We Made It

Yup, the Geezeman weddingeth. We made it through in one piece. Well, I did. I can't speak to how well Steph held up...

I was told I looked good in a tux. But they would say that, right?

Tyge was reasonably well behaved - my uncle and I declared the "jump up and ruin the dress" prop bet a push as the groom valiantly blocked the excited fellow, and it's much harder to see paw prints on a black tux than on a white gown.

As for my toast, well, first of all, I had a tough act to follow. My now-aunt is 20, quite fetching, and studies belly dancing. It's a bit nerve racking to follow that with "well that's nice, but I got jokes!" Beyond that, it seemed to go well, one of my dad's underlings employees going so far as to describe it as the best he's ever seen. Of course he said it to my dad, and not me, the miserable suck-up...

I had forgotten that was coming up. Congratulations to the Bride and Groom! And I'm glad that your own stress inducing moment went well. Although it really isn't important that the toast go well, so much as it not be a disaster that haunts all concerned for the rest of their living days.

Actually, you were quite funny. And in fact, you do look pretty good in a tux. You even did reasonably well with the belly dancing lesson. No doubt your 20 year old brainy belly-dnacing babe of an aunt has some sweet young girlfriends.
