Getting married is not fun when my mother is involved.

Last night she was trying to talk me into buying stupid things and inviting people I haven't spoken to it at least 10 years. Her reasoning was that the wedding is "The happiest day of my entire life."

I sorta blew up at her on that one. Cause if the wedding is the happiest day of my life, doesn't that imply it's all downhill from there? She's essentially saying that I will have a terrible marriage and be miserable for the rest of my life. No thank you. It's just a stupid party. The only thing changing that day is my tax status.

Today she is fighting me over flowers. I don't want flowers. They're just decaying plant matter. You know where I've seen flowers my whole life? Hospitals, funerals, and cemeteries. Why would I invite that sort of gloom to a supposedly happy party? My metal flowers are a thousand times more awesome because they will never wilt or die.

If she wants a traditional wedding, she better start planning her own. Cause she's not going to find it with me. Ben and I are too cool for that sort of nonsense.

Thanks.

We sorta anticipated this kind of stuff from the beginning which is why we are paying for the thing ourselves. But that doesn't make her demands any less annoying.

She needs to find a hobby. Maybe I can convince her to take up scrapbooking...

You know... although it was stressful having to plan everything about the wedding ourselves I'm still kind of glad my parents (and distant relatives who I barely know but would be expected to invite) were in another country and couldn't poke their noses in. Good luck dealing with your... mother-of-the-bridezilla?
