Why is it that I am a grown woman, about to be married with a full time job and I am completely and utterly mortified to buy tampons?
I just can't do it. Last night I went into the shop, walked around a little bit, felt really awkward and had to stop myself from running out.
Will this ever go away?

The Year Of The Wedding
a.k.a My Recurring Dream
I woke up with a start this morning, heart pounding and my nerves completely on edge. I had had The Dream again. The dream starts at 11:45am on my wedding day, the ceremony to start at 12pm. I have my dress on, I think that all is well but then I look in the mirror and realise that I HAVE NO MAKE UP ON and MY HAIR ISN'T DONE! I haven't even washed my hair that day! So I have 15 minutes to do everything I possibly can to make myself look vaguely presentable and ready for what should be the biggest day of my life. The dream then drags on for what feels like 3 hours that are all in those 15 minutes trying to figure out what I am going to do.
I have had this dream approximately 5 times. Each time the scenario is slightly different, but it's always 11:45, and it's always the same issue.
Obviously, I'm worried that I'm not ready enough. There's 6 months to go (which I know is plenty of time) but at the moment I'm quite panicked about the amount there is to plan. I'm usually the kind of person that procrastinates and then finishes everything off at the last minute, but this is the one time in my life I can't do that. I think I'm just worried that I will do that, and I'll only have myself to blame for a shambles of a wedding.
I also know that even if we were stood in a church in our PJs with our vows tainted with coffee breath, it would mean just as much and it would be just as powerful.
But I have such high hopes! And there's so much to be done!
On a brighters side, I thought I'd post our Save The Date card that we sent out in November.
One of our friends designed it for us. I love it. When he first sent it to us, we were staring at it for ages because it's just so different and kind of weird. I always wanted to be in an oldies movie so I guess this works well for me!
Before we had decided to use this one, he created another one for us:
Well now I'm off to go try and do some planning to stave off the recurring dream.
But before I do, I have a question for you: What song is quintessentially wedding reception to you? What song would you request to be played so you can dance lovingly with someone? What song would either bring you to tears (in a good way) or make you boogie on down?
