Welcome to the Ocho's blog...

Well, it appears that HP08 is the only one posting anymore. Since that's the case, the Ocho will use this opportunity to air her dirty laundry and give an Ocho's life update. So, here you all go...

After much drama and work, the wedding invitations have been mailed!!! Whoo Hoo! HP08 won’t bore you all with the details, but the wild invitation ride involved $300 in postage and a massive/crazy person crying breakdown in the middle of a DC post office. Either way, they’re on their way now. My parents got theirs in two days, but a bunch of VA/DC people haven't gotten theirs yet even though they went out on Monday. Go figure. If they get lost in the mail, the Ocho is quitting her wedding.
In other wedding news, HP08 had her first dress fitting a couple of weeks ago and it went pretty well. It fit like a glove, though somehow she still managed to spend $150 on alternations. Ugh. Oh well. That’s ok, though, because HP08 will be using Sister Ocho's veil and she bought her hair decorations on ebay (thanks for the suggestion HP04), so that is some money saved. :) On November 5th, HP03 will be heading back to the seamstress with HP08 so that they can “learn how to bustle.” We’ll see how that goes… Ok, ENOUGH WEDDING TALK!!!
HP08 has one piece of sad new. She had mentioned to a few people that she was looking at possibly taking a new job that would have been PERFECT for her. Unfortunately, even though the person that recommended her assumed it was a done deal, it didn't pan out. The Ocho was pretty upset when she found out (cried her eyes out for the second time in less than a week) and she's still pretty bummed, but these things happen and there are worse places to be than where she is now.

So, the Ocho has been a little distracted for the last couple of weeks and has been deliquent in her exercising duties. HP08 is trying to get her act together and pull herself out of wedding planning hell. She’ll be home for her first weekend in a month this week, so she's going to try to get her head on straight.
That's the update for Ocho's world. She hopes everyone is doing well!

-Ocho Out.
