Ever since we got the news that I got an offer from Under Armour my mind has been racing about the wedding. Figuring out where Jon and I were going to settle before/after the wedding was the biggest stressor in our lives up until 2 weeks ago and I think it was preventing me from getting excited about the wedding. As the countdowns on our registries kept ticking away I wasn't feeling excited, I was feeling anxious - that September 10th was just this huge deadline in which one of us had to find a new job. I was almost certain that as soon as we got the news that I had the job all that stress would melt away. And it did, for a few days, and now I am starting to feel the pressure to pretty much complete all the wedding plans in the next week before I move to Baltimore. My mind has been racing at work, at the gym,while I sleep, you name it, and if I take a minute to think about the things I am stressing about I really think I am going crazy.
On Sunday, my mom and I picked out and bought all the candy for the candy bar (don't worry guests, it all has a shelf life of over 6 months) and I literally was tossing and turning all night dreaming about what we were going to do if the bowls don't get re-filled. I actually lost sleep over half empty bowls of pink candy.
Yesterday, I spent 3 HOURS thinking about how I was going to get Hokie Bird wine from Blacksburg to Pennsylvania. I think I ran though 50 shipping/driving scenarios before I realized that I have a friend who is still in school and I will be seeing her next weekend. I don't even want to know how much we would have spent on shipping cases of wine to someone that lives out of state (because its a law that you can't ship alcohol in Pennsylvania) and then driving to them to pick it up. I am pretty sure it would have cost more than the actual wine.
I think I am going to get an ulcer in my stomach trying to make a decision on plastic vs. glass glasses for beer and if people are going to think its tacky to have plastic cocktail plates. I swear, my mom and I literally made a pro/con list on plastic vs. glass! This is the problem when you have 2 people who both care too much about what other people will think.
I have got to take a step back and try to think about some more important things. Maybe once I get down to Baltimore and Jon and I have house/apartment hunting to focus on that will help! I can only hope, or else I might have to invest in some Tylenol PM and wine.
