A fatal attraction to cuteness.

OK, I am having major problems. I am about to enter into the biggest commitment of my life, something ULTRA-adult, and I am cooing over little HELLO KITTY accessories!

I can't help it guys. I've loved Hello Kitty ever since I was teeny-tiny, and my mother told me that the "K" on Hello Kitty's overalls stood for my name. (I was as self-obsessed then as I am now - I totally believed her!) I thought her name was "Miss Kitty", and I thought her FIRST name was Kate. I was wrong, but I still love her - and I love these
Tarina Tarantino bridal accessories! Obviously some of them are a bit too big and bold for my look, but even if I can't wear some of this stuff on the big day, I would love to rock this in my hair on the days leading up to it, or flash this ring at the bachlorette.

And... since no one will see it... I can really see myself wearing this under my dress. I am not doing a garter toss, so I'll get to keep it. ;-)

Man, but this stuff is expensive. Maybe best kept for the fantasies. My mom will destroy me.

Hair we are.

We could hear about the annulment ANY DAY NOW, which is exciting. It could also be in weeks, so that isn't. I am still staring at the aquarium contract, I didn't send it yet in the hopes that maybe we would find out beforehand. I have to send it this week though, and plop down our first chunk of change on a deposit. (!!)

I decided how I want my hair to look, and I'm excited. I started using the Picasa album on my gmail account to hold "inspiration" photos - I could never put such nonsense in my precious Flickr photostream - and now I have a bunch. Here is my little Bride Hair album. The young lady in the photo I've posted has the hair I like best, I hope she doesn't mind me posting her photo here. I love the way it looks with a veil, I like that it looks "special" without looking too formal... I love it.

Hair is important to me. I'm from Jersey. If anything, this is almost as big a deal as the dress.
