Personal: The Wedding is even Closereth

Only three days left! I'm not anxious or nervous, just ready. :)

I don't expect to be online at all during the honeymoon (duh) so this is going to be the penultimate post of mine before the wedding. The last post until I get back will be a review of Champions of Faith, the DVD about Catholic professional baseball players.

Thanks for your prayers and comments. God, in His providence, supplied New Jersey with plenty of rain last night and today so that we won't need rain on Saturday. He also deemed it appropriate to give me a head cold Monday night, which will certainly have run its course by Friday, leaving me healthy and fresh for the wedding and the honeymoon.

Personal: The Wedding Approacheth

In only 10 short days (well, long days, since it's almost Summer), Kristin and I will finally be married. It's been 7.5 years in the making... in fact, tomorrow is our 7th year and 6th month anniversary since our first date. Do the math, we started dating on January 14th, 2000. It made Valentine's Day our first month anniversary, so I'll never forget the day.

We're getting married in the parish I grew up in, having the reception at the banquet hall all my married siblings used, and then bookin' it to Hawaii the next day.

Tonight we have a dance lesson, so she can learn the Waltz and I can brush up on it. Maybe we'll have another lesson on Friday. Saturday is her bachelorette party, which as far as she can tell, is going to include a scavenger hunt and a trip to NYC for some clubbing. Monday night is my bachelor party, which is pretty much set in stone: dinner at a restaurant I suggested, and then a couple rounds of beers at a bar I suggested.

Monday night I'll need to show my Best Man where he can live for the week. Then the Thursday of that week is my first Parish Pastoral Council meeting. I'm picking up the tuxes before that, and going up to my hometown afterwards.

Sigh. And somewhere in there I need to re-do the wedding programs and print them out.

Prayers wanted. Inquire within.
