It is June 21st (Solstice!) and I am already behind, basically; it takes eighteen months for most people to do these and I'm determined to do it in six. He's left it all up to me, so I have a venue for ceremony and reception, a date, a florist, a DJ, a ceremony musician, event rentals, lighting specialists, a caterer, invitations calligrapher, transportation, and ...I'm sure other things that are slipping my mind at 5:30 AM. There's a lot to get hammered out yet, but I've got beginnings in most things, except as it pertains to my Henry's clothes, his groomsmen, and my dress and bridesmaids'. I feel like I should let him decide something for himself, he did very well with the ring.
You did. I completely concede; you can take out a skywriter. God, it really hasn't been very much time, has it?
I will be ready w/ hard liquor for your beau, like any good friend
in Greece you do presents on New Year's vs Christmas, usually, but since so much of our family lives in America or Europe we kind of do half and half, people get an extra whatever on the 1st, usually something awful, and we have a huge party and then watch fireworks.
Good man. I am up at 5:30 AM looking at dresses and he's giving me this sleepy look like '...Hasi', so that may be soon.
That sounds like a pretty good time! Kurdish New Year is...not even in January (also, it involves jumping over fire), but I like the more conventional one, too.
I also apologize for my Henry's cropped hair but I like it. :(
Now I'm googling Sweden.

See, the nice thing about kind of being part of two cultures is you get double holidays.
