I'm late, I'm late for a very important date. No time to say hello, goodbye...I'm late, I'm late!

Not on your life!

I just got the date for initiation confirmed...

November 9th!

This weekend is the Founder's Day celebration. I am looking forward to it. It will be the first time I have seen most of the people since Pref. It will be great to meet some of the others I have not met yet.

After a lot of pondering, I broke down and ordered my badge. (the only reason I broke down was because I was trying to decide which style to get and budgeting my money for it!) I don't know if it will get here in time for initiation. It'a ALL GOOD!

At least on this date I won't have to worry about saying NO and bringing a condom (or three)!

So which badge did you get? Chances are it won't be here in time for initiation - less than three weeks from now - but hopefully it'll be here in time for Christmas/your birthday!

Well...I didn't quite get that one! That was WAY outta my budget!

I got this one


So I guess that is Bling, instead of Bling-Bling

AHHH!!! MY EYES!!!

Jill, I like your choice I'm so envious of those of you who can get blinged-out badges... no customizations allowed for us AEPhis... oh well...

Well I just got back from the Founder's Day tea. It was wonderful. I met a lot of dynamite women there. The Founder's Day ceremony was terrific (very touching).

The food was pretty good...better food there than at the wedding reception I went to a couple of weeks ago!

The highlight of the Founder's Day (well for me) was my Pledge/new member pinning ceremony. It was moving and I bit the hell outta my lip so I would not cry. I was pretty overwhelemed, but kept it on the DL.

I am still in the catatonic overwhelmed stage. I felt like I was so welcome there.

I got a big sister and a twin!

Sorry if I sound kinda spacey! I'm a little verklempt ovah heah!

Woo hoo!

A few weeks ago I requested off for Initiation. I just checked and found out my boss gave me the day off (I just simply told her it is something I MUST go to...I didn't say initiation, it is none of her bidness)

Which is good because I sure as hell would call in sick if they were going to make me work!
