Ramblings of a man who's egotistical yet humble,
tired yet lively, hateful yet loving, unpleasant yet fun,
and most of all...
...awesome.

T minus 2 days, 23 hours, and 32 minutes...

Oh my God I wish it would just get here. This is already turning out to be an incredibly stressful week. Mother's day came and went, but not without issue. People are trying to do things for us that we don't want them to do for us. I know they're trying to help, but especially when we say things like "I'll take care of it," it's really irritating when they don't listen at all. We're trying to get Tiffany moved into the apartment before the wedding, little by little, but I honestly don't know if it's actually going to happen. We have a lot of stuff moved, my apartment's a mess, as is her room, but I doubt we'll have everything there in the next couple of days. It still seems like we have a lot left to do...

My (soon-to-be) father in law showed up ahead of schedule yesterday. I'm very glad that he's here because being a truck driver, there are so many things that can go wrong and so any stress of him not being here on time for everything is now gone, however him being here also piles on some more stress about different things. I'm very afraid that Tiffany will not be able to get any sleep in the next few days. He's a very loud person. He really tries (bless his heart) to be quiet, but even when he thinks he's being quiet, it wakes her or keeps her up. And whenever he gets home, he feels like he has to get a lot of miscellaneous things done all at once, since normally he's only home for a short time. Hopefully he'll realize that he has a week to get things done and doesn't need to be completely impatient and flushed about everything.

Last weekend was when both Tiffany and I had our bachelorette/bachelor parties (respectively). We both had a blast. Tiffany really didn't want to go out on her's, but once she got there she had a lot of fun, which is definitely good because she needed it. Her and Stefanie went to Club Rodeo and danced, which yes, does indeed make me a little uncomfortable. But I was pretty good most of the night. I left her alone until she would message me or something. Anyways, they had a good time and I'm very proud of her for scaring away guys that tried to talk to her (like telling them that dancing is against her religion and that she's getting married in a week... ha ha). Blake orchestrated a great bachelor party for me. We went to Chris Humphreys' (who is awesome for hosting the event) house and ate and played Halo (1 & 2). Nathan, Josh, Alex, and Cody Beverage joined us and it was just a really good time. The weekend was good for a break from stress.

Stress... such as finding out that Pastor Walker had a heartattack on Friday, May 4th. Tiffany and I both felt awful as the second thought that came to our minds was whether he was going to be able to do the wedding. He is, though he might have to be seated for most of it. Not a problem of course. Not to mention his wife is also incredibly sick at home and all this other stuff. Things are just getting very complicated and I CAN NOT wait to have this whole thing over with and go on the honeymoon. It's going to be nice in Dallas, but I found out today that it's supposed to rain every day that we're in Cozumel.

I write this as I'm at work for the last day until after Memorial Day. It's been an incredibly long day, as I'm sure most everyone can imagine. At 7:00, when I leave, I'm pretty sure I won't stop working on wedding stuff or doing stuff pertaining to the wedding (including moving Tiffany's things) until Friday. SIGH...
