Wedding Planning

This week I have been doing wedding planning, the fun but unimportant type like buying fabric to make bunting and investing in my 3 to 1 ratio long term underwear strategy, which I guess isn't long term any more. I also collected the blue bit of paper that means I can legally get married. We're not doing that thing where they read your bands of marriage in a church 3 times because we're getting married in a Methodist church and they do things differently from my family church. so we both have to register that we want to get married and then they put up a notice in this building and if anyone has got any objections they write on the notice and then you can't get married. I thought going a writing funny reasons on other peoples marriage notices would be a fun day out but apparently they have to be proper good reasons though you can't just put 'coz they both like the same sweets in a box of roses and this could cause arguments' or whatever. In fact they actually put the notices on a notice board behind glass so it's not really accessible for people with objections. Also we didn't inform anyone that it was going to be up that week so how are people with objections ment to know? I personally think a more up to date and logical way of doing it would be to make engaged couples write who they intend to marry as their facebook status, and if you've got an objection leave a comment. People kind of do that anyway. There's really know need for registry offices anymore, I bet mos people announce the birth of their child on facebook before filling in the birth certificate. I quite enjoyed going, I liked looking at the people waiting and decided whether they were regetering a birth, marrage or death. There were 2 old guys who looked like they were just waiting to die and then register the fact they'd just died. I liked reading about other people marriage notices and guessing whose would last longest based on their jobs and their age differences. I quite enjoyed being interigated although I couldn't remember my father's job, something about trains and palestine...but he's definatly not a palestinian train driver. When they asked if we were related I should have answered 'no' but instead I answered 'I don't think so but I don't know for certain' to which she answered 'first cousins is alright' eww. I thought they should do a DNA test just so we could know for absolute certain, because no one can atually remember who gave birth to them. Anyways if you've got any objections next chance is at the alter.

Emo Oil

You know emo's? have you ever wondered where they get all that grease that makes their hair so greasy? I found the answer whilst driving on the M602.
