Last night I had one of the strangest dreams I have had in a while. Let me begin by telling you a bit of background. My ex and I were never right from the start. He used me and abused me seven ways to Sunday. Including having me as his back up girlfriend when he had a girlfriend in the public eye. Totally horrible situation and it ended very abruptly. I actually finally cut ties with the guy the same weekend that I met my wonderful future husband. All in all it was not ideal and I never totally dealt with the way he treated me.
Well every once in a while he pops up in a dream. Last night my dream went like this. I had made my famous chocolate chip cookie bars that I love to make and had just pulled them out of the oven. WF came in and lovingly took a slice from the end of the casserole dish the way you are supposed to cut into it and told me he loved me and left. Ex BF comes in and starts his normal ways of schmoozing me and flirting with me. I felt guilty for appeasing him but told him he could have a cookie bar if he wanted one. He proceeded to cut into the dish right in the middle. Taking a huge piece out (which we all know the middle cookies are the best part) and chomping away. For some reason (who knows why really) I told him it would taste better if he poured hot coffee on the cookie while he ate it but not to let it get cold because then it would be gross. He then took the whole pot of coffee and poured it all the rest of the cookies, ruining them for me and for but most of all for WF. I was so upset because WF just took his part and loved it and did not mess with the rest, saving it for later. WTF is that? He then sat there and acted like nothing wrong. I yelled at him and told him he ruined everything and he just continued to sit there like he did nothing.
I told WF about this dream because I felt so guilty about having it. He then started to analyze it. He came up with the idea that I think the EX BF ruins everything and if I ever let him back into my life I would be opening myself up to that. I came to the conclusion that I am the cookie. WF just took part and respected the rest and loved it. The EX BF took the best part of it and ruined it for WF. I am always effed up, and he did this to me.
What do you think ladies?

I am into little boys...
Not really but man Taylor Lauter is one hot piece of ass! (I think he is only like 17, I am a dirty old hag!) Can I get an Amen?
I will be watching Eclipse this weekend to avoid the embarrassment of being the oldest person in the theater like I was last time. I can't wait to see if this movie is going to be good! I love Twilight and all the other books. I have read them many times over. I am team Edward normally. But Jacob in real life is one sexy piece!
Weekend Recap - Why I should not drink anymore
Friday - We celebrated Ben and Janet's engagement at Z-Tejas restaurant in downtown Austin. They wanted to have a "get to know you" wedding party party, and I think it was a great kick off to their wedding events!
I got there a bit early to get a table for everyone, and get set up. Plus I was rocking my boot (pictured above) and I wanted to make sure I did not fall down the stairs in front of people while carrying stuff. While waiting for everyone I decided to beat the heat with a margarita. After some more time everyone else got there and I ordered another margarita. Then it was almost 7 and happy hour was almost over so I ordered another margarita. And another just in case. After realizing that I was sufficiently wasted I proceeded to start spouting off all the bad words in German I have learned from WF. Kelly then mentioned she was drunk and I felt better about my being drunk. So what do you when you feel better about being drunk? You got that right, I ordered another margarita. For those of you counting I had FIVE margaritas in one night. Yes that is right FIVE.
Saturday - THE MOURNING AFTER, yes I spelled that right, I was in mourning for my youth. When after drinking too much liqueur I could bounce out of bed and pop a Tylenol and vitamin. Well I am not that chick anymore. I woke up at 3:30 in the morning with leg cramps from being dehydrated and could not fall back asleep. So I proceeded to stay up and watch "Showgirls" and "Shrek" while crying because I was on the verge of death. It was an awesome morning. Really. I almost killed my beloved dog because he needed to pee and the thought of standing up almost made me vomit.
I (after hours of drinking water and eating dry cereal) then headed to watch the U.S. loose in the world cup at Third Base. Why there was a 30 minute wait to get into the bar I don't know. Even more awesome. We eneded the night stoping by the pour house pub for a friends birthday party. I crashed shortly after.
Sunday - We headed to Amelia's house for some R+R and Mighty Fine. Their new house is going to be amazing. We floated in the pool and messed with our dog. A great end to a hangover weekend that almost killed me.

Not a wedding post! Toy Story 3 Date
If any of you watched the original "Toy Story" movies and were concerned this would be a cop out I don't think you will be disappointed. The concept was about what happens to toys when their kids "grow up". This was a cute idea and totally made sense to the timeline. The end was well done and I am so glad they had the same people doing the voices. I hate when they have to fake the voices of famous people in sequels. Prefect example of this? The genie in Aladdin. Robin Williams was amazing and then the killed it when he did not do the rest of the movies. Anyway moving on...
The movie was super cute and I highly recommend it to all of you!

Bachelorette Party Weekend Update
I can not put into words how much fun I has this weekend. My friends threw me the most amazing bachelorette party that I could have asked for! My hostesses were Janet and Kelly, both are bridesmaids in my wedding and apparently rock'in party planners!
The big day started off with breakfast at my house. Kelly and Janet had quiches and some amazing muffins, complete with make your own bellinis. I made blueberry french toast casserole with coffee and tea. I got a perfect little coach bag from my two bridesmaids in Philly who could not make it. I immediately changed bags to use it for the day!
The event planner and great friend Molly loaded us up in our van. We had a bodyguard/driver, games and bottled water with personalized labels! We headed to our first location, Becker Vineyards and had our first tasting. The wine there was amazing. So not what I would think would be coming out of the wineries in Texas. We then sat outside and chatted on the porch with a bottle of wine bought by my two bridesmaids in Philly, Kate and Sarah (thank you ladies).
Then we headed to Grape Creek Vineyards, where we had another bottle of wine outside and took a tour of the facilities. So interesting to hear how everything was done and how the wine was made. I do have to say by this point I had had enough wine that everything was super interesting! We did a tasting in the cellar right out of the barrels and I thought that was really cool. You could tell the difference in flavor from one barrel to the next. Then we had a totally amazing picnic lunch, of which our bodyguard set up for us. I remember at this point knowing I drank too much because Molly had taken my cell phone away from me! Darn you miss Molly!
We then headed to our final location, Torre di Pietra Winery. Super cute, and had live music! I loved a few of their wines! We sat outside on their pavilion for a few hours. We danced and drank and chatted. I believe this is where I get officially "classy (maybe a bit sloppy) drunk" I know at some point there were pictures of me with all the girls rings on, engagement, wedding, just for fun because I am fab rings, all of them. Why? I don't know.
We then headed home. I believe there were some penis scratch off's, there may have been some flashing of other cars by yours truly and so on. We got home and I gave the hosts thier gifts. A Shake Weight! Let's just say this gift made the rest of the night pretty interesting. We ended the night with a dance party in the living room while chugging the four bottles champagne that miss Amelia bought us!
I spent Sunday recovering on the sofa. The hang over was not that bad, but I was so tired I could barely move. I had some taco shack and that helped. WF and I hung out on the sofa most of the day and recovered together. (He had a horrible rock star night as well!)
For some pictures check out Amber's blog. I can't thank all the ladies enough for such a fun day! I am so lucky to have lots of girlfriends and love from all of you! Kelly and Janet you both have become amazing friends over these last five years and I am so lucky to call you two dear friends. Thank you for hosting an amazing party!

Theres a party in my ... Hair?
Please excuse my Yo, Gabba Gabba Reference! My friend Amber will know the joke at least!
I got may hair trial done this week. Here are some pictures of the results. I am planning on changing the bang situation a bit and lowering the veil just a tad. But overall I love love love my hair! She lightened it up, and played a lot with the color, I really like the results. What do you ladies think?

A classy drunk...?
This weekend is my bachelorette party here in Austin. Two of my bridesmaids, Kelly and Janet are hosting the lovely event and I can not begin to explain how freaking excited I am. I wanted to have a bachelorette party but I did not in ANY way want to go downtown and do that whole thing. I hate lots of attention and I defiantly did not want to carry around a huge penis on 6th street while kissing men other than my WF. I wanted a, how should I say... classy drunk. Let's not panic people I still am planning on drinking my fair share and making an ass our of myself but I am a snob and wanted to add a little class to my drunk!
So this weekend the girls are taking me out for several wine tastings, tours of hill country and a lunch at one of the wineries! Jealous? I know you are! :) We are ending the night at my house for a slumber party, with movie watching and pizza to boot!
So now to the all important outfit choosing. What to wear what to wear!? I have picked out several dresses from Ann Taylor Loft, god I love that store. Here are my choices:
Or This Dress in hot pink. What do you guys think?
