At least the dresses weren't peach, or green dotted swiss.
Hoops. Heh.
At least those dresses covered a girl.
congrats bro...
The dotted swiss was for a Catholic wedding. The groomsmen had to help all the bridesmaids get back up after they knelt coming in...
thanks...it might just work out after all...
I guess the bride forgot to check to see if the girls could genuflect in hoops. Silly oversight. ;o)
Was she 'channeling' Scarlett O'Hara?
She grew up with us in SW Virginia, but her family moved to Colorado before we graduated. She wanted a "southern" wedding.
Hmmm. I should have gone with that. Little Sister #2 would have loved hoop skirts of dooooooom. She wanted a big butt-bow, after all.
So your dad was just born when I was in college! Just call me Gramps!!
On the downside, I have to work a half-day on Friday.
On the upside, if'n I can fit it into the van (might have to make more than one trip with pieces), I get a nice desk out of the deal, with lots of filing space. So I don't have to have stacks of papers and pens and all on the top of the desk. Can set this desk/table/thing up with just the 'puter and move all the other frap into the spare 'oom.
heh... she stuck with a loser this long...
Tell her she can have a butt bow on her own wedding gown!
Are you getting the desk from your workplace?
Helping another office move, and they aren't taking their furniture with 'em. They're giving whatever gets left behind to Goodwill...so it's up for grabs.
Nothing fancy or pretty, but lots of paper organizing space, and room for books, which is more important to me. It comes apart into three pieces, so hopefully it's relatively portable.
Ugh, I figure she's likely to put me in the butt-bow then.
We had half-day-old pizza in ours (you take what you get on midnights).
Heck, who needs fancy as long as it works!
RuhRoh!
You know someone with a truck, you know :~)
Heh...I know...but I feel bad always asking for help! Especially for stuff I *want* rather than pretty much need.
BTW, I talked with my brother for a rather long time yesterday and he's eager for me to see their new digs (they're renting a house instead of being in that complex...*shudder*), so the current deal is that I'm supposed to go up, go with them to the sister's for dinner, and hopefully not stick around all that late. They plan to eat at two thirty or so, sounded like, so I could take off before it was seriesly late.
I really do appreciate the other offer, though!
