Like -t I am going to focus on the congrats part!
Also, poor extremities! I am wearing thick socks and cushy crocs today because of being stupid about walking on tile floors barefoot. My feet starting yelling loudly this morning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Marriage is fun regardless! I mean the act, not necessarily the living.....
I have never been so mad that the temperature went above freezing! A good chunk of my sidewalk that was packed snow is now slippery ice. I just spent a a half hour whacking at it, but that was all I could take. More later, I guess. And sand. We need lots of sand.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I am happy for the legal recognition of your horses! To mangle the metaphor.

The wedding part will be not 100% fun -- it's a courthouse thingy, not a big shindig. We are too old for big shindig and it's too expensive.. We are having people over the next day for Mardi Gras, though.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Yeah, Kat, hooray on getting legalled! Also Mardi Gras is a fun way to celebrate, so it sounds pretty good to me.

Congrats, Kat!

Thanks. In classic kid response, G said, "What's married?" and N said, "You are already married! t insert outraged voice You can't raise babies and NOT be married."

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
edit to fix internal double post. I don't know how I managed that one.
Blah, Kat. That sounds awful. Plantar fasciitis and ITB at the same time sounds like a pain sundae with a dollop of shooting agony on top. As for the work stuff, I understand why you feel bad but the error sounds out of your control.
We also have community credit unions here. I belong to one that used to be only for employees of a local shipyard, though I'm changing soon to one that allows deposit via photo (my current one doesn't even have deposit via ATM, so I have to actually GO INTO THE BANK WHILE IT IS OPEN, which is a giant PITA).
Another busy day of errands and parade prep, and then PARADES! Tonight is Krewe de Vieux, which is lewd and political (frequently simultaneously; if you've seen s1 Treme, where John Goodman and Melissa Leo and their daughter march as sperm next to a float of a naked, reclining Ray Nagin engaged in onanism? Whether or not that really happened, it gives an accurate flavor, so to speak, of KdV) (I seriously just spent about 20 minutes in internet research trying to confirm that it did, including reading a grad student paper from Brazil which turned out to be about KdV 2005) (I can confirm that the Krewe of Spermes theme in 2006 was "Spermes Declares A Mandatory Ejaculation: Cuntra Flow in Effect")(maybe -t knows?).
