Pre-congratulations, Sarah and Pete
I’m heading to Ames this evening after work because one of my oldest, dearest friends is getting married this weekend. I am thrilled to have been asked to be a bridesmaid, and my bridesmaid duties start tomorrow. It will be very fun, I think. I’m really looking forward to seeing Sarah and my other co-bridesmaid friends, and weddings are always a good time.
Sarah is the first of my really good friends to get married. I mean, I know I’m getting married myself later this summer, but Sarah’s wedding seems like a real bookmark in time. The next one will be my wedding, the one after that will be the next one of us to get married or even have a baby. Amazing.
There is pizza in the conference room, but we’re not allowed to eat it until the überboss comes out of her office and starts the process. I’m hungry. My stomach was growling audibly all through my last meeting with the tech people from the College of Law. Oooh, I bet I’ll eat and drink well this weekend. Weddings are always filled with gustatory pleasures, plus my dad’s cooking while we stay with them. I miss my dad’s cooking!
