Gillian's Wedding

Uneventful events.

I hate it when I can't get my thoughts together for an upcoming talk. I've had the slip for 2 months and now I have writer's block. I know I have too much on my plate and I'm not feeling the best, but come on. I don't know what's up with me sometimes.

Gil's party is tomorrow. I'll try not to embarrass her too much. I got her some cute things. I hope she likes them. I have no idea who will be there. I have to make brownies. That is all I know. I need to get my eyebrows waxed. Oh the joy. I don't particular enjoy that but I'll do it for a friend. Or am I really doing it for me?

Crazy crazy weekend

This weekend was action packed. Free movie in the park, featuring The Princess Bride was canceled on Fri. Mom and I went to the Enzian to see The Savages with Phillip C. Hoffman. Not a bad movie. I got the wonderful news that (drum roll please) Anthony Bourdain will be the guest star at the Florida Film Festival. Awesome. I've mentioned before how much I love him.

I saw a preview for this French Cartoon called Percepolis. It looks really interesting. I pondered that as I sat drinking mate for the first time. I have to start drinking that. It is really delicious. Esp. with honey.

Yesterday was Seth and Robyn's wedding. Things went great. I'll have to post some pictures. You'd be surprised what the young people request for music. "Can you play Ying Yang twin's Low?" "Uh, no." The wedding went on to 11. I was so tired. Two nights in a row going to bed after midnight doesn't do the body good. At least I slept until 9 today. Had my 2nd cup of coffee. Life is good.

I'm a Bridesmaid

It's not a bad thing. My good friend Gil is getting married in Feb. I have to pick the dress up this Thursday. My other friends and I have been trying to figure out if we need a wrap to go along with the strapless dress. To be honest, I've never worn a strapless dress in the Kingdom Hall. I think I'll feel a little like I did at Shazia's wedding.

Last year ( actually, I was technically sort of a bridesmaid for that wedding, too) I wert to my sister's friend's wedding. She had a huge Indian wedding. My sister said it would be fine if I wore a strapless dress. "Oh, there will be lots of American people there. That would be fine," she assured me.

"Well, what are you wearing?" I asked her.

"A sari," she replied.

So what happens? Me and Christina's two friends are the only ones in western dress. Then, I was asked along with Christina, Tiffany, and Kim to help usher the bride in. It was really cool. I wish I had pictures.

So in conclusion, I like being a bridesmaid. Am I still a bridesmaid if I'm married? Is it bridesmatron? I don't really know
