S/O fake plants my UO is I think it is a waste of money to have real flowers at a wedding. Seems like way too much money for something that will die before you get back from your honeymoon
We did all fake flowers at our wedding and saved hundreds. Plus I get to keep my bouquet forever!
We had real flowers at the wedding. All ours were either potted or cut directly from plants in the greenhouse.
I got so much grief about wanting to have the wedding in the family greenhouse. But it was awesome to have a $0 flower budget and yet a room filled with plants. I planted and grew anything I wanted special, otherwise I just picked out flowers and huge plants from the retail floor. We had about 15 7-8ft tall castor plants and flowering maples.

I have a UO. Parks without bathrooms are ridiculous. If I get to one of these parks we get to spend about 30 minutes until one of has to pee and we have to leave.
@acethebase I hope your feelings aren't hurt. I'd feel left out too if i thought someone ignored my gtg invite.
And we all know by now that I'm a softy and I you all.
Anyone wanna brush my hair? I have curly hair but there's already a caboose so...
:-?
No my feelings aren't hurt, I realize I was the joke of the day. I actually feel like a total ass but I guess I deserved it . I'm glad everyone got laughs out of it but I know a few were just being jerks.

Count me in. I love LOVE it when people brush/play with my hair! Akarpabakdhab. MMMM. Can we have a back scratching train/circle next?
Omg @chelseyestelle you are my new BFF!!! I lovelovelove back scratching! My college roommate and I would scratch eachother for like hours watching tv and not studying. It's so relaxing! I make DH do it almost every night. I usually just pet his head/hair while he falls asleep so I think I have the better end of the bargain...
I LOVE my 1 Louis Vuitton handbag. It's classic. I never have to change with seasons. It goes with everything (presumably this is a UO in and of itself).
I justified buying it as I promised myself I would not buy another handbag (like, ever, or at least for a very large number of years. So far, I'm 5 years without buying another bag). If I bought Coach /Michael Kors bags, do you know how many I would have??? And how much that would cost??? Let's put it this way, I donated/gave away 25 Coach and Michael Kors bags over the past 5-10 years as I would never "go back" to a bag once I got a new one.
OMG HOW MUCH DOES LOUIS VUITTON COST? Did you just compare it to 25 Coach bags?? I'm too cheap to even buy one Coach bag...
1 LV bag does not necessarily equal 25 Coach bags. I had accumulated A LOT of Coach bags in my life (remember, I'm one of the "older" bumpies on here). Many of those Coach bags I did not purchase, but rather were gifts.
So, yes, I spent a decent amount of money on 1 handbag. #sorrynotsorry
Everyone chooses to spend their money on different things. I can easily say it's FAR cheaper to have a LV bag than to 1) smoke, 2) drink, 3) eat out (just a few examples). I am the "have a budget" queen and manage money accordingly.
I wasn't trying to sound judgy (#guessifailed). It's none of my business what people spend their money on. If I wasn't cheap and/or poor, I would buy #allthefancybags. I really thought you were saying an LV bag cost what 25 Coach bags cost. I was thinking that one Coach bag costs like $200 at the outlet so 25 is like 5 grand and then I was sad that I'll never have 5 grand to spend on a purse. But it appears that is not what you were saying and even if that is what you paid, more power to you and your awesome budgeting.

Ugh all this hair brushing is making me wanna vomit. #dontinvademybubble #personalspaceissues
Yep. When it was just a funny metaphor, I was all in. But the more people talk about brushing and ruffling and running their fingers through someone else's hair, the higher up my shoulders start to hunch. I'll be honest with you guys, anyone (other than a close loved one) who tries to touch me too much gets their hands slapped away. It's just a reflex.

I never wanted you to feel left out @acethebase. It just really rubbed me the wrong way when I was accused to ignoring you, when I never meant to & did respond. Plus the whole "makes me want to vomit/Get a room" thing really put me on the defense. There are lots of friends (especially LB's) on here who have inside jokes or whatever, not just me & @mmhodges07.
I would deft love having a nearby bumpie to get together with and do cute baby things with- especially when the weather warms up. I just haven't gotten to know you very well. Are you on FB or anything?
And lastly- Getting my hair brushed is pretty much my favorite thing, so I want in on the chain, ladies! #hatedbeinglastonthechain

I'd go if it were convenient for me. But I wouldn't pay for a special trip.
Total waste of money, resources and time.
