Wedded Bliss

I am headed to Seattle! The land of great coffee, the space needle and rainy days is also the place where my friend Scott went to grad school and is subsequently getting married this weekend (let's cross our fingers for good weather!!!)

Scott and I have been friends since seventh grade and somewhere during that time we "dated" as well (and by dated I mean, were boyfriend and girlfriend for about five months-- the extent of which being that we talked on the phone one time.) Regardless, we have somehow managed to stick together through the years. Him watching me go from one boyfriend to the next and me watching him move from one coast to the other while listening to him bitch about wanting a girlfriend and then not wanting a girlfriend and then wanting one, etc., etc. Needless to say, it's been a long and interesting decade or two.

Now that he is getting married, I'm not exactly sure what our friendship is going to look like. I am hoping things don't change that much (well, except for the girlfriend stuff of course :)) but I suppose that may just come with the territory. Either way, I just want to say, Scott, although I know my tolerance of you can sometimes be low, the light in my life would be a little less bright if you weren't in it.

Congratulations Scott and Flora!!! I am so happy for you guys!!

And more importantly, his last :)
