Money~ma, Aimee.

Gone through another cycle of laundry. I need to get what just came out of the dryer put away.

For those of you keeping score at home, I have declined to add liquid fabric softener to any loads other than towels, so far. I threw a dryer sheet in with the permanent press shirts.

OK, back to folding.

cash-on-the-barrel-head~ma for the Empress.

Three loads of laundry done today. None of them are folded yet. I need a folding monkey.

I'm guessing I'm the only one who managed to get married twice to the same person. We got married by a judge in Tennessee and then got married in a church in Wisconsin two months later. We never told the family we were already married when we had the second one. My ex was really wierd and like a dope I went along with it.

askye, I hope the pain is better until your appointment. I'm sorry you have to wait so long.

Did you get the license twice, Sail? Cause I have friends who got legally and ceremonially married in a Native American ritual, but had the big friends and family wedding privately at a cave (he's a big caver) about two weeks later. Friends knew about the ceremony, but the family didn't.

I've seen pix of the ceremony after-shots, and my friend Heather was as green as a shamrock. She says a large part part of her wedding consisted of trying not to puke from being smoked out. She looked happy and naseauous, tho.

And my mom and dad got divorced and remarried about 2 years later. Weird thing -- I KNOW I went to their wedding (2nd one) but I do not remember one single thing about. Nothing. I was 11, and I remember nothing. It kind of weirds me out to think of.

Did you get the license twice, Sail?

Yep. That was part of my ex not wanting the family to know. I think he was worried the folks wouldn't pony up the cash or something. We had a pretty cheap wedding (but nice), so I'm not sure what he was worried about. There's still parts of his mind that are totally incomprehensible to me.

Huh. That's...well. Did it ever cause any legal complications or confusions? I know a lot of people who get legally married, but it's not connected to their "wedding" at all. But not so much with the twice-legal.

Hee. You were extralegal!

Not that I know of. My ex has remarried a couple of times and it doesn't seem to have posed any problems for him.

Hee. You were extralegal!

Heh. That reminds me of my cousin whose wife is a Spanish woman who (a) does not ever plan on returning to Spain to live but (b) doesn't want to give up her citizenship. Just to make sure that there was no way they'd ever be separated by some Immigration fuckup, they got married four times: one civil and one religious ceremony in Spain, and one and one in the US. By the time they finished the US religious wedding, she was unique in bridedom in that she never, ever wanted to see her wedding dress again.

I loved the big messy Zmayhem wedding. And I miss the Zmayhem wedding cake. Specially because I found out last night that Emmett was so busy running wild with his cousins and Hec's friend Gary that he never actually got any cake, but partly just because I'm greedy and want more cake for myself.

I'm loving everyone's big wedding and wee elopement stories so much!
