Tomorrow is the first day of the last month before the rest of our lives
Today we slept in. I played some more DDR before showering and changing. Decided to wear the stuff I bought at Kohl's yesterday... the shorts are a win but I definitely feel too heavy to wear tank tops. But I'm trying to get less self-conscious about it. We went to Geagle and I got stuff for strawberry shortcake. I first ran into Ted Wong, who was coming over for dinner, who apparently had also bought stuff for dinner. Whee. I also ran into Mike the tenor sax player from Kiltie, who I chatted with for a while. Eli and I got stuff, and went home, at which point I goofed off for a while.
People showed up a little after 7. Eli heated up his barley soup stuff for dinner and Rochberg brought salad and Ted and Addie brought sundried tomato bread and dip and this weird chocolate mayo cake with pure sugar icing. Eh, so we ate a whole lot of food and talked for like five hours. (But we had enough food for like ten people, not five.) Addie and Ted are getting married next summer, so there was a lot of Addie giving me advice and Ted making fun of it like "Dude, Vegas will cost you $850, you know". Shrug. It was interesting I guess because they had never been over here before, and except for like five minutes at a lodge party once where I showed up with Christmas lights in my hair, I hadn't ever really talked to Addie, so that was cool.
It does make me wonder what happens to all the crap printed for brides though. I mean, it must all fall into a black hole - it's not like you ever really plan to use all of those magazines and books and crap again, so they get passed from person to person, or thrown out, or whatever. Must be a wacky industry to be in though...
