Ugh, Suzi. I hope they can work it out.

I've never regretted eloping either, Beverly. Any other option would have been too much drama.

Thanks KB and Scrappy!

They were trying to keep it small and drama free. Courthouse ceremony with just immediate family, party at a friend's house after, no more than 60 people-ish. So far it has been pretty smooth - this is the first hiccup, but dang, it is a big hiccup.

I wanted to go a courthouse. His mother threw an epic fit. It was kind of fun to walk down an "aisle" I guess, but I just wanted it legal.

Excellent name and idea for the blog, sj.

I did the wedding with walking down the aisle and the whole shebang 3 times! There was surely drama around somewhere, but I was a relaxed bride for the most part.

I'm sorry for what Kelly is going through here. If there is any way to convince all sides to start fresh and forget any he/she said stuff ever happened I would try for that. Being non-confrontational by nature I prefer clean slate to putting it all on the table.

Love the name and subject for the blog sj.

Have no advice for Kelly - I guess anytime for this sort of reconciliation is both good and also fraught with possible traps.

I have been having a blah day. Doesn't help that it was a gray overcast day with extra cold wind and some bits of precip of some sort. Overslept, left my Nook at my counselor's office, and feeling sick of everything.

I went to the doctor, and I once again have bronchitis. He gave me a bunch of prescriptions, but sent them electronically to CVS (except for the codeine cough syrup one), and the CVS pharmacy closed about ten minutes before I got there. So, I'll get the meds tomorrow.

Also, just noticed that my apartment has no hot water, so I'll have to message the landlord about that tomorrow.

Sigh. I love my friends but none of them are single anymore. Which means I end up at my friend's birthday dinner/hangout as five couples and me. Which is depressing.

I dreamt I was at a big Buffista gathering last night. I was do disappointed when I woke up.

I dreamt I was at a big Buffista gathering last night.

I used to have social gathering dreams quite often. Sometimes random assortments of people I knew, strangers, and public figures. My dear woo~woo friend told me that some subconscious part of me really was socializing, as were the dream parts of the other attendees. Just taking a break and partying while dreaming, together. I liked that notion. I'm a pretty strong agnostic when it comes to such things, but I put it in the category of just fine with me if true.

I don't remember my dreams as often anymore, but early this morning I was in a high school situation, as a teacher or administrator. It was a series of frustrations. Didn't like it.

That could be it, Laura. I had to cancel my plans yesterday because my pain, exhaustion, and social anxiety made it impossible to make the trek to RI, but I'm still lonely and need to socialize more.
