part of my weekend

Cyn and I went to Bill and Linda's wedding on friday. It was a nice ceremony at the courthouse. Except for me (the best man) (and Cyn), and the maid of honor, it was just close family. Afterward we went to dinner. The food was extremely slow in coming. I was sure we were going to be late to our concert, but incredibly, we made it on time. The show was great. Arlo Guthrie is funny.

I felt strange at the wedding and dinner. I felt a little disconnected. I felt like I was supposed to be loving and supportive and everything, but it just wasn't coming. And that any of these positive emotions that I did feel weren't showing.

I'm not sure how much of it was just me having an off day and how much of it was some kind of emotional response. Bill and Linda have been living together for a while, and recently moved into a house they had bought, and will be having a baby in a couple of months. They have both been married before. So maybe it didn't feel... I don't know. The people there weren't my (or their) friends. It was all family. I knew most of the people, but it seemed more like a gathering of people who were there because they were supposed to be there, not because they wanted to be. That's not quite fair. I'm sure everyone did want to be there (although I'm not sure of Linda's relationship with her parents).

I don't know. Maybe it was just me.

Morning. I imagine your gut feelings were correct. I am so glad you and Cyn got to the concert in time and it sounded like you had a great time. I could even picture sitting there listening as Cyn described in her journal. Enjoy your Sunday.
