Wedding Dresses and Wedding Planners

Live was going so well, but now I'm considering ritual suicide. ((Not really, but I might just jump in front of a Dracon Beam or something.)) My day was going great till yesterday. I got a call from some lawyer who said that my mom had lost her case, ((what case? She was drunk!)) and they had reviewed the will. Apparently, the house and all its contents are all mine, since I am of legal age now.

Me: Goody.

Mr. Lawyer: You will need to come to California to sign the papers in 90 days or less, or you loose the house.

Me: Ok, I'll be there.

So, naturally, I went to Aunt Martha and told her about it. And, since the rest of the women of the world are conspiring against me, it turned out that Jess was planning on getting married there. She then decided to pop the big question on me.

"Tia, dear, would you mind being one of my bride's maids?"

"Sure," answered the unsuspecting victim. Jess looked positively thrilled that I was agreeing to do it. So, naturally, we have recently landed in CA after a long plane flight and are currently residing in a hotel, where Jess is attempting to convince me to go shopping with her. I have decided that there are worse things.

Oh, she is dead. I mean it, she is DEAD! Ok, I'm over reacting. It's simply a pink dress. No big problem. Plus, it's pretty, in a way…oh, who am I kidding? It is ugly as sin! Then again, I've seen worse bride's maids' dresses. Not many, but enough. Anyway, back to the dress. It puffs out at the bottom, with a large bow on the back. The ends trail down to the ground. The top has a similar bow, with the ugliest broach I have ever seen. Still think I'm over reacting? You haven't seen it. Also, it is the oddest shade of baby pink I have ever seen.

Moving on. Shopping went well, I guess, I mean besides the dress from hell. To make up for it, Jess bought me a cinnamon bun and we went to see a movie. It was a bit of a chick flick, "Bewitched", I think it was. It was cute, but not something I would generally go see. After the movie, we went to get smoothies and she talked non-stop about Dan. She is really in love with him, and I'm very happy for her. I found myself deeply missing Alex, and to a certain extent, Tom. I guess love works in weird ways, if you call what Tom and I had love. Anyway, tomorrow, I get to meet Mr. Lawyer. He has a name, I just can't remember it off the top of my head…Eh, at least I get a house out of it all. I should call Kat. I really should. But, I'm tired...

Note to self: when a glowing blue guy asks you to do something, DON'T!

I have had the oddest adventure today. I went to sleep and was dreaming happily, but I had to use the bathroom, and my pleasant sleep was interrupted. I am not bitter…So, still in a stupor, I decided to watch the TV. The only thing on was commercials. My eyes were drooping and I thought I fell asleep again. In truth, I was wide awake, well, sort of. My eyes fluttered as I rubbed them, finding myself in the mall again. The only weird thing? The whole mall was frozen in time and there was this freaky blue man standing nearby. I turned to my left and saw an Andalite and a bird. The Andalite was speaking, (--will become angry if we are not returned unharmed.)

PEACE, AX. The man answered. ALL QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED. When he said this, he seemed to be looking directly at me. THE LAST PIECE HAS COME. He lifted a hand, pointing a finger at me. The Andalite and the bird turned.

A/N: WEE! Finally, I have figured out the best place to put it! Sorry, I've been working on this one for a while now…Anyway, R/R! Please?
