honestly, i think these days it's more about what's accepted among your circle of friends.

and none of my friends/family will go all cat-butt-face over it, i don't think, it just made me cringe a little.

i love my sister and i very much appreciate that she is sweet enough to throw me a shower.

I'm gonna pretend I'm your sister for a minute, here's my thought process... - Jim Oct 3, 12:10 1

i think it's hard to know how some of this etiquette stuff translates to evite and FB event using people. - TFox Oct 3, 12:09 5
- See, this is where I fall. Dammit...you KNOW I'm bringing a gift, do I have to beg you for the registry? -- nm - Jim Oct 3, 12:11 4
  - Truthfully, though, you can usually look up registries without a URL, even without knowing the stores. -- nm - loosilu Oct 3, 12:12 3
    - If I'm really speaking truthfully, I don't care where anyone registers. I'm giving cash. nm - Jim Oct 3, 12:13 2
      - Next year, I'm making it even simpler: If you want to drink, keg stand. -- nm - Jim SI Oct 3, 12:15
      - there you go! but I would say most of the time I find registries on my own. There are a few central locations. -- nm - loosilu Oct 3, 12:14
i'm pretty rigid about those sorts of rules, but when i threw a baby shower a few years ago, i put the registry on the invitation. - Andie Oct 3, 12:09
