I think I have cold feet, but I'm not really sure. I don't really know what it means to have cold feet. I mean, I'm panicking over what I know are tiny little things that I shouldn't worry about. But I keep worrying about them, and wondering how we'll be able to compromise a solution. I'm also dreaming of the honeymoon. I don't know where we'll go on our honeymoon, but I do know that I want it to be awesome. I think that's partly why I'd prefer a smaller, more intimate wedding. We could spend less money on the actual wedding ceremony, and more on the honeymoon.

It's 3:31 am, and I cannot sleep. I've been up for a few hours now though, and I think I'm gonna at least try and rest some. It's not like I have to be up early for anything, so I can sleep later if I need to I guess. I missed a call from Edward last night, I had drifted off to sleep by the time he called. He left a message saying he loved me, to have a good night and sweet dreams and all that. I've been saving his voicemails lately because I know I'm going to miss the sound of his voice while he's away, and this way I'll still be able to hear it. He also said he's tell me about what happened when he calls again. Something happened? I wanna know if its good or bad. I've tried decoding his tone in the message to sense whether it's good or bad, but I can't. It could be either way. I hope it's good. I know he was feeling kinda depressed yesterday, and good news would've cheered him up. But I don't know what happened yet. I hope it was a good thing, I really do. Maybe he doesn't have to stay in Iraq as long as he thought he would! There's an idea. I don't know. I'm going to bed; I'll post more later.

Well, apparently nothing special happened. It was just a meeting he went to where they reinstilled information they already knew. I lost four hours of sleep for that?!
Oh well. Can't do anything about it now. I did happen to catch Project Runway's latest episode on repeat though at 1:00 am. I missed the first 20 mins or so, but I got to see the designs each of the contestants made, so I was happy. I was a little confused though, Vincent and Angela were back on the show; I thought they'd been eliminated? Guess thats why you shouldn't miss the first twenty minutes..It's scheduled to come on again at 1 pm, so I'll watch it then and see what I missed.
Ed wants me to have a job before he leaves. Um, I may have one a little after he leaves, but in the next week, all I can do is apply at a few different places. I still haven't asked my parents about visiting him next weekend. I really want to, moreso than I did when he first brought it up. I should have a chance sometime tomorrow, so I'll try then. Pray that I can go! I know he's really depressed, and not very happy over there right now, and I'd love to change that even if it is only for the weekend.
I finally heard from Esther. She's going to Chile! It sounds like she's still really happy, and excited about going to another country. Pray for her, she's also going to be without her translator. She's learned a ton of Spanish now she's been in Argentina for a few months, but still. I'm really excited for her too. I don't think I have anything else I want to write about right now, so this post ends here.

I talked to my mom this morning. I might actually get to go to Texas!!! *sings* I'm going to TX, I'm going to TX, I'm going to TX!*end*
I still need the details though, like the plane ticket! How much it costs if I have to help pay for the ticket, a ride to and from the airport, etc. But still. I'll get to see my fiance in TX next weekend! Yay!
I really couldn't be much happier. We went to Publix this morning while we were running around, and I stopped in the bakery departement to look at wedding cakes, just for fun. (Well, fun and for some ideas..) I found two that I just love!

1st One: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c311/lwelizabeth/wed_honeyhubbybear_lg.jpg

2nd One: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c311/lwelizabeth/wed_romance_lg.jpg

I think the first one would be really special though, since throughout our relationship we've almost always given the other a teddy bear for different occasions. The other one is really pretty though, and would serve more guests. We plan on a small wedding though, so that might not be a real big problem.

Anyone have an account on WhuddleWorld.com? I do (Lwelizabeth); it's a really addictive website even if it is kinda small and just starting. Anyways, check it out. You have like your own little character that you take shopping to buy clothes and food for, and...well, check it out, I dunno how to explain it. It's really fun though, trust me!

That's all I've got to say for now. *sings*Going to TX, Going to TX, Going to TX....

So, I finally got to talk to Ed about next weekend. The only problem in our way right now, according to him, is money. (I don't know if my mom has told my dad yet...I don't want to; he scares me when I want to ask if I can do things like this.) Assuming my dad says ok, we've just got to figure out how to pay for a plane ticket so I can actually get over there. Neither of us has much money (I've barely got $300), and if we're gonna get a ticket, the sooner the better since prices will go up tomorrow and the day after. I looked a little bit at tickets yesterday, they were around $300-$400...now there closer to $500. Ugh. I'm gonna have to talk to my mom about it. And my dad...

So I finally found a ticket for a little under $400; and now I get to go to Texas this coming weekend! I can't wait. I'm hoping to have all my schoolwork for the week finished by Weds. or Thurs. so I'm not panicking about having that done on time. I also want to pick up some bridal magazines to read on the plane, and then maybe go through them together and pick out somethings both of us would like at our wedding.
I still don't have a job, but I'm going to look tomorrow and see if there are any openings at any of the elementary schools for a part time position. That'd be cool since it'd give me some connections in the industry I plan to work in full time. I'll keep you updated on that. I may just end up working as a tour guide at Green Meadows Farm. Eh.

Does anyone know if airports allow you to take a cd player onboard to listen to music? Or an Ipod? (One or the other would be good!) I was looking at some of the things they have listed here, and under electronics, it mentions neither of the two but it says you can still carry a laptop and/or a PDA and stuff. It'd be great to know ahead of time!
