3 weeks from tomorrow

Wedding day.

My name will go from 8 letters in my first name, 5 letters in my middle name and 4 letters in my last name to:

8 letters in my first name.
5 letters in my middle name
13 letters in my last name.

Holy shit. I can't even count that high.

I ordered my cake yesterday.

It's pretty much like this.

Except it doesn't have the bottom layer.
And it isn't white - it's ivory.
And the flowers aren't white. They are light blue (to match my flowers) with light green leaves.
And we aren't having a cake topper. Unless I get flowers to put on top. But I don't think I will.

But that's my cake.

I picked up my dress today. I haven't tried it on yet. I will tomorrow.

Everything except the marriage license is done.

I am getting married.

3 weeks from tomorrow!!!!!!!!!! That's 22 days. And a whole bunch of minutes. Even more seconds.

About the same amount of seconds till I get married as will be in my entire name.

13 letters is a long name, but you'll get used to it. Eventually.

Yummy cake.

Know what, Margaret? On your wedding day, I'll be on our 20th anniversary trip (I was married practically in the womb). We're celebrating a month early (it's when we could get childcare), which basically means, I'll be celebrating for a month. Twenty years, for heaven's sakes...in this day and time, something to celebrate!

I KNOW you're getting excited...13-lettered-last name or not! (Love your cake, I "saw" it with the changes you noted :) ).

I had a maiden name that no one could pronounce or spell correctly - and it was only 5 letters. I always swore I was going to grow up and marry someone named "Smith" or "Jones". I not only dropped from near the beginning of the alphabet to the end, but also married someone with an even worse last name than I started out with! ARGH!
