Wedding Weekend #2
Wednesday: Dinner with Michelle. Probably the last for a while. She's still serious about present boyfriend, so things ain't gonna work out between the two of us, and I need some time to collect myself before we could hang out in a different context.
Thursday-Friday: Trip for Dan's wedding. Travel went relatively smoothly. The rehearsal dinner (at a manor house turned function hall) was amazing. The ceremony itself was beautiful (I got to hold the chuppah for Dan) and somewhat complex (to mostly paraphrase Markos: two Buddhists (well, one Tibetan Buddhist, one atheist-turned-something-or-other), the children of Jews and Presbyterians, respectively, married in a Jewish ceremony in a Quaker meeting house, one of the groomsmen wore a dress and two of the bridesmaids wore tuxes,* there was no air conditioning). Also, Dan is now married?! Seriously, couldn't be prouder of the guy, he found a great match.
Saturday: Errands, house showings, hanging out with Ames (went to see The Girl Who Played with Fire, followed by dinner, followed by ice-cream, followed by hanging out at the house of yet another friend, picking up more and more of Ames's social circle as we went along). Heat wave continues.
Today:Brunch with ODan (Boston Dan aka ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
octopusdan, to distinguish from krint01 above) and EHawk, if all goes according to plan. (Original plans canceled.) Intermittent power. (Rolling blackouts?) Heat wave etc.
* And were probably the most handsome ones there, though everyone in a tux (self included) was exceptionally handsome. Seriously, those hats!
