My good friends from Mile 9, formerly Table Steaks East, Dave & Caroline got married tonight. As I sat through the ceremony and observed all the traditional wedding day quirks, I realized how far I've come over the past year.
Mainly, seeing how happy Dave & Caroline are together and being around dear friends helped to relieve my utterly revolting feelings for the concept of marriage. In fact, for the first time in the past year, all the wedding day details were in my face and I didn't completely vomit in my mouth.
I'm so lucky and happy I'm not married to the wrong man right now. I'm so thankful I'm not in the process of planning a wedding to marry the wrong man. I'm so fortunate I was able to realize and accept it.
Oddly enough, these feelings all came as I sit two rows away from my actual ex-fiancee and his unimpressive blond girlfriend.
Keep your carbs under control with the #1 low-carb tortilla. You’ll get big tortilla flavor without all the carbs of regular tortillas. In fact, there are as few as 5 net grams of carbs per tortilla, depending upon tortilla size. Mission Carb Balance Tortillas are available in soft taco, fajita, and burrito size, are always soft and tender, and deliver the balanced protein-carb-fat ratio that most dieticians recommend.
Strange to think that it was supposed to snow today, and actually did snow in some parts of the state. I broke in my open-toed sandals for the year yesterday, along with white pants. I almost even put the top down except that I'm not 100% healthy yet and I didn't want to push my luck. Maybe tomorrow.
Got my hair done this weekend. I've been considering getting the back cut way shorter so I could spike it and the decision was truly inspired last weekend by East coast cutie My Hanh.
I think the day after daylight savings begins might just be my favorite day of the year. The days are longer now and spring is just around the corner. Which also means that summer is around the corner too. YAY for summer! Now that it's daylight savings, aside from the atomic bedside clock, I know that at least two other clocks in my house will have the correct time for the next eight months.
I finally logged into my myspace page after a 48 day dry spell. I hadn't logged in since just after returning from Derby on January 19. I couldn't even remember my password. Well, it took me a few tries.
And speaking of remember passwords, I renewed my gym membership and have worked out everyday for the past four days, but I couldn't remember my padlock combination. I had it saved in my phone, but was still worried that I might forget it again after locking it up. And yes, I do lock my phone up. It always cracks me up to see girls (I've only ever seen it with girls) on the phone while running on the treadmill or last night there was a girl on the phone while she was using a leg machine. Good thing she wasn't working arms.
And, I broke my final dry spell here after not posting for the entire month of February. But, have you seen how much I've been gone? No excuses. The thoughts are always percolating, it's just getting them all down.
Anyway, here are the slideshows from my recent adventures:
Hunter Stop in Austin, TX (February 2008)
Regional Tour Championships in Spring Hill, FL (last weekend)
You may recognize this song from the recent Apple Macbook Air commercials.
"New Soul" by Yael Naim [go ahead. click on the link. i give you a dollar if you understand a word she's singing.]
Lyrics:
I’m a new soul I came to this strange world hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take. But since I came here Felt the joy and the fear Finding myself making every possible mistake
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…
I’m a young soul in this very strange world hoping I could learn a bit about what is true and fake. But why all this hate? Try to communicate. Finding trust and love is not always easy to make.
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…
This is a happy end cause’ you don’t understand everything you have done why’s everything so wrong
This is a happy end come and give me your hand I’ll take your far away.
I’m a new soul I came to this strange world hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take But since I came here fellt the joy and the fear finding myself making every possible mistake
