truly, madly, deeply.

Feeling pretty productive today. I’m fighting off yet another cold/flu virus and I’m pretty sure the over-consumption of Emergen-C is giving me an energy buzz. I’m not complaining … in fact I’m beginning to think should take this stuff more often. 

Derek and i have a wedding location – finally. Keweenaw Mountain Lodge it is. We snagged the last date available for summer 2010, a God-given miracle for sure. Everything is now starting to get moving again and essentially falling into place pretty easy. Of course things are bound to go wrong eventually, but for now its cake and I’m enjoying every last morsel. My florist was even impressed with how far along everything is coming and the fact I’ve already thought about things that have yet to be covered. I’ve discovered something about this whole wedding putting together business… if you want it to be simple, it will be. I’ve been getting “advice” from plenty of people that like to over-complicate things… its been a very necessary life-decision to tune them out. 

I’ve also made a discovery about myself during this wedding process. I am incredibly indecisive. Ok, I didn’t need the wedding planning to help me figure that one out. It’s just so many things i can’t make decisions about … for example, grad school or not? MN or MI or CA or WI or New Zealand for that matter? tattoo or no tattoo, another piercing or not? Pursue writing more or let it rest? Spend a year in Vietnam, take a co-op? Quit bartending or not? My head spins, constantly. I can make millions of decisions daily as long as they don’t directly effect my life. Nonsense.

What’s worse it that I’m getting to that age again … the age where friends are graduating, getting married, moving, etc. Matt and Ang are moving to Virginia after my wedding … Joel is contemplating uprooting to Colorado. My local friends … God only knows where they will all end up … spaced out with far gaps between I’m sure. That makes me sad … its like high school graduation all over again.
