I loved my wedding. A beautiful church, a good ceremony, me and Danielle playing a thumb war while taking our vows, dancing up the aisle together to Rhythm of my Heart by Rod Stewart and then picking her up in my arms and carrying her out of the church. Then we had a simple reception at my parent's house where all three of us brothers made the food (we're all very good cooks) and everyone had a great time. I had about a dozen people tell me it was the most fun wedding they'd ever seen. Not an elopement but as simple and as low key as we could make it.

My mother in law was harping on about me being cheap before the wedding but the priest put a kibosh on that talk (which I'm still grateful for) because he believed that it was better to not spend money you didn't have and go into debt for a wedding when a large amount of debt would add stress to the marriage. We spent about 3000 on everything (her dress, my suit, all the food, the church, the licenses and whatnot) but ended up ahead because a lot of people were generous with their presents. Because of that we have no money stress and we should be completely out of debt by summer. To my mind that's as good a way to start a life together as there can be.

Why? Oh why ? I have to click on those links at bad moments during a coffee break at the office ?

Argh, Tom. Now some of my colleagues are looking at me in a very weird unconfortable way !

Working on it, Moyer.  Just got that silly thing last week.  Greedy little thing...

Aren't both you bitches married!?!?

I know I am, but our pal Moyer has not yet taken the plunge -- perhaps when he finds the REAL Mr. Right.
