weekends pass by so fast. i went to james and joana's [people from my church] wedding today and it was so much fun. everything about the wedding reflected so much of who they are. instead of a traditional wedding processional, the bride walked down the aisle to the "going to the chapel, and we're gonna get married" song. so awesome. the actual ceremony was like 20 minutes max - quick and to the point. they had a jazz trio play for a bit and also friends and family who sang. james' brother and friend sang At Last - the etta james song. it was way cool as that is a current favorite. the slide show was great and had fun music - the grease medley summer nights, greased lightning, and that "you'd better shape up" song. it's one of the funnest weddings i've been to because it was so different and unique to their personalities. afterwards, since we all were dressed up and pretty, we went to have dessert at the georgian room at the four seasons hotel downtown - it was posh and swank as expected, and i felt totally out of place - way too sophisticated for me.

now i have to wash the styling lotion crap out of my hair... oh yea...so earlier today, in an effort to fit in all pretty at the wedding, i decided to curl my hair... yea...i suck at the primping and styling. for awhile, it was looking like i was electrocuted. good thing water calmed it down. i think that there should be like a crash course lesson or something for girls, like "how to..." and fill in the blank with stuff like ...to apply makeup or ...style your hair or ...dress well. of course...not all girls need such help, just a few of us.

praise the Lord for daylight savings and an extra hour of sleep!
