Going to the Chapel

August 8, 2008

I shared a hotel room with my brother-in-law last night. I would say that it was one part awkward and nine parts fun. We watched the history channel, we gorged on fruit flavored Mentos, and any time I would ask him a question like, "So Dan, are you nervous?" he'd respond with an answer like, "For what?"

Well, Daniel is getting married this afternoon, and somehow the man has remained as cool as a cucumber.

I asked him again this morning, "So dude, are you nervous today?"

And he was all, "Uh yeah. I want to get down to the breakfast buffet before the french toast is all gone."

Not quite what I was referring to, but I was happy to take any sign of jitters from the kid.

Congratulations to Dan and the future Mrs. Dan! They picked a good day to get married. This is my daughter and son-in-law's anniversary. (Sarah and Jason)
I also heard there's about a million Chinese people getting married today because the number 8 is a huge sign of good luck over there.
Have fun at the wedding!

LOL...that's probably a good sign. And btw, did he get any french toast?

Congrats to Dan.

Now, there's an Olympic event! So much fun to go to a wedding. I obviously don't know your brother-in-law (and almost wrote bother-in-law!), but many congratulations to them. May they be very happy.

Fruit flavored Mentos...YUM!
