Today its has been rainy, cold, and windy. Its as if God is saying "no more summer". Its a bitter sweet feeling.
These past few days i have spent getting back to normal. I spent Thursday at my friend Matt's bachelor party! It was a really lot of fun getting to see Andy, James, Trenton and hang out with the guys. I dont get to spend a whole lot of time with other guys because of work and school! Although its probably a good thing it was nice to get to spend some time enjoying life and get to know some new people. Its funny how people can open up in different situations. I got to get to know some different guys that i have known for a really long time but have never really talked to or had a real conversation with.
Friday morning we all when to the rehearsal hall( it was a barn). As the others in the group moved things around and decorated the place Courtney and I got the job of putting all the silverware in the napkins. It was quite the job! We talked food, life and collage. We were both dying of hunger when we were done( talking about food does that does that to you;) . the rest of the day was spent at the rehearsal for Sandy and Matts wedding. We all worked hard to get all the usual kinks out. Afterward i sat behind my mic and sang for a good hour. Afterward i felt a bit guilty having not helped the ladys get the church all set up. Of course i didnt think of that until later. Then we all headed to Sandys Parents for the after party and of course the food( I had missed lunch and was feeling quite empty and hollow). We spent the rest of the moving two hay wagons together for dancing on but ended up moving into the barn( because of the cold weather). We hooked up a laptop to the barn radio and danced for a good three hours.
Saturday I had to work in the morning but got done in time to get my tux and clothing ready.Then we packed everything into Marys car and followed Mary( who was driving in my parents huge van) to the church. The rest of the morning was spent tuning guitars, sound check and taking pictures with the rest of the grooms men. The actual wedding went by rather fast. The pictures were taken afterward by Xav and Courtney ( who both did a great job).Then it was off to the reception. We all ate and then it was on to dancing. I got alot of funny looks from people watching but w it was still a blast ! Half way through my energy gave out. I spent alot of time just trying to cool off( i was really sweating). Not long after the bride and groom left the party started to die. Trenton and I ended the evening with some karaoke. I have never been a big fan of doing things like that( and even lest of a fan of karaoke) but it was worth making the memories with an old friend. I just hope that no black mail videos of it get put on the internet.
