Dazed and.... well, just dazed really...

All I can say is that my life is really busy right now. There are so many things to post and so little time before the big day. I am getting married to the love of my life (Eric Benjamin Arnette) in 16 days, 3 hours, and 48 minutes (and counting.) I am crazy in love and as a result the rest of my life seems to be on pause. I live with a wonderful family, but I am never home to see them. My jobs are at the bottom of my priority list, and yes I will admit, sometimes I find myself bored and figuring out the different ways I will sign my NEW name (Mrs. Arnette, Mr. and Mrs. Eric Arnette, Nicole Marie Arnette...)

Two weekends ago my in-laws were in town visiting. They were our first guests in our new apartment and as a pre-wedding gift they took us shopping for some new furniture. This adventure really does deserve it's own post with pictures, so you will have to wait for the apartment transformation until I can find my USB cord.

The weekend after that my sister was here visiting and to attend the shower put on by my good friends Shuana, Coleen, and Carrie. This also deserves it's own post with pictures, but I'm not sure if Eric will allow me to post a game that we played about him in a pirate suit. Yes it is really funny, and no, it's not as bad as you think. There is very little nudity involved.

And yesterday Eric and I went to see Star Wars Episode III. It's hard not to talk about my favorite parts (out of respect for those who haven't seen it yet.) And I was disappointed that there wasn't a preview for The Chronicles of Narnia, but over all it was an enjoyable movie, that strangely reminded me of the Titanic. Only because in the Titanic you knew that in the end the boat was going to sink. In Star Wars you knew Anakin was going to the dark side, and there was nothing you could do about it. More than anything Eric and I realized that going to the movie was way out of our budget. Did you know that the cost for two adult matinee tickets, a small popcorn, and a small drink is $20.00??? Ridiculous... Ridiculous I say.

So to all of you faithfully reading this blog... I do owe you posts and pictures. USB cord where are you?

I know... you e-mailed it to me one time. Eric tried to pretend he didn't know what I was talking about when I said I had the picture. But then he saw it... and laughed. I guess he remembered after that.

How do you get the free beer? We are closer to the Bagdad, which I think is a cooler theater, but they don't have as many movie choices.

jon knows most of the people who work there, so if we get the right person to serve us . . . we get the right stuff! and he gets a lot of passes to see movies too.

yeah, the bagdad is a better looking theatre, but their pizza isn't as good (the food is more expensive too) and the movie choices are fewer. i really like how the laurelhurst usually has some random old school movie playing too, like a while ago they had the jim henson movie "the dark crystal" and a while ago they brought "rushmore" back to the screen (i know that's not old school)
anyway, breanna is interested in your ipod if you are still selling it . . . :)

Hi Ryan! Congratulations to you too friend!!! I've looked at your blog a few times and saw that you were married. Eric and I are super excited. We are going to Florida for our honemoon as well. I will e-mail you in the next couple of days.
