D.C. and Back Again: A Wedding Tale
Someone please tell me that living with someone gets easier. I don't want to fight with my true love anymore; I want all of our issues to be resolved so that we can just get on with life. I am very glad I didn't know until today how our finances were looking because it allowed me to enjoy Lucy's wedding weekend in D.C. without guilt. It was a beautiful wedding and a wonderful time.

( Lucy's wedding in D.C. )

By the time I got home yesterday, I was so tired that I didn't know if I could make it through the Rush concert (the kick-off event of

droid18's birthday week), and, to be honest, I really didn't. My bellybutton wound started hurting (I think it was irritated by sweat; we had uncovered seats at Lakewood), and I had to sit down, and I pretty much slept through most of the second half of the concert. It wasn't bad for me, but I wished I hadn't gone for

droid18's sake. I wanted him to be able to enjoy the concert, not turn around every ten minutes to ask me if I was OK. His brother, Keith, was the brains behind the plan, and their friends Russ and Kevin also came with us, so it's not as though I'd have been missed if I hadn't gone. In retrospect, I should have stayed home, but oh well. Hindsight is 20/20. I did want to see Rush in concert, and I'm glad I did. They put on a good show. However, it was so similar to the Rush In Rio DVD that I kind of felt like I'd already seen it. There were some new videos, though, and they played some songs I hadn't heard. I was surprised also at how many Rush songs I do know. All in all, it was a good time; if only I could have stayed awake for it.

So,

droid18's birthday is Wednesday (I told him to take the day off from work but didn't tell him why - hee-hee! He tried to guess last night what we'd be doing, but he didn't even get close), and then Friday I leave again for Martha's Vineyard and the last wedding of the summer.

Life is crazy, but it's also wonderful to be able to spend time celebrating the people I love. What else is life for?
