let's start by saying I never win anything. door prizes, bingo games, bets, scratch-off lotto tickets . . . nothing. you know those carnival games where you pick up the floating duck & win a prize if the bottom is red or whatever? yeah, no. my duck is not a winner.
but, I DID win a little "contest" the Repeat Bride was having the other day for some engagement books. (she was mostly giving them away, but hush. I will claim my small victories where I can) I "won" a copy of Emotionally Engaged: A Bride's Guide to Surviving the "Happiest" Time of Her Life (by Allison Moir-Smith).
I'm kind of excited.
also, check out her blog. it's great. she's very honest about the ups & downs of preparing not just for a wedding but for a life together. actually, she's really very honest about everything. pretty great.
(ps: does it make me a nerd to be really excited about winning a book? probably. do I care? nope.)

Cool! Congrats! I won a book, also - about planning your own wedding ceremony. I was super psyched, especially because the timing was perfect for planning ours... Geeks, unite! :)
ReplyDeleteThe book sounds awesome, btw... all the stress does make me wonder if this is the 'happiest' time.
