You probably already know this but for anyone else, a Flexible Spending Account via your health insurance is only usable that year. A Health Savings Account is yours always, even if you leave the job/plan it started with. An HSA allows for tax deductible savings, and can even be invested. A good strategy for those in this situation.
Shouts to Will on the sage advice on Xanax. Benzos and alcohol is never the move, and snorting it is going to increase the effects and risk dramatically.
Being engaged is literally just a stres-test of your relationship. If you can stand the sight of each other after all of the bullshit, you’ll probably make a decent married couple.
Of course, not everyone who speaks the words “how are you?” is actually asking.
But sometimes,they are. And sometimes, when you’re riding that ragged edge, you need to tell them that you’re not okay. Bear in mind I’m talking about parents/siblings/significant other/close friend here.
Something about your comment seems red-flaggish. I could be wrong. In any case my message is that if silence isn’t working for you then call out for help. Fuck being polite.
Under the strict assumption that I’m not actually paying for this shit, I would actually walk away from this encounter as the groom feeling thrilled. Old Timmy boy seems perfectly suited to making Girl’s vapid dreams come true and his can-do attitude is really reassuring
Regarding changing your last name. Your thoughts sound very much like my wife’s, and while I can see the logic behind Dillon’s perspective, it’s not universal. She kept her last name, and no one close to us thinks we’re half assing things. You do you.

Not much to add to all of the other comments except another voice wishing you all the best.
On the other end of the spectrum, the pizza delivery to the venue at the end of the night is a fucking godsend.
I’m personally considering stealing your Friday night fajita tradition. Being a regular is the best.
Once saw a middle aged woman order a Kahlua on the rocks with a twist of lime. Absolutely bizarre.
Nothing wrong with cheap whiskey in the right circumstances, but if you’re taking it neat at least go with call liquor.
Oyster bar crawl could either go very right, or very, very wrong. Accompanying drink selection is key.

VTI all day. We’re just trying to buy a house circa 2020, so my head is in “short” term mode.
Valid point. But risk has a time and a place.
Depends on the savings goal.

You nailed that last one.
In retrospect, Dillon being an ass-tat guy should have been obvious.
Timothée doesn’t negotiate, because Timothée doesn’t work with anyone who gives a fuck about what he’s charging.
This was incredibly well written, but all I keep coming back to is that it makes Micah’s latest article seem even more incoherent.

100%. There’s not playing the theater’s game, and then there’s outright stealing from them. Trash move (pun unavoidable).
