Alright this post needs to be short tonight because I lose an hour of sleep and have to be at work by 7am. Yeah, it's not my favorite but getting out at 3pm sure beats leaving work at 11pm. Anyway, tonight was much better than last night. This morning I got my monthly visitor and although I normally dislike blaming my not so endearing moods on it, seeing it upon waking did make me feel a little better about last night. My mood was still foul when I left work this afternoon and Dave tried to cheer me up by taking me on a drive but it only resulted in us getting into a bit of a tiff because I didn't think he was doing enough in regards to the wedding planning.
However, once we got home he made me sit down and rest while he did some of the planning for the rehearsal dinner and the wedding morning. Later he came back to me and showed me what he had come up with and he had some really good ideas. He thinks he's incapable of planning but I think that's just his way of not having to deal with it. I just felt too overwhelmed by everything and didn't want to think about it anymore. At some point early this evening apologies were exchanged and some cuddling ensued and we were happy with each other again.
It was about that time that I decided that I want to go out to dinner and maybe check out a couple more jewelry stores to see if we could find his ring. We "went to Jared's" and actually did find something that we both really liked though of course it is a bit more than we were hoping to spend. Our jewelry person actually gave my engagement ring a cleaning so now it sparkles like it's brand new and that makes me super happy. We also discovered that Borders is closing which makes me super unhappy but we did take advantage of their giant sale.
Finally we made our way to UNOs where we had an amazing dinner. They sort of revamped their menu and the food was delicious. However, the best part is now they have these mini computers where you can see the menu, order your dessert (though we couldn't actually figure out how to do that) and play games. We literally sat there for about 45 minutes after our meal in an attempt to score a B on the memory game. In the end we only achieved a B- and left because our brains felt like jelly. Another great aspect of dinner was that we planned out detailed tentative plans for some of what was stressing me yesterday and I feel so much calmer now.
The day started off quite rocky but everything seemed to smooth over toward the end and I feel much better about life again. Yay!
