I love Fridays (and other randomness)
Actually, I love Saturdays. But you know what I mean.
Today, as I was leaving work, it was raining. Actually, this is East Anglia, so it was more like a spitting mist, pelting you in the face. But you know what I mean.
On the days I take my umbrella with me, naturally, it doesn't rain. But today I forgot my umbrella, so by the time I got on the bus, my hair was wet and I was shivering. That's right folks, I ride the bus. I don't drive to work because parking would be something ridiculous like 13 pounds a day. And I don't cycle, because, well, I don't want to.
My mom is getting married, y'all. Is that crazy or what? I mean, she's actually having a wedding and the whole shebang. I'm happy to report I will be gaining two more sisters in the process. Between my mom and her man Ed, they will have 7 grown daughters, not to mention all the men and children that come along with them (at last count, it's something like 6 men and 12.5 kids). Oh what fun we will have on the rare occasion that we are all together!
This wedding means that we'll be making a trip to Oklahoma a bit sooner than expected to be at their wedding in November. And lucky me, it's the same week as my grandma's 90th birthday bash! Oh, and my brother-in-law's birthday. And two weeks before Thanksgiving. Good timing, ma. Looking forward to seeing some of you Okies (and Texans) in the near future!
