a wedding and a birthday

Seraph's wedding was wonderful. Now, you know me... I love weddings a lot but this one was just lovely. The bride radiant in her simple white dress, groom nervous and happy....it was in the begonia house so the lovely surroundings added to it all and the weather came through in the end with some rays of sunshine.

They wrote their own vows and that's what made me cry. I guess it's something about hearing people speak from the heart. You don't get that very much, especially public declarations of love. So I went sob sob sob and tried to get a tissue out of my bag with minimum fuss and noise.

The reception was great fun too. I met some lovely people, and our odds-and-ends table eight had a great time over the delicious dinner. Say it with me "You can't go wrong with thai fish cakes!"

I wore my long purple Annah S skirt with the black ruffles and the flamenco longness on one side and my old Glassons blue mesh long sleeve top with black butterfly on the front. I did my hair in three funny buns, two on top and one in back for all the short bits. It looked pretty messy but OK. I also wore my pink tights with black fuzzy fishnet pattern and my flat black mary-janes so I was warm and comfortable all night. Go me!


I forgot my blog birthday. I was reminded about it by Chinashop and I realised that mine is past. I started blogging on the 4th of September last year. I have been blogging for more than a year and now I have the livejournal as well.

So. Thanks to y'all for reading what I have to say here, it's nice to know that people think I'm interesting.

Thanks to y'all who comment on what I have to say. I love to have feedback and discussions and rebuttal. I do not write into a void. Hooray!

...and thanks to y'all who lurk and don't make yourselves known. I know you're there 'cause my user stats say you're there. Thanks for lurking!

No thanks at all to the evil spammers. You suck.

Happy belated birthday Talula.
