so far away it should be her. i actually somwhat expected her to be irrational about my pending nuptials and cross country move but she has stood by my decision and been there to support me when the other irrational lunatics ladies in my family haven't.

a wise man with some crucial facial hair once said "you have to do your own growing... no matter how tall your grandfather was." his name was Abe Lincoln and i'd like him to scream that in a few people's faces for me.
