@lyra Wow sounds insane! But as you said in the end you are marrying a great guy! Gah! I agree, I have no idea who would actually enjoy planning a wedding (Except maybe Monica Gellar from FRIENDS), even for me an organizational freak would well freak out! My friend is getting married in two weeks and she has a totally different approach to her planning. It is gonna be a potluck and there is an ‘out shine the bride” competition. So I need to find a ridiculous dress for the wedding now haha Second hand shops are gonna be my friend 😛 So VERY casual and kind of hap hazard, but that is her thing. I don’t imagine I will be going to too many of those kinds of weddings for my future friends. Anyways, Sounds like you have had some amazing luck with work, that is awesome. Things are falling into place 🙂 Okay no more thread jacking! PS. You need to share some pics of the big day with us!! (When, and if you want to, obviously putting your private life online here isn’t obligatory, but in case you are totally comfortable sharing…. :P)
I am not dating right now (except for the casual thing with Navy Guy, which ends when I go home to Ontario), but maybe in the fall/new year. See how life pans out! I am looking forward to it, but also dreading the process of online dating.
@lyra what is up with you woman?!? How goes the wedding planning and life in general?
Ya the whole re birth thing is definitely there for this idea haha but also I was thinking…a dead body is pretty damn stiff, so bending it would just be a nightmare!
Hahah so what a coincidence! Just saw this pop up on my FB newsfeed 😛 Burying your loved ones in a pod that becomes nutrients for a tree! http://www.boredpanda.com/biodegradable-burial-pod-memory-forest-capsula-mundi/
@MsMisery Shhh don’t tell them that haha Don’t worry I don’t believe he is alive. Just interesting that they thing he still is 😛
You guys have probably heard about the monk then they found in the lotus position, the monks say he is not dead, but in some kind of state….so technically alive. Obviously my atheist self does not believe this…but still interesting stuff! And then! Scientists recently found a skeleton in a buddhist statue.

Meh, although I am not totally onboard with the whole embalming thing…the egyptians have been doing something very similar for thousands of years. mummification. Sure it was probably more green then what we are doing now, except for the massive pyramid. But the current american burial ceremony is similar in the sense of preserving our dead/loved ones.
