technocracygirlHow tired were we? We got home, and wanderingfey was asleep by nine-ish. This is the equivalent of going to bed in the afternoon for him.
The wedding was lovely. Shortest ceremony on record, but that's not actually surprising, given the couple in question.
The glasses did not ting properly. This makes me sad.
The set up was remarkably simple, and everything got put together very well. And wow; until the sun went down, the scenery was gorgeous. I have not spent enough time on windy, rainy beaches. (I have now, however, spent more than enough time on windy, rainy beaches in high heeled sandals and sans warm coat.)
Everyone seemed happy to be there. No real drama was had (thank heavens!) The bride was shining and beautiful, the groom was shining and beautiful, andlithera did a decent job of seconding them, if I do say so myself.
And, as Cantor Serkin-Poole toldwanderingfey and I, at the end of the day, you'll be married. Nothing else matters. And so it was.
MJ told me she had no doubts that eventually it would happen. Me, I was a lot more skeptical. Not for the past year or three, but before that. I was certain that if the relationship were going to last, it would not be under the heading of "married." But people grow and change, things that were once important are not as important as other things. I don't know how much the legalisms mean totrilliumgrl and seanb, but I think that the public announcement of it all meant something to them.
And I just now realized that I never actually congratulatedtrilliumgrl last night. Foolish me. I do congratulate her, and wish her all the best life has to offer that she has not gotten already. *hug*
Anyway, it was a very nice party. I've been feeling really twitchy about this "going on a business trip for three weeks" thing, and so it was really nice to see people before the Thanksgiving/trip craziness ensues.
And on a completely different note, I am well on my way to becoming a b*tch when I grow up.
