Weddings...

Its official. I hate weddings. Both of my siblings are married. B is 29 and has been married to E for ages. They even have a kid (who is the cutest nephew in the world). J got married this summer to Hot boyfriend recently renames Hot Brother in law. And now, since I'm at least a year into college there has been this invisible cue for all of my friends to start dating eachother and then getting engaged and then "oh merciful!" get married.
Most recently, my friend Bri got engaged to my friend Thomas. Now, this story requires a bit of background information. I met Thomas at a two week camp. We became friends over a couple years of working together. My junior year of highschool I decided to ask Thomas if he wanted to come to prom with me as a friend. He said yes. So in order to allow him a more relaxed time I introduced him to a couple of my friends on msn messenger (I'm freakin addicted). Carebear and Bri took to him right away. He's a nice kid.

About a month before prom Thomas and Bri both came to me via msn and told me that they liked eachother. At first I was like, sweet, what a matchmaker I am! Then when prom came around I was more like, oh crap, now I have to deal with my prom date wanting to be all lovey dovey with my friend. Talk about an ishy prom.

Eventually it got better. After I got over the worst prom ever, I started to get used to Bri and Thomas together. In fact they were cute. Always holding hands....cute yaknow? Then this last year they got engaged.

Ok. Back to weddings. I was 12 when my brother got married. I was a gift carrier. Yes....a gift carrier... be appalled. When my sister got married this last summer I sang for the wedding. Yup, sang...again I wasn't part of the wedding party. She gave me a bunch of bs about not having room and that we weren't close....and yet my sis in law was a part of the wedding as well as my brother.

So now Bri and Thomas are getting married this summer and I am once again left out of the wonderful day. Who cares that my good friend Kris got us together, lets instant message her and tell her that we wont be able to put her in the wedding. But that we still love her.

Basicly...I'm selfish
