I'm northeast of you, but I'm always happy to meet in the middle somewhere to have a buddy to ride with!

I pick my dress up in a month. You know, I never realized why people freaked out about fitting into their wedding dress. Now I do. The alterations lady had the bodice done yesterday, and it felt...tight. Apparently it has to be relatively tight to hold up a strapless dress and make it actually move with you, which I didn't realize since I've never had anything completely tailored to me before. I was all standing there wondering whether all of this swimming had done something to my back since I last came in a few weeks back. She explained it all to me and I feel much better now. It looks great, and I'm really excited about it.

She was politely horrified by my swim tan lines, which are...prominent. Oh well.
