Late Days, Parking Tickets, Brocolli, and a Change of Heart

Ha! It's just been one of those days!!! Neither mine nor Shane's alarms went off, actually I think they did, but we both left our phones on vibrate! Go us! Lol, I woke up an hour later than I had set my alarm, therefore, I had 25 minutes to shower and get ready for the day... I have to say I did well lol. I left my house at 850 on my departure for school... stupid snow! It looks pretty, but it's not fun to drive in. Luckily Shane got outta bed early to start my car for me while I was taking my 5 minute shower so I didn't freeze. Due to the snow and my lateness I was the bad kid that parked in residential sadly costing me a $50 ticket... we'll see when I have money to pay that.
What started as a not so great day never turned bad however, except also being 15 minutes late for work! Ugh, go me AGAIN!!! I'm trying to kick my horrible drug habit of sweets and coffee... it's a killer I tell ya. So far I have had nothing sweet today but instead had cooked brocolli! Anyone who spends lots of time with my mom would know that I hate brocoli so much (i can't even spell it) that one time I was trying to get it all down in one gulp of milk and unfortunately had too much in my mouth blocking my throat and causing me to pass out. Yes children, I passed out and seizured from brocolli! No hard feelings though, my grandma made it for lunch for the little guys today and her and I both painlessly choked it down. However, drivin across town from Alta Vista to work is inevitably what continued my late day!
Now here I sit at work watching Because I Said So (a daily occurance). I've come to find this movie is my little fairy tale, along with Sex and the City, that I seem to want to live by! Maybe I shouldn't watch these movies so much or movies in general. Give little girls bad images lol. Sex and the City is a killer though cuz it's totally opposite of my life. New York City, COME ON!!! Ha I only wish I could survive there, but little hometown me could not handle all the people without becoming a total bitch... don't laugh it's the truth! We all know however that I've found my Big and God only knows that it will also be 10 years that we've been seeing each other that we finally get married...
Speaking of marriage, I've had a TOTAL change of heart. I've always wanted the big fairy tale wedding (ha just like in Sex and the City). And in fact that movie has also helped my change of heart. I always wanted to big fun wedding with lots of people to celebrate with me, the princess dress, and awesome EVERYTHING!!! Yet, after watching Sex and the City the thousand times I've watched it, I've come to realize that it's not MY wedding, it's our wedding. As much as I love my best friend her 200 guest wedding is killer both money wise and people wise. It is for her, but not for me! Are there 200 people that know both Shane and I, or heck even just me, well enough that they should come to my wedding!? Also 200 hundred people would scare the living crap out of Shane, he's too much of a keep to himself and immediate family person for that. Also, along with the movie, I've learned from work that sometimes it isn't worth the money you will spend for one day! Sure it's an awesome celebration and a good excuse for a party, but that doesn't me that everyone needs to watch me say "I do." So here's my new plan, get the honeymoon and wedding done at the same time. I love beaches they are my favorite places to be. Therefore, I'd love to go on a cruise and get married on a beach. Anyone who would like to come is more than welcome but I don't expect everyone to be there. After my awesome week at sea, I will come back and have a HUGE barbeque. Hamburgers and hot dogs all the way (my dad said he'll make Shane ribs lol) and everyone can bring their favorite side dishes. I don't expect gifts because by the time Shane and I are ready for that we will probably already have everything we need.
I'm just too simple of a person for all the rest. Plus, no wedding or ring will ever change the fact that Shane and I love and care about each other. Sometimes in the silliest ways possible like him beating a video game then setting mine up with all the extra stuff so I can beat it (even though it'll take me twice the time). Or me telling him to go to dinner by himself with his friends and I'll find something else to do. It's just stuff like that, I don't need gifts or constant I Love You's to know he does. If the boy asked me today in the McDonald's drive thru with a 25 cent ring I'd say yes because it isn't about anything but us!
