Congratulations to Joe and “Laura”:http://stick_figure.livejournal.com/ on their wedding this past Saturday. The location was beautiful, the food was great, and the party was a lot of fun. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Laura so giddy. I have a candid photograph of them from the wedding side-by-side with the biggest grins on their faces. It makes me very happy to see. Of all the people I know, Laura has always been so supportive, so genuine, so honest, and so caring to me. I’m very glad to see her this happy.
My best wishes to you both. May you each always have happiness in each others smiles, support in each others hands, understanding in each others eyes, and the messiest of beds.
I’m going to start sewing pockets into my dresses. Then again, I suppose I could’ve tucked a note or two in my bra. I would have carried around toast notes and my drivers license. That way, Joe wouldn’t have been embarrassed at the Dome when I drunkenly shrieked, “They want my ID?!?” and I wouldn’t have forgotten people I wanted to recognise. Joe’s aunt just had a birthday. I had people there from literally the other side of the world. And you guys, whose love I so admire, just had your third anniversary. Instead I babbled some platitude about love bringing everyone together, when at least for my family, it was curiosity about the cousin nobody’d ever met. But I think it was a good time for all.
