Are We There Yet?

This priceless road trip question popped into my head this afternoon as I was thinking about my upcoming college reunion. This weekend I will celebrate 10 years since graduating. I'm excited to see friends that I haven't seen in years and reconnect with old roommates and classmates.

Who am I kidding? Everyone thinks I'm taking Friday off to see the Royal wedding. While I do plan to watch, I really am more excited about seeing old friends. The more often we reunion, they are truly becoming OLD friends. I however, haven't aged a bit. I've just grown.

Stay tuned as the adventures of Snarky and Sassy unfold in what is sure to be an entertaining weekend, some of which will undoubtedly be at my expense. Some will be at their expense too, so it all works out in the end. I can't wait to see what happens!

Questions are Concerns

Grammar is very important. It is a reflection of who you are and your level of intelligence. Even on Facebook! As you all know, I am a HUGE fan of my intern. However, I am trying to be patient and calm and teach her. After all, there are thousands of people who helped me along the way, and while I feel that somehow they all used the tough love approach in teaching, I am trying to be a more kind and caring teacher.

This week, almost every email I have seen that the intern has sent, reads "Please contact me with any questions are concerns." At first, I thought it was simply a typo. As I write this, I'm trying to figure out a way to bring it to her attention without making her feel too horrible.

Other grammar issues that are driving me crazy this week:
1. To, Too and Two are different words and mean different things.
2. Today is one word, not To Day
3. There is no R is Wash

I (hair) Do

Working in this industry, I am extremely opinionated about most things relating to the wedding. However, there are some aspects in which I am completely clueless. Such as how I would like my hair. As with most anything in my life that I don't know what to do about - I went to the internet; specifically the knot, to see what words of wisdom they could impart. Then I had to send this to Snarky and Sassy to see what they thought. You should know that Sassy has really dark brown hair - but for this most sacred occasion in my life, she has graciously offered to go blonde and to match her dress will die the braid dark purple. Only because Snarky offered to pay her to do it. Yea, that's the love and support you get when your wedding theme is Sarcasm and Sophistication....still looking for the sophistication.
