this sucks

Wedding: scheduled.
Party: planned.

Why the eff I'm stressing out on the details is beyond me.

Whether we have lobster or buffalo wings, taffeta or tulle, heavenly centerpieces or Wal*Mart Delite, the outcome is the same. We are not on Weddings of a Lifetime, no one's going to give us any awards for Having Inspired Favors or for Sticking To Our Theme, so why are we having grim lunchtime discussions about the diameter of our centerpieces? Is it because we're getting caught up in it like we said we wouldn't, or because we really do care a teeny tiny bit and have only to admit it so that we can get on with things?

I say let's throw the centerpieces, favors, and theme out the window, and go back to letting the rare weekday lunch together be an actual treat rather than a drudge.

I'm sure things will get better as time goes on. Remember, don't try to do everything on your own. You have lots of people willing to help you folks! :) See you on Friday!
