Remember when you were like, 23/24 and EVERY weekend for the entire summer was spent at weddings. And odds were good, you were in one or four of them.
Yes - I remember it well. And there are still more than a few dresses hanging in the closet to remind me. And, no its not some 27 Dresses type thing -- There really is only like, 4 of em' in there.
Suffice it to say, I thought we were long past those days.
Not that I don't enjoy a good wedding -- or more importantly a good reception. But, I think we are pushing it this year.
I am a decade past the summer of 23 and all its Innocent, Martial bliss. So these days, its more like, 2 or 3 in a given year.
Until this summer/fall.
We had three this summer.
And kicking off last weekend......
One Friday -- AWESOME party Courtney & Rob
One Saturday - congrats to Tim & Emily.
We have one this weekend.
One the weekend of the 17th
--that makes 2 in Sept and 2 in Oct for those of you keeping score --
And then we hit the high mark -- 3 in November. Two of them destination, and 10 days apart. And I am in one, and Joe is in one.
And we just got a Save the Date for December.
That's 8 weddings between now and the holidays.
That boys and girls is a lot.
So our Saturday's for the next few months will consist of a few glasses of cheap red wine or keg beer, an over-cooked chicken breast or 4 -- and a few turns on the dance floor to either Wonderful Tonight or Wonderful World. With some Black Eyed Peas, I Gotta Feelin' kicked in for good up-tempo measure.
This is not complaining by any stretch of the imagination, just one of those -- holy cow sorta deals. I told Joe at some point we should try and plan a date night that doesn't include a wedding.
Novel idea.
Now Watching: The Colbert Report
