Watch me carefully for signs of 'Zilla-dom

I was doing great. Yes, I bought bridal magazines, went through them a couple of times, ripped out photos I liked of flowers, dresses, etc., and kept them together in a notebook with some other plans, but at least I hadn't gone HOG WILD. At least I didn't start BUYING things for my wedding 339 days away. At least I don't have color swatches.

Oh dear.

It's not my fault! Kate's Paperie in Soho was having a moving sale! All their prety, pretty paper at "final sale" prices. And there was these big sheets of velvety purple paper on sale! From $12 a sheet to 5 for $9! In my color! How could I resist?

Sigh.

They're all neatly rolled up in the "wedding corner" of my apartment, with my registry stuff, and Martha Stewart books, and magazines. And my notebook, of course. Repository of all things wedding and girlified.

I also bought a little something else, but that's a secret. Yes, I CAN keep those.
