Only 2 days left

Well, there’s only 2 days until the wedding and still so much to do!  Trav is working on our music and the slideshow that will be played before the ceremony.  I’m getting ready to do some laundry, and pack for the honeymoon!  Tonight, I get my flowers and tomorrow will be full of running around!  To the wedding party:  Don’t forget that rehearsal is at 6, so try and get there a few minutes before then!!!  Until Saturday, everyone have a calm rest of the week…somebody needs to and it’s not going to be me!!!!

Numb

Numb is the only way I know to describe it.  Six years of college is over with as of 5 minutes ago. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry…The entire experience has been a marathon with elements of a sprint thrown in. (Most of the sprinting happened during Fall 2002 & Fall 2004…)

I can now start living my life.  For the last six years, I’ve lived with a deadline over my head, always looking over my shoulder (and at the syllabus) to see what hurdle I had to jump next.  That’s over now! It’s a wild feeling for sure.  I would like to thank my family for helping me get through the whole lot of it. And, of course, I must thank Becca for helping through the final year.  By their help and dedication, I have finished my course. Thank you all and I love you!

Out for the summer!

Tuesday at 10:30 I started my last final of the semester…By 11, I was done with the final and I couldn’t be happier that my semester is finally over!!!!  It’s been a long, stressful year and I don’t think I could ever explain to anybody how hard it has been on me to be away from Travis so much.  I’ve missed him like crazy, and our time together has been far and few between.  While I’ve seen Travis ever weekend, I have hated that I was stuck here so much by school and work that I wasn’t able to spend a lot of special times with him.  Right now, even though I’ve been done with finals since Tuesday, I don’t get to come home for good until Sunday.  Yes, I know, it’s only 5 days, but Travis and I could have lots of wonderful moments together between Tuesday and Sunday.
Well, I hope to be seeing all of you in a few weeks at the most special day of my life-The day I become Mrs. Jerry Travis Smith!  Until then, I’m off to pack up for going home on Sunday and enjoying life with absolutely nothing to do!

One month till the wedding!

Hey everybody!
I woke up this morning to Travis calling me, and my first thought was : It’s one month until the wedding!  In exactly one month, May 27th, I will be Mrs. Jerry "Travis" Smith, and I can not wait until the big day gets here! 

Everybody remember to RSVP to the wedding by May 10th if you plan on attending!  We look forward to seeing you there!!!

Motel rooms for the wedding…

Hey everyone!  I’ve heard that rooms are going quickly in the area surrounding our wedding because it’s Memorial day weekend.  But, don’t let that stop you from attending the wedding!  We’d love to have you there, and we’ll find shelter for you somewhere if you need it!!

My Favorite Firefox Extensions

I’ve been using Mozilla Firefox since version 0.8. I love it. It’s perhaps the best thing to happen to the Internet since Netscape 3.  One of the things I love about Firefox is that it is extensible. You can download hundreds of custom modifications to make Firefox tick just as you want.  Below is a list of the extensions I automatically install on every computer I plan on using for any length of time:

  • Web Developer Toolbar — An indespensible list to allow you to inspect any and every aspect of a webpage and its contents.  It’s the best thing I’ve ever seen for debugging CSS and DHTML code.
  • Tab X — Adds a close button to the corner of each open tab. Some people don’t like this, but I think it makes cleaning up a bunch of open web pages very easy.
  • Colorful Tabs — Makes sorting through tabs very easy, thanks to the soothing colors it assigns each tab.
  • Live HTTP Headers — Shows you exactly what’s being sent to the server. A web designers delight! I used it to debug a Smoothwall box just the other day!

If you don’t already have Firefox, get it now! You’ll be surfing faster and safer!

Wedding Website

I can’t believe it, but I actually forgot to post a link to the wedding website.  So, here it is.  I am honestly very excited about marrying my favorite person in the whole world. With Becca, everything is brighter and more fun. What else can I say…

It’s getting closer!!!

Hey everybody!  Thanks for visiting jerrytravis.com/wedding!  Feel free to e-mail me or Travis, or call the numbers listed above if you have any questions or concerns!  While you’re welcome to send in the paper RSVP card you received with your invitation, RSVPing online is simple and will save a stamp!!  The decision, though, is completely up to you, we just look forward to seeing you there!  The wedding is now less than 1 1/2 months away!  While I’m a little nervous and stress about getting everything done, I can’t wait to the big day!
