A Wedding during Ernestos
Thats right. I just went to a wedding. In the middle of a hurricane.
Well, not really. Its only starting to come but... hey it sounds funny.
So yeah um one day Im checkin my myspace and my best friend when i was nine has a comment from someone that says "You're getting married!!??"
WWHAAATT!!??? This girl is still like only a year older than me right???? Is she not freakin SEVENTEEN!?!?!
O those sweet innocent childhood memories.... her teaching me the f word.... learning where babies come from..... what to do when your parents are mad and drunk...... mmmmmm
and eventually my mom got enough sense to not let me visit over there anymore...
I dont know how this didnt influence a shy naive little nine year old. Then I realize - it was all God...
I read my dad the "myspace invitation" something about the dress code being jeans and a t shirt.... something about going to an afterparty to get wasted..
after i was done reading he was like... "ewwww"
But, in spite of how it sounded, it was actually a really cute wedding. It was at the Louisa courthouse, outside, near pitch black.. so we had to have these huge blinding lights set up. When she walked out of the car in her white strapless gown... i just almost cried. She is so innocent. Her heart is. Thats who she is. No matter how much crap is surrounding her life, no matter what hole shes gotten herself into - she still is an innocent sweet little girl... way down on the inside. But it cant own her wholly. Because the world beat her up...
and no one tries to fight back
thats all i have to say tonight.
