passing time

2 quiet mornings in a row... this must be what a weekend feels like. i will brave the bitter cold here in a moment to go for a run, but for now it is so nice to just sit here, looking out my windowsill. my mind has been snagged by so many trivialities these days. with the new year brings all the new hurdles when it comes to wedding planning and it starts to consume my mind. the process is full of so much compromise - for my mom, for my grandparents, for financial reasons, for the weather, for my job - that in the end it'll be any wonder if this wedding accurately represents david & i at all. maybe that's a little dramatic. a wedding is, in the end, just a wedding. a vehicle to get david & i to the real adventure. but it is also the most money i will ever drop on a party, and i want it to be a good one. well, at least i love the dress. that's a start.
