What? There are non-wedding related things in the world?

Before I became a full-time bride, I once enjoyed witty blogs to break up my day. That being said, I still have a few that I follow through my igoogle (have you tried it? sooo addictive!) They are as follows:

3FatChicks - This is a great weight loss website full of other blogs from men and women fighting the bulge. There once was a blog entitled "Those pants don't make you look fat, your fat makes you look fat" - which is albeit, a long title for a blog, but still hilarious (and oh so true).
Anyways, take a look and perhaps start your own witty entries on how you fight the bulge.

Penelope Trunk's Brazen Careerist - one word, fabulous. She writes on how to balance work and personal lives, how to be a kick-ass woman and still be fabulous in your own right, etc. I find it to be a lovely break from my wedding planning, because it reminds me that I do have a career to chase concurrently with planning my nuptials.

Personal Branding Blog
- With all the constant chatter of wedding monograms, etc (I love a good monogram - don't get me wrong) - how about some own PERSONAL branding? Like - you - the career minded individual who has dreams and hopes for their future? Here they discuss great topics and source interviews with wonderfully innovative people - check it out if you need a good read.

Wiki How
- How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee for updating me on how to ride a bull without making an ass of myself, or how to knit a crochet square, how to make oatmeal in the hotel coffee maker in my room, or how to get rid of stretch marks (not that I have any presently). : ) Always good for an enlightening tidbit.

Women's Health Magazine - As a subscriber to a number of female health and fitness-minded magazines, I somehow always come back to Women's Health. Perhaps it is their no-holds-barred approach to fitness and advice, or how they always manage to be truthful (let's face it - losing weight and looking good is not as easy as 30 minuts of Pilates and a Mediterranean diet). Whatever their source of infinite wisdom and inspiration, it often inspires me the way Jillian from Biggest Loser does when she is in a moment of fitness-rage. : ) I say this all, of course, as I eat a chocolate Santa and stare at my uber-fitted mermaid wedding gown. *grin*
