I've been loving life since about Thursday. It started out with having coffee with Drew for 4 hours!!! We sat there and totally chatted for 4 hours, actually talking to each other and revealing things we normally wouldn't have in our "drunken dr. phil" talks.
The night didn't stop there..we went and hung out with Billy and Daisy and went to some funny mexican's house where they were drinking, it was a good time. I didn't really drink, but I love watching other people..especially Daisy! That girl had 4 yager bombs and climbed on Billy. We were all laughing hard.
Friday was a simple day, then when I was talking to my baby, he asked about Kristen and I decided to call Kristen. I missed her and it had been about a week since we chatted. I picked her up and she came with me to the mall to get some earrings to match my dress and then we got a bite to eat. We caught up, she told me about "her greg" and we talked about mine (how cute is that?) it came to be about 8:30ish..I knew greg would be home soon and she had a date with her Greg, so I thought I'd call it a night....Not quite yet. Kristen texted me and she wanted me to join her and Greg at Fred's in Old Town...I was already in bed, I was talking to my baby on the phone...but he said to get out and have a drink..ok...so I dressed myself, made sure I didn't look like a slob and made my way over. Greg bought me a cabo-rita (how sweet!) It had tequila and blue caraco..and that's all i remember....It seriously took me about 45 minutes to down that. What can I say, I don't drink much anymore. He had ordered me a second one and I told the waitress I'd have a blue hawaiian instead. NOW THAT was a good drink. It neared 1:30 and I had to call it a night. I was buzzed, tired, and had a weddding to attend where I didn't want to look like crap...
I remember waking up at 11:30 or so and rolling over. Having a few conversations with Greg here and there and finally getting my butt in the shower. The funny thing was Laarni calling me at 12 saying she was getting the gift. I knew she was gonna be running late. I made plans to meet up with her for the wedding later. At 2:10 I was on my way to meet her at the hall and the girl was still getting ready and she had to pick up lalaine! Ahhhh. I offered to pick up lalaine and she wasn't ready. EEK! We're gonna be late. She got in the car and I just told Laarni to meet us at the church. 2:55 p.m...yes, we've made it and we're not late. I saw some of the others had just parked as well...and the groomsmen were outside...why? The bride wasn't there yet...we'll I'm glad we were on time....
The Bride and her maids were late about an hour. People were hungry and cranky. After the ceremony, everyone headed over to the hall. Some people had stopped and got something to eat too. Walking around with their drink cups..uh huh...lol. They had it catered and that dumb staff had the nerves to be picking at the food when us, the guests, had to watch them as we waited for Billy and Daisy to arrive...what I wouldn't give to kick one...I did see Jessica Barris there. It was so nice to catch up and that girl is going to be someone important in D.C. one day, I swear. They arrived and the night seemed to blend...we ate...watched the dances..caught up on what was going on, why everything was late. People had started to leave earlier and I couldn't really blame them much...the wedding had started late..and they were tired and hungry and the kids all running around. Who could blame em.
The wedding was beautiful. Daisy looked beautiful and I know those two were soo happy when it was all over...
The next day, I met up with Maria and Laarni joined us later for some coffee. It was nice to caqthc up, talk about Greg, and Glenn and future plans to move. Maria's been thinking about Chicago and we chatted about my moving to Austin, and then who knows where. We were discussing weddings and all that girly stuff. It was such a good time..Maria had to leave at about 6 and Laarni and I headed over to Billy's parents house were Laarni gave them their gift late and we just hung around. Poor Daisy had an eye infection and it was a good time to hang around outside just catching up. The funny thing is daisy didn't know I was moving. I could swear everyone knew I was..hmmm. It was nice to see them and it is sad, but life moves on. I'm in love and one day I want a family and it starts with us. I may not have the engagement ring, but we've talked about it through and through and that boy never lets me forgets how much he loves me...and you can't blame a guy for wanting to give me a ring that we don't owe money on.
Love is in the air..
