Monkeys and keyboards aside, one Random + CSS still doesn't make poop.

We went out to Philly yesterday for a friend's wedding and, as I told the boy, because I had one last bouquet to catch. (I got it.) I was midway into scaring people away from the garter fuck you this has nothing to do with a playing field with my tale of "Yeah, the last wedding we were at, some other guy caught the garter--then I punched him in the face" when one of the groomsmen overran the entire deal with his rendition of the Soulja Boy dance.

(Note: There shall be no no NO Soulja boy played at our pirate affair. Or any songs over thirty years old.)

But yeah, the entire point became moot when the drunken dance-off began. (There's still a fairly good chance we'll have a drunken dance-off too.)



We have our invitations printed, burned, aged, rolled, and in their t00bs; we get to address and mail 'em today. But upon skimming the second already-printed page, I noticed I'd put an apostrophe in Lowe's. Checking the internet now says I did right, but for a little bit I was pretty certain I'd done wrong. Cue grammarian spazz-flail--the closest thing you'll see to me doing anything bridezilla-y.

But! But but but. But then we found out--the hard way--that our friends had given us an address for their chapel that didn't exist, and that their directions for the reception involved a completely wrong turn.

I don't feel so bad now. :P

"Oh hooooney," I called. "I need a hand."

Zen knows the drill by now: I go rock-hunting, load my trunk a little too much, and require assistance dropping my findings in the yard without wrecking my car any more. So he put down his video game & came outside, I opened the trunk . . . and he started swearing.

"Pick it up," I told him.

"Are you kidding?"

"Pick it up."

"How the hell did you get this in there anyway--" He reached out, hefted it a little, and stopped. "Oh."

Sandstone: All the look of granite at only about seventy pounds per bear-sized boulder!





I planted a little baby oregano in front of it and am filling in the surrounding area with shale, ornamental grasses, and coffee grounds for mulch. Here's to hoping it doesn't do something awful when the weather turns. :D
