Lord have merrrcccy
some kid at my little brother's school busted his head open when he reached down to get his pencil and tripped on something. my dad said he saw so much blood when he went to go pick up sam today. the paramedics were there. that's wild.
my parents and i had dinner alone tonight because arianne, julia and whitney were out doing stuff with church and sam had taco bell. of course we got to talk about the wedding stuff. and it looks like it's coming together. they keep telling me to postpone the wedding...of course they're not really serious because their requests always come after my mom pouts and says, "you're getting married already...."
i really am gonna miss my family a whole lot. i was talking to keith last night on the phone, and i was crying and crying my eyes out. and this wasn't the first time, either. i keep thinking of how ironic timing is that now that i finally have a good, solid, honest relationship with my parents, it's time for me to get married. the timing for keith and i getting married really is the best time, and just cause i'm getting married doesn't mean my relationship with my parents and my family will suffer. i just have to make sure i hold on to certain traditions and uphold good strong values in me and keith's family.
what really got to me was when i was putting sam to bed, i layed down with him and i said, "sam, you know i'm getting married this summer." and he says, "i know." and he asked me, "where you gonna live again? in texas?" and i say, "yeah..." he says, "if keith quits his job there, can't you move back here?" i didn't nkow what to say. but i'm gonna miss sam a lot. the thing is i can't come back here. and that's not a terrible thing either. i love being here, but i think i'd feel this melancholy 5 years from now. i wish i could just fast forward to me and keith's first new year as a married couple and see that i'll be really happy and that i won't be missing my family as much as i think i'm going to now. did that make sense? this really is a joyous occasion, i'm really happy and ready to get married, i just need my parents to really be on my side. they are...but we're still in the first few months of the engagement. as if this day would have never come! why can't we prepare ourselves for these things?
anyway, after dinner, i told my parents this...i think it made them kinda happy. i think they thought i just want to be out of the house. that's not true. i want to start my life with keith.
tomorrow my mom, arianne and i will go and check out one of the options for the reception. also, tomorrow, my mom's buying keith and i a hope chest from Bombay company. when i find out how to post links, i'll post one...i want you ALL to see! it's so nice!
