Last night after work Alicia and I headed out to Men's Wearhouse, where a couple of week's ago we had gone in and gotten a "Tuxedo Consultation" with the "Tuxedo Specialist." Tuesday evening is our "pre-wedding" photo shoot and Alicia will be in her wedding dress. (Not going to lie, I'm excited!) Because Alicia is going to be spiffied up to her uptmost spiffiness I am going to be as well. I'm going to be in a tuxedo. That's right loyal readers, I... The Rogue Signal am going to be classing it up in a penguin suit. We picked it up yesterday, and it isn't perfect. My shoulders are a bit broad for the jacket, but the alterations would have put it past the date we need it, so we're going to just roll with it. Wearing this tux has definitely affirmed for me that I need to lose some weight. Alicia has stated that I'm quite handsome in my tuxedo (we did a trial run of it today, so she could see everything all put together, and so she could say "darling, that is definitely not how that works." I'm not super comfortable in it, but Alicia likes it so I'll go with it.
Following our trial run with the tuxedo Alicia and I sat down to bust out our invitations. We spent time organizing lists, making piles, adding stamps, printing labels, placing labels on envelopes. We spent quite a chunk of time doing this and we've only dented the list of invites that we need to send out. All in all it's been fun though. It's meant a lot of time side by side with my girl, and that makes me happier than anything in the world.
We've also been having discussions regarding wedding cakes. I'm not sure we're any closer to the decision. To put it mildly... neither of us really like cake all that much. The exception for me is german chocolate cake, but that's not a thing Alicia really likes. So we're continuing our discussions.
We're taking a brief break from invitation work, so I decided to blog about our current adventures. We're both excited for the upcoming week. It entails photo shoots, and my mom and brother will be here! Alicia gets to meet some of her future family-in-law for the first time in person. She says she's nervous, but I am hoping she is excited as well.
The time has come to get back to work. As always, dear readers, this has been a blogcast of The Rogue Signal. Until next time, goodnight, and good luck.
