Turning a new page

It's almost time for taking a long break... sorry my blog readers.  I fly out Thursday to prepare for the Sunday wedding between Skyprincess and myself.

Who knew it would take this long?  I certainly didn't.  I know we had a lot of planning to accomplished, but it just seemed like it took forever to get to this weekend.  I should be extremely nervous , but I'm not.  I'm odd like that.  The big stuff normally never bothers me, or even the little stuff, when I think about it.  Take selling my house.  When the agent called two weeks ago with the "offer" she was excited.  My tone sounded like I was agreeing to an appointment at Jiffy Lube for an oil change.  Monotoned and emotionless.

I'm not saying I'm not excited.  I'm just saying I'm not nervous.  I'm not having second thoughts or thinking of turning rabbit.  I'm just ready to have it over with so we can start our lives.  What I am looking forward to is the honeymoon in China.  So much so I am sure I will be disappointed.  That's one of the reasons I never try to build up too much expectation.  I am always disappointed in the end.

This has been a busy month for us.  Skyprincess's birthday was the 7th, mine is today, and the wedding this Sunday.  I'm not sure what Skyprincess is doing for my birthday, but she took my car this morning.  Some story about the Volvo dealership sending a notice it needs some service.  I think she got tired of seeing it so dirty and had it detailed.  We can't hide anything from each other.  She always knows what I'm up to, and I know the same.  The difference is that I never tell her I know it and act surprised.  Its much more fun that way.  Plus, I like her little surprises. If I let on I know about them, she might not go through with it!  How sad is that??

Since Hippolyte backed out of my wedding party, my side will be one short.  3 on Skyprincess's side and 2 on my side.  Now there is a chance I'll lose another due to the hurricane.  David is flying out on Orlando on Thursday about 8am.  Just when the hurricane should be over Orlando.  If he can't make it, we've talked about moving one of her people over to my party.  That should even things out.

So goodbye for now everyone.  I shall post again in a month!

WOW!!! So exciting! Happy Birthday and good luck with the wedding. I hope you have a great time in China! It really is an AWESOME place to visit. Buy lots of cool cheap stuff.

It's really quite affordable to have things tailored for you. Get some cool Chinese clothes and paintings. If you're ever buying anything on the street never pay full price they're asking. They start almost twice as high for foreigners.

YAY YAY! How very fun.

And on a side note, I personally will miss reading your blog. A whole month! Gah!

I'm glad you enjoy my posts. I've been a bit bummed by the quality lately. Too many political posts and not much personal. I hope to change that when I get back.

I really enjoy your blog and also Helen's. She has this free form style of writing that I really wished I had. (sigh)
