That's right, folks! My cousin is getting married on SATURDAY. We're all packing and getting ready to leave tomorrow in the early early morning before the sky's awake. It's only to Iowa, but it's still a pretty hefty drive.
I'm really happy for my cousin. Like, really happy. He found the perfect girl who doesn't put up with his shit and loves him more than anyone else. He's completely devoted to her. It's sweet, really. I'm a little sad that my younger cousin is getting married before me, but it's whatevs.
After going through my last three blog posts, I realized that maybe I'm not as over the Marine as I thought I was. Which is totally cool, because these things take time or whatever. I still haven't talked to him, and I'm expanding my friend pool. I'm also super busy with Vacation Bible School. I'm the director this year, and our theme is a carnival. So there's lots of planning to do, and I've been keeping pretty busy. I want this part of my life to be over. I'm ready to move on from the Marine.
Weddings always make me feel really happy and also really sad because I want to get married too, but first I have to find a guy/girl. It's taking longer than I thought, but then again so did finding a job. The perfect one came along eventually, so I guess the same principal goes for finding love. Also, I've heard it's like the old adage, "A watched pot never boils." I have to quit forcing it and let it happen naturally. I've heard love happens when you're not expecting it. Saying I'm going to stop is a lot easier than actually stopping though.
My Mississippi family is in some trouble right now. One has cancer, and another has lost the will to live. One of my cousin's husbands has a whole slew of health issues that he's addressing. Finally, one of my college professors had a stroke, and when they went in to stop the internal bleeding, the hospital staff found cancer. So he's been knocked out by life's big ass fist. I really want all of them to get better.
That's all on this end, folks. Let me know what's going on in your lives.
I'm off to bed.
Ciao, lovelies!
