"my soul..."

I was at a wedding today. I am really glad that my one day’s impression of the groom is that I really like him. Because I really love her; I’m counting on coming to love him too.

It’s going to be a really tricksty matter when I have my own wedding one day.. If I’m going to cry so much at someone else’s wedding, I’m not sure how I’ll deal with my own. And it’s really funny and bad because I cry, and that makes the bride cry, and that’s not helpful at all. Maybe hopefully my friends and family will just know me and not mind the tears and the running makeup (I’ll test the claim of “waterproof”!), and just know the tears are because I mean it and I feel it and they’ll forgive me at my own wedding..
Also, I managed to totally forget/not expect my own tears today.. so there was an awesome moment when we first entered the building and I realized I was about to see her get married…. and my brain exclaimed, “crap! this is the type of thing that tears are made of! I’m so going to cry!” and I hustled to look for tissues.

It was a wonderful wedding and surely a great union. And it’s still CNY so auspiciousness there as well. I’m really, really happy for them both, and for their newly joined families and plans ahead.

A little dragon had a birthday today.

Happy year of the rat. And apparently same word for mouse, so it will be a particularly good year for Disney/Mickey. The nonstop Tom and Jerry cartoons (in celebration of the Year of the Rat/“Kat”), however, must stop. Please. Quoth the little dragon, “pleeeeeeeeeeassse?”

Still missing a goat. Have til 2015, guys/girls.
