… because “no adults were invited.”
Whatever.

YAY!
For a limited time only, professoreric is back in the office with me. WHEEEEEEEE!
Seen on IM:
him: i hate when you are looking up links for filipino bakeries and porn starts popping up all over the place…
him: i dont even like that kind of porn, i much perfer the classics, like “do it debbies way”
joz: I’ll pretend like you didn’t just say that
So I finally did a mirror project picture that doesn’t make me want to gouge my eyes out with pointy objects. I took this in our bathroom mirror after getting back from the Midsummer Night’s Party.
Thanks to both Mikey2, my Photoshop Cabana Boy™ and Don, The Man™ for “watermarking” my photo for me and putting up with my rants about how I no longer have a working photo editor.
For the record, the only photoshopping that was done on this picture was some cropping of the background (you did not need to see the bathroom tile) and the addition of the watermark. It is amazing how many pounds you can lose without digital assistance just by getting the right lighting and a good angle.
UPDATE BY JOZJOZJOZ: In response to a bunch of comments and questions to yoshi’s rant…
-Yoshi’s Mom found out last night that the bridal shower was happening this weekend when Yoshi mentioned it during a phone conversation. How much would it suck to be having a conversation with your Mom to have her realize that she didn’t get invited to something like this? And how much would it suck to be the one to (inadvertently) break the news to her?
-YoshiMom did not know that the shower was happening this weekend. So it was not like she wasn’t sent an invitation because she already knew about, because she didn’t.
-As far as we know, there was no bad blood between the bride and the soon to be mother-in-law… until now, anyway. I don’t believe she was PURPOSELY excluded because of bad feelings, etc. Perhaps she was purposely excluded for some other reason, but I really have no idea.
-In response to Sharky’s comment: Yoshi’s brother doesn’t need to hear to from Yoshi what to tell his fiancee what to do. Yes, YoshiMom should get an invitation to the shower, but it’s no longer a matter of her attending or not attending. It’s really a matter of YoshiMom not being invited in the first place.
-Yog, It’s not a “bride’s family shower” because if that was the case, I wouldn’t have been on the invitation list. Yoshi’s family is very non-confrontational. YoshiMom is not the kind of person to ask why she wasn’t invited to something.
-Since this just happened last night, no one has been asked for an explanation (so obviously no reason has been given) yet.
-Spike, Michael, a bridal shower is NOT a bachelorette party. Even if you are planning something naughty for the bridal shower, do you not invite your future mom-in-law because of it?! Having a strip-o-gram is worth making people (like me & Yoshi) and mad and upset?
-And I really don’t think that YoshiMom was pissed, but probably hurt and slighted. It’s me and Yoshi who are pissed.
-Yes, a lot has to happen for a wedding to happen, but what kind of oversight is not inviting someone that important? It’s not like it’s a family friend, distant cousin, or even someone in the extended family… it’s your fiance’s mother! If the invitation is indeed lost in the mail, then that would be the only conceivable reason for no one to be pissed. If this was an oversight, that’s a REALLY MAJOR oversight.
-But what possible excuse could there be for not throwing 37-cents on a card or picking up the phone and calling (so 20th century, I know)?!
