Good Idea: Letting the 'rents be involved in the wedding planning because they offered to pay for part and you honestly DO want their opinion.
Bad Idea: Letting the 'rents be involved in the wedding planning in this century. Seriously, my parents do not trust ANYTHING that I've found "online" (because, you know, the 'net is a scary, scary bad place). I found the caterer online. Therefore, they must be kinda shady. Same with the photog, the DJ, etc.
My dad tells me: "You should really call the Better Business Bureau and check on them."
My response: "Yup, I already checked BBB online. You know...with the computer...cuz you can do almost anything on these fancy machines nowadays."
Dad reiterates: "You should just call to make sure..."
*sigh*
It's okay parents. The internet is a big, confusing, scary place when you have AOL dial-up and a laptop from 1991.
Good Idea: Running to maintain health and sanity.
Bad Idea: Deciding to run yesterday in 102 degree (F) weather. With the fan in the basement it was infinitely better, but still. I had to stop every 5 minutes to WRING out my shorts. Gross. I drank so much water (64 oz in the hour) that I felt like my organs were floating in my stomach. I've decided that I either have the willpower of a saint (and must now figure out whether to use my powers for good...or for evil) or that I'm incredibly, incredibly insane. Why not be both?
Good Idea: Updating the Journal
Bad Idea: Doing so at the expense of work...again. Shit. Script. Crap.
Ah, that's my cute to vamos.
No LJ, it's really vamos not vamoose. *sigh* They don't like Spanish much

Oh, yes. Sounds like some people I know.
