l'annee du mariage

when my friend duncan announced to me in december that he asked his girlfriend sarah to marry him and that they would be getting hitched in boston in december 2006, i was excited. i haven't seen duncan since namibia in may 2001 and we made a pact there that we would be at each other's weddings. i think this was a drunk pact, but it counts, still.

and then claudia got engaged to ben and is getting married in california in august.

and then beth and ewan finally set a date for march and will get married in washington.

so what does all of this mean? well, it means that my "get hot" deadline has been reduced again and again. now i only have five weeks to lose the grad school 20 lbs. and get generally desirable.

and now kerstin got engaged to helger in germany, so now comes the wave of foreign weddings. and i will be there will be a wedding for vee in the near future in south africa, and then theo.

so i am going to be buying a lot of plane tickets. stupid me for making friends.

heatherfeather (see link to blog on left) complained....er....rejoiced in the season of babies. well, now i am having the year of weddings, which is only turning into the season of weddings, which i think would be la saison du mariage.

all i have to say is, YOU HAD ALL BETTER GET YOUR ASSES ON THE PLANE WHEN I GET MARRIED TOO!

in other news, 4 days until my birthday party. i am dreaming of presents....hint, hint.
