Facebook Fun
Someone posted this question on Facebook. I laughed because this is my type of question.
Would you let your back fat hang out of your wedding dress?
I forgot who posted it, now I can’t go back and look at the responses. What say you?
Is This a Bad Idea?
Q: Is it a bad idea to have my wedding on one day and the reception on the other? It’s about the locations, I can’t get both on the same day so I’d invite everyone to my wedding on Friday and my reception on Saturday or Sunday. What do you think?
A: I think that you are setting yourself up for a lot of people to come to your reception and not your wedding. Unless this is a distance wedding where everyone is at a certain location and planned on spending the whole weekend devoted to your wedding; I think it’s a bad idea and that you are asking for a bit much.
Engaged Volunteers Needed For Study
I am passing along this email that may be of interest.
Engaged volunteers needed!
I am looking for volunteers for a study of attitudes towards marriage and parenthood among engaged couples. The study consists of a 25-30 minute online survey. To qualify for the study, you must be 20-35 years old, live in the U.S., and plan to marry or have a commitment ceremony within the next 365 days. You and your romantic partner must not have children, and this must be the first marriage for both of you.
You can:
-Help a doctoral candidate;
-Increase the pool of scientific knowledge;
-Support research on marriage and families; and
-Spend some time thinking about your relationship!
I am working with Dr. Charlotte J. Patterson, a Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia. This study has been approved by the University of Virginia Institutional Review Board #2009025800.
If you and/or your romantic partner are interested in participating or want further information, please email me at survey.couples@gmail.com. I will send you a link that you can use to access the study.
Thanks!

When Creativity Goes Too Far

I’m all for being unique but you have to draw the line somewhere.
Personally, dismemberment is not really that appetizing.
