I've been going on normallly, being swept up in all the mundane activities of everyday life, giving very little thought to the whole wedding planning process. Of course, there are times when something pops into my head and I feel my pulse quicken just thinking about wedding details. It probably doesn't help that almost-strangers come up to me and take my hand to stare at my ring and proceed to bombard me with wedding-related questions. I get flustered and mumble something to the effect that I haven't really made any decisions just yet and thanks for bringing it to my attention and setting off another series of panic-ridden minutes.
I can't help it. It doesn't seem very real to me and because it doesn't, I can only immerse myself in plans for so long until I simply get...bored. Shock. Horror. Dismay. Who would've thought a bride would be bored. Ok, maybe bored isn't exactly the right descriptive word to use. But without anything really concrete to do for the wedding (favors to make, table decor to put together, programs to type out, all those fun DIY projects), my fingers get ansty and my attention wanders off to more immediate concerns like when's a good time to visit MOH?, did I pay that bill yet?, or what would it be like to have a parasitic twin and would I get rid of it or keep it like the Octopus Man? (Because, you know, my mind is filled with lots of weird trivia.) It doesn't seem real without all of that. And because of this, I find myself changing my mind from month to month about decor details, colors, themes, etc. Currently, my mind is battling the idea of switching the color scheme to grey and yellow because it fun and incorporates two colors I am obsessed with.
Help!
Will someone else plan the wedding for me and all I have to do is show up, smile and look pretty?

Gray and yellow? Hmmm. I'm not seeing it. . . Hang in there--you can do this! Just try to keep it interesting. And eat some chocolate. If all else fails, Vegas, baby! ;) *ducks the rubber chicken*
I love those colors so it would be summery and fun!
Chocolate: I haven't been attacked by Dementors, lady.
And don't think we haven't considered Vegas; it was one of the first ideas we had. But then you'd be sad because you wouldn't get to see what sorts of sadist things I make you do for the wedding. How could you resist?
Maybe I'm imagining the wrong shades. :) I've only just "discovered" yellow, anyway. :>
Heh heh, cake is really all I need. . .
You and Anthony could take of all of that. I'm not a cake gal anyways.
Oops! I think I confused you with a different Heather entirely; my comments don't make sense otherwise.
Whoops--sorry! Not that I don't get lots of offers involving cake. . . but I thought you may have confused me with another Heather.
I saw a great combo of yellow and gray the other day in a collage photo, so I now see how it works. In looking at those "idea boards," the opportunities for different color combinations are so amazing--whatever you pick I'm sure will be gorgeous.
