I may have mentioned on occasion that even when I am away form the litnet I constantly compose and write these things, don’t often post them though obviopusly- anyway I have promised niamh I would dig this one out I think I wrote it in December January time.

I want a wedding, No seriously I need to go to a wedding I love weddings. I love watching all the strange people that crawl off the sides of the family trees and catching up on who married who and who has had children and where people are and what they are doing. Basically I tend to hang around the old women and absorb information. Last wedding I went to there was this guy who apparently never shuts up and always asks awkward questions on purpose. Well he did ask my sisters and I if we were going to marry Egyptians or Englishmen , while I was sat there going what ? and marshalling diplomatic answer my sister says Frenchmen and flounces away from the table. Shes a quick wit is that child. But anyway later on he starts going on about some I cant remember what it was a new innovation relating to something I was interested in at the time, and well you all know me , I dived into the conversation nineteen to the dozen throwing out theories and discussing different aspects of the thing and arguing the other side of it ( I think it was something to do with effective use of databases in hospital environment or some such thing) and he ended up shutting up. My cousin ( not the one who was getting married the other one) later told me that the guy lectured at the uni and was a dreadful bore and older members of the family and friends said they didn’t think anyone had ever held their own in a verbal argument with him before and he ran away because he was shocked, and usually he couldn’t be shut up about prosing on and on about the thing he knows. I was dead proud I was.

But sadly there doesn’t seem to be any weddings on the horizon chronologically Im next in line to get married and since that aint gonna happen anytime soon – and I cant seem o convince my flat mate to marry her boyfriend so I can go to the wedding ( I know how unreasonable is she? All I ask is one measly thing... ) Anyways Ive decided I am waiting for a litnet wedding. One in ever eight couples who got married in the US in 2007 met on the internet, so I think that statistically that means considering our rate of growth we are bound to have a marriage or two pop up, and I just want to say YOU HAD BETTER INVITE ME!!!! R we could have an online wedding...oh how much fun would that be? I had one planned once you know for Paya and stan and I even tracked down a joking online marriage certificate, but sadly Stan refused to shower and then there was a mutiny and teh amazons went to war with Dasterdly stan and it all went down the drain. But I bet we could have a nice online wedding. And then the kids could grow up and become second generation litnetters...oh we could call them Lit nippers .....

Yup so someone hurry up and get married because I WANT A WEDDING!!!

    Yay!! Ive always wanted a sari, and concidering I live beside 3 sari shops I should really go in and buy one, but its kind of awkard I dont know anything about them. And going in and sayong I really want a sari cause they are really really really pretty might offend someone?
    I know part of one hindi film song and I can swear in Urdu, but thats about it

    Oh I love weddings too. You get to dress up and see lots of family and one gets a little too much wine and dances (or tries to) up a storm. One in every eight Americans who get married meet on the internet? Wow, that is something. It is quite possible. Oh I would love to go to Maddie's wedding. I was telling Maddie a few weeks ago I was invited to an Indian wedding of the daughter of someone who works at my place. Unfortunately I couldn't go. Well best of luck Nightie. I hope you will be getting married soon.
