A Necessary Evil

So, I just ordered our Save the Date cards (or StDs, as they are known to the wedding-wise. There are a lot of sexual innuendo'd phrases in the wedding world. But I digress). It was arduous.

Between personal malfunctions (could not find an appropriate picture *anywhere*), font frustrations (why does NO ONE have an ornate font THAT INCLUDES ORNATE NUMBERS! why?!?), the technological one almost sent me over the edge.

I was seriously contemplating handwriting each note, then tying it to a rock and throwing it at our invitees. Seriously. The Vikings would have wanted it that way....

I was using PSPrint, which is an overall good website with Excellent Customer Service. I know, because I spent about 20 minutes talking with their help line or whoever answers the 1-800 number trying to figure out why my uploaded photos would not show up. The employee was fairly patient with me, was able to research exactly what was going on, then hand-hold me through the rest of the process. I *really* appreciated that!

We should receive them next week, then we can address & stamp them (sorry, you are all getting computer-printed address labels on these!) and get them in the mail. The #1 downside is that apparently PSPrint will NOT put our blog address on the cards. Sooo, guess who gets to stick little labels on all the postcards with our blog address??? (hint: his initials are E J)
