I moved the 5,000 lb desk from my apartment at 2445 Union Ave #4 to Emily's down the complex at 2451 Union #3. This change is the first sign of a quickly approaching shift in my world. For 4.5 years I lived on my own. Well mostly, I count the freshman year of college in the dorm room because a roommate differs significantly from a life partner for reasons I won't explain... well it rhymes with brgina. I feel prepared for the loss of bachelorhood. I did little with it anyways. There will be strife. More probably than when Emily and I lived in separate apartments. I have no where to be alone. So changes another aspect of life I guess.
After significantly damaging my back (I'm sure) moving the desk I celebrated by beating the third world (water world) of Super Mario Bros. III. With a Stella in one hand and a keyboard in the other it took only 45 minutes.
The countdown: 13 days.
The wedding promises to stress out all the women in my life far far more than I care to describe. Upon reflection I really have no reason to let trite details irritate me. I ought to be helpful and patient. The actually wedding-ness will last such a short amount of time then it will be over and everyone will rejoice. Upon further reflection, I talk a good game but never follow through in the moment that is most necessary. I forget too easily my resolve.
Here's a real wedding cake:
Love, sunshine, lollypops and frog suits,
