Now I've learned
What the term bridezilla means. I gave in last night and went and did the registering thing. You know, where they give you a lazer gun and you scan the UPC code on all the stuff you want people to buy as a wedding gift. We went to Target & Bed Bath & Beyond. I think the final #'s of what she scanned was something in the 200's. Mine was about 50. I noticed women tend to scan things more sensibly then guys do. She had things like cookwear, towels, sheets, toiletries... I had things like 3 Million Candle power spotlight, Coleman Propane Camp stove, Stainless steel meat tenderizer., and the best was probably the 20 bottles of different varieties of liquor. All the best were on there. Jack, Jim, Jager, Crown, Captn., GreyGoose, Absolute, Makers, ect... I could go on and on. I think I scanned a few bottles several times. But alas, we both agreed to delete the booze. Not because some family members might find it offensive, but because knowing our friends, they would actually buy some for us, then show up a week later wanting to drink what they bought!
Needless to say, it wasn't as painful of an experience as I thought. Pretty fun actually.....

Just so you know, when Doubledroptines and I got married, he DIDN'T go with me to scan, but I went through the tools sections,etc. We got 2 things from the "guy stuff". A step ladder and a laser level...DON'T get your hopes up...

It don't matter what you put on the laser list, people will buy you what they think you "need". Like crystal... and mismatched towels (grease rags)... and stuff that makes you go WTF?!?!
By the way, cheap crystal crap makes a GREAT muzzleloader target, especially if the idiots don't include gift receipts.

I don't know how I missed this post the first time around. You might be a redneck if you ask your girlfriend to marry you while deer hunting. I ain't gonna laugh too loud because I popped the question when we went fishing. The fish were not biting so I romanticly said, "since the fish ain't biting we just as well go into Lincoln since we are so close and buy an engagement ring". Hell she made me stop at ShopKo and buy a clean shirt to wear into the jewlery shop beacause the one I had on was filthy. Congradulations!!

Congrats on the engagement. I remember our pastor telling us to do something we truly, truly enjoy on our wedding day that we'll always remember. Wedding pictures were at 2:00. I caught about a dozen nice bass that morning, got off the water about 1:00. Grabbed a big ice cream cone on the way home and hit the shower at 1:45. Made it by 2:00 and my buddies in the wedding were waiting with a cooler of beer. Make it a day you'll never forget.
