I haven't had a chance to update for a while, and I apologize for that! For the whole 5 of you that read this blog, anyway. :)
So today was a milestone: I sent out the invitations. Yay! I finished the stuffing of the envelopes last night after a yummy dinner we made with our new crockpot (which we've used twice this week already, and holy LORD, how did we live without one for this long? Thanks to Aunt Karen, my step mom's sister-in-law, we can now live in general ease for a couple of days of the week on a regular basis...), and then popped them into one of the lovely baskets I got for my shower here in Kansas (thanks to FMIL's faboolous taste in gifts...) and took them to the post office today to have them sent out on their way.
On the way to the post office, I had an alarming realization, though. I totally forgot to number the back of the RSVP cards. I called my Twin to mope about that realization, and she asked me why that was necessary? I explained that it's done so if someone doesn't fill out their name on the RSVP card, I can match it up with a list I have of all the invitees and I can figure out who was responding even without the info written in for me.
Now, if someone sends their response without filling in their name, I'm pretty well screwed. I guess the process of elimination will have to be applied, and I'm seriously hoping that it doesn't happen with too many of the RSVP's, but I have heard of it being a problem amongst the brides on the different bridal-prep websites I had been frequenting for the past few months.
So, if you few readers could do me a favor and spread the word to the people you know who are invited, and make sure they realize that writing in their names on the RSVP card would be ever so helpful to us, I sure would appreciate it!
Something dopey like this was bound to happen sometime...it is ME after all. Sheesh!

well, that is a completely smart way to handle response cards. i've never seen a number on the back of a response card though. you newfangled brides crack me up.
btw, i am so sad that i am now dateless to your wedding. i talked to lushy last night and she can't go. wah. relegated to the single table yet again. sigh.
Well, we have some very cool and very cute single guys coming to the wedding, so you won't be alone for long, sista! In fact, there will be a good amount of single-party guests that I didn't think would be the case. It's gonna work out great.
Man I'll miss Lushy, though! That sucks that she can't come. I hope she's doing ok...
