Bride in Training: November 2008

http://bride-in-training.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Choosing to love and be loved, every single day. Tuesday, November 25, 2008. Thinking more clearly now. A few months ago, my father bought me a book that I've refused to read. It's called The Female Brain. From anyone because I'm afraid that hearing that will lead me by the nose into a sort of infantile trust in a flawed system (particularly one that has been established by the patriarchal hegemony). WellDr. Brizendine has a suggestion. That's fine. What matters is that I perceived it as a stressor, ...

Bride in Training: August 2008

http://bride-in-training.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html

Choosing to love and be loved, every single day. Friday, August 29, 2008. Well, Jack and Robert have managed to inform literally almost all of my friends and associates about this weekend's plans.and yet not a single person has blown the surprise! Some people have sheepishly admitted to coming close to spilling the beans, but I've been effectively kept in the dark. This is quite an accomplishment, considering Jack's been working on these plans for months and months. Is it 4:00 yet? I know we'll have a go...

Bride in Training: January 2009

http://bride-in-training.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html

Choosing to love and be loved, every single day. Friday, January 30, 2009. To read, or not to read. Lame joke, I know. Forgive me. I'm sleep deprived and trying not to acknowledge the precipice upon which I stand. She did give me a more narrow focus for when I study for the exams over the next couple of weeks, which is a relief. Thursday, January 29, 2009. I got an e-mail from our Graduate Studies Coordinator with the official exam schedule:. Wednesday, February 18: 7:45-10:45 am, Shakespeare. Well, most...

Bride in Training: 17 days away and just holding on for dear life

http://bride-in-training.blogspot.com/2009/05/17-days-away-and-just-holding-on-for.html

Choosing to love and be loved, every single day. Wednesday, May 6, 2009. 17 days away and just holding on for dear life. I haven't updated in a while, mostly because the rest of the semester since achieving ABD spiraled largely out of control. Without recapping everything, I'll just focus on where we stand 17 days before the wedding. It seems to me that there is a complete disconnect between the reality and people's fantasies for this wedding. An error on your part does not equal an emergency on my part.

Bride in Training: September 2008

http://bride-in-training.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html

Choosing to love and be loved, every single day. Saturday, September 27, 2008. No sleep for the weary. It's been a few days since I've posted, so I suppose I should begin with a quick recap. I spent the morning on the phone with the insurance company, the student medical clinic, and my ophthalmologist's office. The insurance company won't cover my visit because I failed to get a referral from the student medical clinic first. Why didn't I get a referral? Ugh Thursday was ever more of the same. Althou...

Bride in Training: 12 days to go and waiting with bated breath

http://bride-in-training.blogspot.com/2009/05/12-days-to-go-and-waiting-with-bated.html

Choosing to love and be loved, every single day. Monday, May 11, 2009. 12 days to go and waiting with bated breath. In twelve days, I marry the man I love. In twelve days, I learn what my mom kept promising I'd learn. In twelve days, I drop a last name to gain another. In twelve days, I knit my soul to Robert's to be witnessed by my friends and family. In twelve days, my real life begins. In twelve days, I wear that gorgeous dress for its intended purpose. In twelve days, I celebrate a family doubled.

Bride in Training: March 2009

http://bride-in-training.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

Choosing to love and be loved, every single day. Monday, March 9, 2009. I am Sir Gawain! I defeated my Green Knight on Thursday, and I am now ABD! Two reasons: 1. I'm teaching SGGK. The less fatal blow I'm referring to is my low pass on one of my writtens. But even that's melted away as a distant memory. My oral exam was scary at first, but I eventually eased my way into it and was able to find my footing. I got no sleep the night before (but who does? I have been sleeping so well lately, which is good t...
