Today was 10 days, tomorrow is 9 days!
I've gotten over that 'how is it so soon?!' feeling and now it's just a reality that we're getting married in about a week. We basically had a dual-meltdown earlier this week, but I feel like we might be over it now.
Tomorrow we are going to wake up early and actually go get our marriage license! Then to the church to deliver it, along with my baptismal certificate, to the priest so he can do all this paperwork. They need my baptismal certificate because it serves as proof within the church that I haven't been married before because they record every sacrament you receive on it, including the sacrament of marriage. What we're not telling him is that this one was sort of legally forged... the church had no record of my baptism :-( But we have photos and the vivid recollection of my Aunt (and godmother) Reenie who says I screamed the entire time. So, based on our claims (they didn't even get to see the photos) they wrote me up a new baptismal certificate. Who knew it was that easy! (Apparently a lot of documents from that time period under that priest are missing, so it made sense to them).
Then we're going to get Glen a wedding ring! I am going to use my great grandmother's, which I am very excited about. Not only is it a family heirloom, but she and my great grandpa were so in love their entire lives that it's got to bring some good luck with it. She was a redhead too! We're talking about getting her wedding date along with our engraved on the inside -- June 21, 2008 and April 11, 1917 :-)
Then to another dance lesson. Don't get excited people, we're just learning to not fall all over each other.
Then three hours of class. Ignore that part.
OK, also, if you're reading this, you should join Twitter. It's just like updating your away messages, but it get aggregated for people who are 'following' you kind of like a news feed. You can update via the web, IM, or text message, and you can choose to have specific other people's updates sent to you those ways too. You can have your twitter updates become your facebook updates so you don't have to do it twice. You can update every five minutes or every five days.
The best part is your updates appear on my homepage! That way when I log it, it's not just alternating updates from me and Glen. (OK, and occasionally from Nate, Geoff, and Echo) Come on, do it for me! As a wedding present, even! :-) When you join, just look me up under redheadmed, 'follow' me, I'll get alerted and then I can follow you. DO IT.
