WEDDING
Christine and Jeff's wedding reception was part dance party, part ice cream
social, part cupcake orgy, part outdoor gala, part photobooth, part indoor
sit-down meal, 100% fantastic.
And I thought it was Sunday, but it wasn't... oops. (And I still need and
would like to get them a gift. I love my Miloro part of my family just as much,
if not more, than my side of the family and therefore I need to get them
something nice. Pretty sure I'd be a lonely and bitter classless
buttface without them in my life. I'm serious.)
Anyway, we eventually got there and stayed as long as we could until we
realized we had to drive from Baltimore to Greenbelt AND feed our cat, so we
left about 15 minutes before the wedding ended.
But not before we got our picture taken! Aren't we cute?
PLAY
Big River so happens to be a play based off of the great American novel The
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, one of the most awkward stories in the world as
it highlights the late 1800s social injustice of slavery in the United States.
And the N word.
But the musical is pretty extraordinary. I got to hear one of my dearest
friends, David, sing and dance and be goofy for a large part of the play and he
did such a good job that sometimes I forgot I was there to see him and instead
just enjoyed the show. Immensely. The whole cast should be proud of their
accomplishment.
REFLECTION
I've been thinking a lot lately on whether or not Greg and I will be having
a wedding after I graduate, maybe in 2016. Or if that's too long to wait. When
we got married last year at the courthouse, it was maybe the opposite of how I
wanted things to be. I've always wanted a small outdoor affair with lots of
dancing and a crab feast. But I don't know where. I wanted it to be a backyard
thing but now I'm thinking that a park would be more appropriate. I think a park
would be perfect, especially a place like Sandy Point. I'm thinking a crab
feast and cookout with benches, some outdoor karaoke, dancing, and games. No
idea if I'd ever be able to afford any of that, but I can see all of us just
being awesome in a park one day and I'm going to leave it at that for now.
I'm afraid of what could happen if we wait too long--who could be there and
who couldn't. I just feel like after I graduate would be best.
