Because you're too serious.

I doubt it but anything's possible. LOL.

Yeah, he played Billy Crystal's son.

I had to remember how we got in the topic of Jake Gyllenhal. LOL.

IrishLake, will you let us know how it goes?

Nope, just mean what I say.

Her songs are ridiculously out of touch with reality and if she really believes all that junk she's got unrealistic expectations, but I have a feeling she's actually just a smart girl that knows she's found her niche. Who knows...maybe he's an immature 30?

I still don't think it'll last though.

This is so cute. Don't you agree, Munchkin03? :) Don't hate on the looooove.

D-Phil, yep, I'll let ya'll know how it goes!

I doubt she's all that mature if she was recently "in love" with that Taylor boy that plays the werewolf in "Twilight." But...this is Hollywood.

I thought they lasted for like 2 seconds.

9 years is a big gap when dealing with someone who is relatively recently "legal." It isn't a generation gap but it is interesting to find how well a 30 and 21 yo relate to one another.

It isn't a big gap for the 30+ crowd.

As a 21+ crowd member I like the maturity of the 30+ crowd. I think I felt similarly at 21, but I wasn't really looking at the time.

Yes, because I thought it was his being in love with Taylor Swift that would ruin my chances.....

:p

Ok, another wedding etiquette question...although this its more of a "what would you do" type, because I'm pretty sure I know the "real" answer.

My daughter was just asked to be the flower girl in my (male) cousin's wedding. I've never met the bride, but my mom and daughter have several times. This is actually the bride's second wedding - her first marriage only lasted a few months, however my aunt has always wanted a daughter, and is very close with the bride, so she offered to "sponsor" the wedding. All this to say that whilethe bride will be picking out the dress and all that good stuff, she's not going to be ridiculously concerned with every detail being perfect, etc. So, my question for y'all is this: the wedding is the weekend after Easter, and since we will be purchasing the dress, would it be awful to let my daughter wear the dress for Easter (obviously, we'll plan on having it dry cleaned between, if needed)? I know the technical answer is no, it should not be worn before the wedding, but it seems silly and wasteful to purchase two fancy dresses for two weekends in a row that will be outgrown in 6 months. Also, we'll be going to Easter church here in NC, and the wedding is in western Tennessee, so the only people who will see the dress both weekends are my immediate family.

Do what you gotta do. If anything, Easter will allow her to break in the shoes, and she'll be a little more comfortable in the dress the second time around. Use the money you'd have spent on another dress on her burgeoning career. :)

I wore a bridesmaid's dress for a sorority formal before the wedding (the bride had us get them ridiculously early cause they were a hard to find style). Go for it, please!

If anyone has a problem with it - say they can jolly well buy your growing girl the extra dress.
