I am a dork, I was totally all just like, twoday must be twosday, huh? After I typed the title to this post. And then saw it was Tuesday. Dork! Anyway… Tonight I am going back for session two on the tattoo. I have no idea how much he will be able to do, but I hope it is a lot; tattoo healing sucks. The thought of having to do it again after this time sucks more. Expect ouchies and maybe even a picture later tonight. Or tomorrow.
Now to answer another question from the thread a few days ago; if James and I were to get married (yes please!), what would we register for? Well, we would probably just register for things we need, like Lowe’s gift cards, Target gift cards, and if they offer them, gift cards to the liquor store. That last one was a joke. Sort of. We registered for stuff when we moved into our house, and while some of our friends got us stuff, the main point was to get our parents to shell out for the cool crap (can you say Calphalon gift set? Because I have no problem saying it, or asking for it). But um, they didn’t bite that worm at all. In fact, we gots nothing (except some planting stuff and things from James’ mom). Parents are weird aren’t they? I guess another thing that we may do, is ask for donations towards a honeymoon. Since we aren’t going to have a “traditional” wedding, we will probably be forced to pay for a bunch of it, if not all of it, and we totally still deserve to have a kick ass honeymoon. I am thinking Hawaii or Maui bitches, so if the time comes to contribute, get out your checkbooks; we will come a calling.
Other than that, I don’t know? Eric, those that you mentioned all sounded like great places, so I guess to wrap up my answer, I think you should just register for what you need. That way, you won’t end up with two quesadilla makers.
mmmm…. quesadilla makers….
Seriously, it sounds as though you need to totally just have a “Bitches, we needs stuff!” party, also known as a commitment ceremony! Then you get gifts AND a reason to go on the honeymoon!
Hawaii would be great! I’ve been there twice now (granted just on a layover on my way to Australia) but it was REALLY nice. My parents had a second honeymoon there and loved it (although I hear that the big island is getting too crowded now).
Sebas and I have talked about where we would like to go - I’ve always had my heart set on Paris and he’s always wanted to go to French Polynesia, Moorea or Fiji. Now that we can fly anywhere in the world for next to nothing its really just a matter of paying for accomodations etc - Paris is a quick little getaway place now, so Moorea it will be. Having said that, there’s a few places here in Canada that actually DO have travel registries for trips. Check into it, you may be surprised!
P.S. To buy liquor here in Toronto you need to go to the LCBO, the government run liquor stores. They sell gift cards there!
P.P.S. Good luck with the tattooing! Can’t wait to see what the second round ends up looking like!!!
Godspeed on the tattoo healing. I look forward to seeing the progress at the next APWBWGTTD meetup.
I WANT AN INVITE to the “Bitches Who Need Stuff Party”! Just saying…
Just keep thinking of the excellent results once the tattoo is complete
And for calphalon can you say cooking.com gift certificates? I’ve found they have excellent sales on the nonstick contemporary that I buy and also ebay.com gift certificates. Found quite a few pieces there brand new as well.
