Well, the wedding went just wonderfully. We got married downtown at the Westgate hotel, and I would recommend them to anyone wanting to get married in the San Diego area. They were so wonderful and helpful throughout the whole process.
Anyway...I (and the Argentinian) couldn't have imagined a day more perfect. We didn't see each other at all before the ceremony, so it was a complete surprise how each other was going to look. Right before walking down the aisle, while standing outside the doors, holding on to my dad's arm, my heart suddenly started beating so fast. I don't know the last time I felt my heart beat so hard. But by the time I reached the end, and was up there with the Argentinian, any nerves had subsided, and I was just so excited. He looked so handsome. The ceremony was nice, not too long, not too short. We couldn't stop smiling and staring in each other's eyes when we got the chance. The whole night went by so quickly, looking back. What was actually 7 or 8 hours felt like 2 hours. I can't wait to see the pictures. So far we have a few from his sister that she took, and those turned out really nice.
I'm just going to get right into it...
Loathe:
- that I didn't take a day or two off right after the wedding to just relax. It would've definitely been nice.
- the resurgence of morning sickness I've been feeling.
Love:
- being married!
- my husband.
- that my life in general couldn't be going any better.
So, this whole wedding planning thing, even though we're doing something small, is slightly starting to stress me out. No, it is stressing me out. Mostly, cause the Argentinian is now suggesting all these things that just wasn't what we had talked about, and is more expensive, and isn't even what I was wanting. Ugh. Ok, I just needed to vent that that he is getting on my nerves a little (which is easier to do now that I'm pregnant).
I shouldn't complain, cause this week went by relatively fast. Though each individual day seemed to just drag on. But I am very much looking forward to the weekend. I've been feeling like I have a bit more energy lately, so I hope to finish up unpacking some of the things that are still sitting around in boxes. I know, I know. You would've thought that all would've been taken care of by now. But it hasn't been, so hopefully this weekend will provide some time for that. Other than that, I think it'll be a pretty uneventful weekend. Which I'm kind of ok with. We have some party thing to go to one afternoon for someone's graduation. I don't think I've even ever met this girl. But I figured we might as well go and have a good time.
Or back to work at least. Man...let me tell you, after taking a week and a half vacation, work blows. Even more than normal. The days have just been dragging by. I think the only way I'm getting through this trying time is that I'm really looking forward to moving this weekend. Even if I'm (as expected) not done packing yet.
I've been trying to catch up on everyone's posts. But there are so many! It's not so bad to catch up on a day or two, but miss a week of posts, and it's like things are completely different with people.
So the trip was amazing. I had such a fun time. My only complaint is that I wish the Argentinian was there. And that the drinks were free. Cause those sure add up (hello almost $400 bill). We went to Grand Cayman, Honduras, Belize, and Mexico. Sacramento Guy was on the trip, and for the most part things were fine, except for the fight we got on one night. And that he occassionally got on my nerves. But overall things were ok between us. I got a tan, just like I hoped. So that makes me happy. I was worried since I (and everyone else who went in our group practically) got pretty burned on our first day at sea that I'd have to stay bathed in sunblock to prevent further discomfort. But luckily a day or two later I was fine and ready to soak up some more sun. The ship had such amazing food. I gained like 5 pounds, at least. But it was worth it. So delicious. I wish I had bought the cookbook they had of the meals they served. I might try to find out from my friend if there is a way to order one off of the ship.
As much fun as I had on the trip, I was definitely ready to get home at the end. I couldn't want to see the Argentinian. Aside from the break up, we've never been apart for that long. So we were both so happy to see each other again. I couldn't wait to get my arms around him.
This weekend has been pretty relaxing, overall. I've spent most of it lounging around with The Argentinian. Last night we just watched Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and Spirited Away, which I fell asleep during. But we own that second one, so no big deal.
So I haven't been around much lately. A friend died, and that sort of put me in a funk for a while. Then I've just been busy with stuff, and, well, the blog got neglected.
So, we are officially back together. Not engaged, but dating. I'm really happy. We're really getting along so well. It's like everything has gotten so much better than how it was at the end there before.
Ok, so, regarding the Ex, who isn't so much an ex anymore at the moment... I have him listed under like, three different tags. Boyfriend, Fiance, Ex-fiance. Too many, and, there is no one overall tag for him. Plus, what would I tag stuff now in this lovely in between any real label phase? SO, I am creating a new tag. It will be "The Argentinian", and from now on, that is what I will refer to him as. That way no matter what status we may have, he is covered.
