thanksgiving weekend
so yeah...
thanksginving weekend. loving the 5 days of no school.
my grandma, sister, and uncle dave came up for a small thanksgiving.
then it was time to go with my dad to my cousin tim's wedding in columbus.
so my mom was ticked when my dad pulled up to our house with his fiance in the car. see my mom has asked that she never be anywhere near our house at any time. but there she was. so my mom refused to let us leave until he promised to never to bring her to the house again.
now, that doesn't sound like alot to me. my mom already has to see him all the time, the man who cherated on her during their marraige, but he was to bring along the woman he commited adultry with. now i deal with having to be around kim, but i dont think my mom should have to. so he kept saying "cathy its time to go, we can talk about this later" over and over. (now if you knew my dad, he would be very hard to confront abou this issue.
so my dad being an idiot decided that he needed to call the police because my mom is "keeping his kids away from him during his parenting time". so he calls the police. my mom tells me and my brother that we can leave. i decide to take a stand for my mom, tell him we're not going until he stops the police and gives my mom a little bit of respect. so he finally gives in and we leave.
we spent friday night with the whole lauer side of the family, ate dinner, played a games of charades like we usually do. it was a good time.
saturday was the wedding. nice ceremony, seemed a lot shorter than others ive been to.
then the reception. toasts, cake, slideshows, music and dancing, whole nine yards.
thougth id mention a little oddity that i dont beleive in.
un fortonatly the preist couldn't come to the reception because he had another wedding to do. so they had no one to say the prayer before dinner. so of all people, they asked my dad, and he did it.
now let me just say one thing. what does this say about the marriage? on the day of the wedding you ask a man who commited adultury to say a prayer before dinner and give his blessing on the marriage.... makes me wonder what i would do when i get married, if i would even let my dad's fiance (it would be wife then, if he will even keep that relationship intact) to come. i mean i cant exactly ask my own father not to come. and i wouldn't want to have him not come, i just wouldn't want his false morals scar my wedding.
and if i sound harsh let me just say: im not done dealing with it all yet, they (my dad and kim) both know exactly what they did, and they don't regret it.
and i've decided dancing at wedding receptions is at this ppoint in time, awkward and pointless. why:
1. half the music seriously sucks. one quarter only kinda sucks. and the remaining is decent/good
2. no one there to dance with. there weren't even any girls within 5 years of me there. so usless you enjoy dancing with your aunt
3. try dancing to "baby got back" while your grandparents are watching. awkward. and after words my aunt (who is about 50) asks "so you know the words to that song?". awkward.
this has to be the longest and most serious entry i've ever had.
dont recall if i put everything in... but hey.
oh and talk about nostalgic, i played pokemon on they car ride down and up. heck yeah!
