Post Wedding...
So now that I've had a day to recover from the weekend, I can post up some thoughts.
Firstly, what a great time! I am not much for the whole matrimony thing, but this was great. I wish these two geezers ;) the very best!
Although I was hot as h3ll at the ceremony, it was very nice. I think I pissed off Father Jim again when I knelt for communion, so that’s always a bonus. Bagpipes rock! That is all I have to say. We had some time between the ceremony, so what better activity than going to the bar, and watching the Cubbies pounce on Boston. After the game, I had the bag-piper guy play some pipes for us. AWSOME! The whole bar was cheering. He played a funeral song for Boston, and then a couple of other tunes… Scotland the Strongest is one of the names I think… anyway, good times.
Reception was a crazy good time. It really was a small family wedding of about 250 people. You heard me right, tons of people, but everyone felt like family… at least I felt like family. Some people that I actually got off with on the wrong foot the day, or even two before came up and we had some talks, and all was well. Barring some minor irritations from the Ex, everything worked out great. Getting a cab to leave took about 45 minutes, but otherwise a good time.
Sunday they had a brunch, which essentially turned into me hanging out and drinking all day, which again is a good thing.
All in all, I can’t wait for the pictures so I can put them up.
