It's true.



Although tiki is a well-known world authority on cute-i-tude, we somehow skipped over the essential childhood instruction on the most basic building blocks of girliness. We somehow missed out on the essentials, like "Potpourri: WTF?" and "Grooming 101: How to Not Glue Your Legs Together Whilst Waxing." And especially, we somehow omitted "Planning Your Dream Wedding Starting at Age 3."





Seriously, where does everybody else learn to demand an engagement rock of sufficient size to throw a fiance into marginal bankruptcy? To dream of drawing up seating charts which will pit the most noisome inlaws across the gravy boats? To learn the distinction between calla lilies and freesias? To select the most ridiculously unflattering shade of pastel in which to clad unlucky bridesmades?



We don't know. But damn, this dress is pretty spiff!



NOTE: Subtle colors on face. Subtle!! Yes, we're looking at you. WE MEAN YOU! Put down the magic marker now and step away from your dollieh.



Ooo, we haven't put up our Timulus pix yet. Soon, my pets....

P.S. Yes, tikistitch is most happily married. (To Mr. Tikistitch, conveniently enough.) We eloped. And then blew the wedding fund on a honeymoon in Spain that was 13 shades of awesome. Such is the life of a Girlie School Droupout.

I love the dress, and I love interesting, creative, low-cost weddings, but I hate the wedding industry! We also eloped and spent the money on [livejournal.com profile] alwayshoneymoon. ;)

*highfive*

Seriously, I think I was born lacking a "wedding bone" or something. I've been to other people's weddings, and enjoyed them ok, but I've never been able, like my other friends, to come home and describe in teeny tiny detail what the bridesmaids were wearing.

She looks like Natalie Wood. Y'know, with a really big head. And not dead.

Weddings give me the horrors. I've had nightmares about weddings.

Nightmares about my wedding? Or your wedding?

Weddings are a nightmare. Trust me.

I'm also somewhat of a girlie school drop-out... Everything I know about girls (make-up, waxing, walking with stilettos, doing my hair, etc.) I learnt from my drag-queen friends. True story, I swear. And I've never dreamt of wedding and other such crap. It simply bored me... I hated white dresses, bridesmaids, flower arrangements, pastel colours...

Can I join the club too? I never understood why other girls were sighing over dolls in wedding dresses as kids, and I don't get people who get all gooey about weddings now. From the ones I've witnessed, they resemble nothing so much as the Invasion of Normandy in the amount of preplanning and expense, not to mention the aftermath.

You know what'd be a really cool wedding? A pirate vs. ninja theme! All the bride's people could be pirates and all the groom's could be ninjas! Then there could be a choreographed fight scene in the middle of everything!

. . . Why yes, I flunked out of Girl School, too. Why do you ask?
