two of my favorite people are getting married this summer. i'm so excited and happy for them! honestly, they've been a couple so long i figured they'd never get married. the wedding was initially supposed to be in a catholic church in brooklyn, followed by a reception hall place in dumbo. a really generic idea for two un-generic people. meant to appease their parents. especially the church wedding. i didn't really get it. he has the biggest collection of occult books, even though he was raised catholic. neither of their politics are in line with the church's. (but who's really is? my family is like the kennedys. liberalist of liberal except my one archie bunker uncle.)
church wedding was scrapped for getting married on a sailboat! this idea is SO them. kevin worked on sailboats in boston when taryn was in law school. they both love the beach and the ocean. the new plan is perfect.
last night we had our bridesmaid pow wow. me, two lawyers and another bridesmaid who works at a law firm. and to think i once wanted "to go to SU and become a lawyer"!
at one point i escaped from the table while they were trying to figure out how to pay for dinner so kara could expense it. planning the bachelorette party should be interesting. t wants to go rollerskating and has put a ban on any novelty items usually found at those parties.
then maybe karaoke. t does a rousing rendition of oasis. i'll stick to "talk dirty to me", my song selected by process of elimination years ago at lit. after i realized that blondie "atomic" doesn't have many lyrics. and "don't stand so close to me" will cause you to hyperventilate.
"your life has been a message in a bottle
dumped in the ocean, never reaching any shore"
