Its a monday

On the Wedding....

Well, after spending this last weekend getting one of my best friends married, its now monday after work. It is still sort of weird for me, since he was the first one of us to get married. All I can say is I'm glad I only had to put up with the wedding stress for 2 days. I was so tired after the wedding, I slept for 12 hours, and all I had to do was make sure a)the marriage license, b) the rings, and c) the groom all made it to the church by 1:15. Luckily for me, I didn't forget any of those, although I'm not sure what of those was the least important.

I was also happy that they had decided to take some pictures before the wedding. We got hte groomsmen + Groom's pictures taken, and then went and watched the OSU vs. BG game while the Bride and bridesmaids had theirs taken. It turns out that the guys did 2 things wrong during our pictures. We forgot to turn on the candleabra on the alter (no biggy, the women just left it off). But even worse than that, apparently in the bride's church, putting anything on the alter other than "official religious stuff" is a BAD THING (tm). They brought the flowers in while we were there, and since no one knew what to do with them, the Florist just arranged them on the sides of the alter, about where you would expect flowers to go if there weren't any flower stands there (which they had, but they were put away off in a side room and we didn't see). Luckily none of us was struck down by lightning while we were taking pictures.

The other best man and I figured out how much all the groomsmen spent on the wedding. We decided that it would be better for us to just ask for $150 from everyone and elope. Plus, you don't have to have an opinion on the color of the bows hanging from the pews! On the other side, one of the bridesmaids was quite fun to be with, good looking and single. Too bad she has to live 6 hours away. :(

On the Car....

I got my car back today, and the damage wasn't near as bad as i had feared. Ended up being about $65, oil change included so that wasn't bad at all. From what I can make out on the receipt, they cleaned and adjusted my rear brakes, and the right adjuster was stuck. Now I'm good for another 3-5k miles or so, and hopefully the brakes don't get stuck again.

as the 'other best man', i'd like to say "ahhh...wasn't that a great weekend." I'd like to extend some thanks to Aaron for getting married so we could all get together and drink till the wee hours of the morning one last time.
