How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: Over a weekend, we drove up to Connecticut and got married that Monday; we drove back the same day. We did it in the town of Darien, CT. Our celebratory meal afterward was at Friendly's! Read how I did it…
It made me 
How I did it: Thank goodness I went on their "pay what you can" day because this was a complete waste of time. The guy didn't tell me anything I didn't already know, and although he had some innovative ways of cracking my back, it wasn't anything I couldn't have done at home with a friend's help. Read how I did it…
It made me
shocked 
How I did it: I bought a package of "Splat" hair dye in their raspberry color. I wasn't going to bleach my hair, so I knew it wouldn't be quite the same as on the package. It's a home kit, just like any other, except with lots more staining! Of skin, of clothes, of floors, of grout, of shower curtains...need I go on? Read how I did it…
