Family and the Suburbs

Life … Love … and the ever evolving world with children …

Archive for June, 2004

Today is my last day at work before the wedding … Kris and Chevy are getting on a plane tonight and will be here in the morning … I can’t fucking wait to see her … it has been since March of 2001 since we last saw each other … this might actually be the longest we have gone without seeing each other since we were 14 years old … it is going to be great … and tomorrow afternoon Heather will be getting on a plane to be here tomorrow night …

the time is finally here …

up until a few minutes ago none of this seemed real … until Kris called and said she was packing cause they were going to the airport at 9 tonight … then it hit me … this is my wedding … I haven’t been working on all these projects for someone elses wedding … crazy man …

all the family stuff I am just letting go of … there is nothing I can do and I can’t spend my time worrying about other people … they can worry about themselves … what is done is done …

I still have a ton of stuff to do but I will have a couple of days at home to work on stuff while Kris, Chevy and Heather are out sightseeing … I am sure I will get everything done in time …

Yesterday I went and had my eyebrows waxed and shaped for the first time in my life … I felt so decadent and guilty … like I really didn’t need to be doing something so extravagant … but I did have a gift certificate for it [obviously Kris was trying to tell me something] and they did come out quite nice … but I don’t think it is something I could actually spend money on on a regular basis … just not my style … and since no one has noticed I am thinking it wasn’t too necessary …

My dad is just getting over being really sick and it sounds like my mom might be getting it now … that won’t be good … weather.com also is predicting rain for the whole weekend … again, not good … they are having a party the night before and planned on using their deck … so just to be on the safe side I am stopping at CostCo today on my way home and buying a tent they could set up … just in case … neither need to know about it and if we use it great … and if not CostCo will always take it back … I would prefer that to happen but we will see … at least the wedding and reception are inside the same location so once people get there they won’t have to worry about going out in the rain … schwoooooo …

damn man in a few short days I am going to be a Mrs. … who would have thought???
