it was a very good year

Wedding!

I'm a week late in posting this, but the wedding and everything leading up to it was great...perfect weather (OK, maybe a bit hot...) and time spent with friends. It was wonderful for all of us to be on the same coast, in the same city, for an entire weekend...drinking beers, eating chips and salsa, watching Kings games...felt just like old times...complete with the part where I definitely feel older, if not wiser...Made me miss those good ol' days of 1997 when I lived on 26th & J (right across the street from Rob Cockeyed) and I'd come home from work, run up to my apartment to change into jeans and then run back down to join Tom & Rachel & Laura for a few beers and neighbor-watching...Looking back I think that was one of the happiest years of my life. Which is kind of funny to say if you know me and know the circumstances of that time...all in all, I know now that it was a very good year...and even though I keep telling myself that I am, to quote Baby Grand, much too young for this nostalgia...it was nice to relive some of its finer moments during Marcus & Laura's wedding festivities...I know, I know...weddings always make me sentimental....
