Wedding: The Process of Removing Weeds From One's Garden

I was so wiped out after this weekend I didn't have a chance to write this until today

/If they're waiting for me, they're gonna be waiting a long time, it would seem./

Stop being such a negative nelly. Unless you're being facetious, then, carry on. ;D

[timtwoface]

No, that was said with a wry but logical smile on my face. :p

[a_happenstance]

I'm not entirely sure I'm familiar with that smile!

Sounds like a fantastic way to celebrate a wedding. The scenery is spectacular and-- public drinking, did you say? Smashing!

Bowen Island looks like the sort of place I'd be mondo excited about, and harp on hyper-like until the ferry pulls in and my toes touch the ground and I drag whoever I'm with to go on a hike with me, only to collapse two minutes later because I have crappy asthmatic/smoker's lungs. And because I'm secretly 9 years old a nutter, I'd drink me nightcap and sing the Lumberjack song in flannel and suspenders.

Yeah, add me to that list of people who won't be getting married anytime soon.

That's OK. If you somehow managed to show up I'd love to play tour guide. It would be a lovely trade off for you letting me hide in your suitcases for SDCC. :D

And considering the amount of booze consumed, I don't know if "smashing" is the correct word to use, rather than just "smashed". ;)

PS - Hey have you MSN or anything? I'd love to chat some time IF you in fact have it. If not, ignore my request! :p

[stinglikeabee]

Man, I must be the last person on earth without MSN. I do have AIM, mostly for work and writing, and Skype too. It's skicaramel on the former if you'd like to add me :D

Funny how common culture pushes marriage.

When people ask me, I say 1 of 2 things:
None of your business, but thanks for asking. Or,
Now what would cause you to assume I WANT to get married at all?

For most intents and purposes I'm pretty anti-marriage. I personally refuse to get married until everybody who WANTS to, legally CAN (freedom of individual rights for gays and lesbians).

I think marriage is hard to get right. and I would just want to MAKE SURE I was going to get it right.

So if those jokers keep teasing you, just politely remind them that there's more to life for some people than the goal of: trying to get married.

[timtwoface]

Uh, they weren't teasing. I think people just wanted to have a party. I can't blame them. ;)
