Eeek! Two months to go!

There are only two full months left before (dun-DUN-dun-dun...) wedding day. This boggles me for several reasons, a few of which I'll list:
A) Two. Months. That's, like, a minute in wedding-prep time.
B) We have to have wedding invitations into the mail in 3 day's time. Make that two days' time, since I'm posting in the wee hours of Dec. 26. And while the invitations have been printed, they have not yet been assembled. This will happen in the next two days. Full assembly rundown, plus photos, coming forthwith.
C) There's still a lot I feel like I haven't figured out. We're having to DIY a lot, since we're paying for this whole shindig ourselves and we're trying not to go into crippling debt doing it. The budget is tight. This means no hiring of day-of wedding coordinators; no hiring of limos/vans/drivers; no any of the things that make day-of logistics a lot easier to figure out. So I need to just sit down and diagram out everything and then attach a timeline. This will make me a lot less nervous about if or how things will run smoothly on Feb. 24.
D) My nails keep ripping and my cuticles snagging. This makes me feel very tomboyish and un-bride-like. Please, fingernails and cuticles, can you please become ladylike and perfect by wedding day? You can resume being tomboyish on Feb. 25.
E) I can't think of a "E" item right now, because I am tired. See time of post.

I did pick up my dress last week, plus the shawl and the beads I want to sparkle one or the both of them up with. I haven't decided if I'm going to tart my dress up a little, or just leave it plain. I'd better decide very soon. See first sentence of post. Also I must make my headpiece or veil or whatever I'll be wearing over my hair. And I have to schedule a hair trial, so I won't have either limp locks or the rat's nest that my own styling attempts nearly always result in. Doing my own makeup is about as adventurous as I want to get with the wedding-day beauty thing. For hair, I'll need to bring in a professional. This is possible because we decided to use iTunes for our music instead of hiring a band. I am so sorry, all you live musicians out there. We just can't afford you for this event. While I realize this does not help put mac-n-cheese on your tables now, we promise to hire some of you for an anniversary sometime.

I had a dream the other morning that I was taking four weeks' vacation, to sleep. All I'd be doing on this vacation was napping, then snacking, then napping some more. Napping in various locations, outdoors and indoors, reading a little, then more napping. In my dream, after four weeks of napping life was great again, and I was raring to go for the wedding, for my career, for the rest of my life, for everything. Then I woke up and thought about the dream for a moment, and remembered I was taking all three weeks of my allotted vacation time for our wedding. One week before, and two weeks after. So I redoubled my determination to have all my planning and prep done by the week before our wedding day (Lord, help me) and made myself a promise that our honeymoon, in addition to being fun, adventuresome, loving and full, will also feature plenty of time for catnapping and regeneration.
