One Word With 2 Meanings

Isn't it funny how one word can have 2 definitions?! As my Wedding approaches, more people are referring to me as a "Bridezilla". Even at my Bridal Shower, my sister created a crossword puzzle about Mike & I, and my nickname was one of the questions. I tried fitting in nicknames of mine like, "Meg", "Mangon" (inside joke), or "MaMa" (what my nephew calls me), but the only word that would fit was "Bridezilla". I thought, where is this coming from, is this how my friends and family perceive me? I, just like every other Bride in the world, has a vision of their big day. They picture their venue, the dress, the ambiance; I see nothing wrong with achieving this vision at any means necessary! Also, what is with everyone telling the anxious bride "Remember, just because it is your big day, doesn't mean it is everyone else's too." You know what, forget that! If you have the honor of being part of my big day, you better make it your big day too. It doesn't need to be on the top of your priority list, but it better be pretty high up there! Am I being unreasonable thinking that way?!

Below you will find 2 definitions of a Bridezilla, I of course am definition #2!!!

#1: Webster's Definition: Bridezilla\ bride-zil-a n 1 Horrific, bulging-eyed bride prone to screaming spells and spontaneous fits of hysterical rage. Bridezillas are known to drop blows over seating charts, get bug-eyed at the mere mention of carnations and view hurling champagne at their wedding planners as a form of hazing.

#2: Bridezilla.com's Definition: Bridezilla\bride-zil-a n 1 Exceptionally attractive, confident women who know what they want and can't be bothered to sugar coat because they are obviously on 100 calorie- a- day micro biotic diets and can't even sneak a pack of Splenda if their life depends on it. Bridezillas are both blessed and cursed with a higher vision of perfection than most mediocre, David's Bridal wearing, Gerber daisy carrying mortals and have no choice but to impart this vision exactly to the masses. It is this motive that drives them to demand nothing less than excellence from their staff-err, wedding party.
