Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

They are high school or college friends where either I don't keep in touch with mutual friends, or any mutual friend will actually be in the bridal party. I am never in the bridal party.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Pretty funny... I think Lex Luthor is my fave....

For an afternoon snack, I am having blueberry yogurt with Grape Nuts. Totally virtuous, right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I swear when in Texas that we got some invitations to JUST the wedding - like big church wedding, much smaller reception - common?

My mother wants me to tell you that a church wedding is actually public, so anyone could just go anyway. Both of my parents would like to remind Susan's friend that the wedding is a covenant between the couple and the community, and it is theologically wrong to have a private wedding. If they are Christians, at least.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

And since you've invited me you presumably want me there (generic me), which is unlikely to happen if I'm going to be sitting at a table twiddling my thumbs and trying not to feel like a giant loser. IJS.

Unless you are the girl that was mean to me in high school and then I totally want you there sitting at a table alone and miserable watching me in all my glory.

OMG that little revenge daydream felt good.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Well, that would be totally different, naturally.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Jesse's mom is funny, but should I ever have a wedding, it will be a civic affair, and anything that happens at a church will still be a private ceremony because 1) I don't much like the larger community in any sense. 2) Unless I have had some massive change, I will want to control the event within an inch of its life.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Well, I'm not sure our friends' wedding is so much private private as it's over on the Olympic Peninsula (family connection and/or they go hiking there a lot), but most of their friends are here in Seattle.

On the running mates thing, I laughed hardest at the kitty and the entire state of Ohio.

Oh, some Freeper said that all the GOP needed to do to win the general was show a picture of Obama with a turban on his head next to McCain in naval uniform. Only they spelled it "turbine," which led to the following post at dKos: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

All of this came up when some friends of mine had a wedding with just their families in one place, and then a reception somewhere else later. I got the whole lecture.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Bwahaha!

Also, I would totally vote for an Obama/Optimus Prime ticket.
