Well, the big day has come and gone but will NEVER EVER be forgotten! It didnt exactly go as planned. It rained, and for an outdoor wedding and reception, you'd think that would be a disaster. And honestly, it was for a short while. It broke my heart to see Karin so beautiful and so sad on what was the best day of her life. Inside, I was a complete wreck! I tried very hard to stay strong for Karin and reassure her that it will still be okay all will be beautiful and she will still marry Brad which was the most important thing that day.
Well the cerimony ended up being in her parents family room with about 110 people crammed in the kitchen and around the family room. Instead of Karin walking down to Brad on yellow rose petals in her front yard, she walked, crying her happy tears through her kitchen! Definately, a day to remember! I cried through the entire cerimony!
The rain lightened up enough for everyone to sit down and enjoy Kinders BBQ! YUM! YUM! YUM! Even though it began to sprinkle rain a little, people just popped up their unbrellas and kept on eating! Then came time for my toast! OOOH! My voice cracked and I got choaked up, but managed to keep it together long enough spit something out that Im sure was pretty good!
I ended up having my cry for my best friend and her new husband the next day on the way to the Oakland airport for the second time that day to pick up my parents. Yes, I am a TOTAL cheese ball! It definately was a day I will never forget! Watching Karin dance with her daddy to What a Wonderful World in the rain! Makes me cry just typing it! Watching her in her first dance with her husband in the rain! It was really romantic! And the fact that nobody left and everyone started dancing in the rain! WOW!
Karin & Brad, may life always smile on you both! May you never go to bed angry or holding a grudge, ALWAYS talk, ALWAYS put one another and your marriage above anything else, dont loose the romance (no matter how badly it makes Mel wanna puke), keep honesty and truth in the front, and Brad remember, Karin is always right! I love you guys with all that I am!

NOT my day today
So, I ordered this cool gift for my Best Friend for her wedding. Paid EXTRA for 2nd day air, and whaddya know, its not here. UPS says they delivered it, but low and behold, its not here and I have to wait to talk to the merchant to find out what happened. What is the fuckin point of having a tracking number if when you give it to UPS, they just tell you to contact the merchant. Ok if your telling me you delivered it, and I dont have it, and the merchant sent it, wouldnt it then be UPS's problem for loosing the fuckin thing!
And yet again, my niece is lying to everyone. She "borrowed" her grandpas car. You see the problem is Grandpa doesnt let her use it unless it is an absolute emergency and she knows that, the other problem is, Grandpa is not here for her to ask. He is is South Carolina on vacation. So she takes his car then tells me that she will bring it back that night. Fine, Im pissed but shes bringing it back. Later that night around 9pm, shes still not here with the car. I have to be at work at 5am the next day and I NEED to get to bed. I call her and she says at first that she is in night school and will bring it after shes done. 1030pm and she is still not here, and no call. So, I call her again. She tells me that her Mom wont let her leave the house because she thinks shes gonna take the car out so she "has to keep it" I KNOW she lying but by this time it is after 11 and I have to drag my tired ass out of bed for work in 4 fuckin hours. I am REALLY pissed at this point but manage to sound very calm on the phone. Day 2 of the car heist, I call her at around 745am before school, on my way to a dentist appointment. I tell her to have the car back at the house this afternoon no acceptions and fill it with gas. I know she has found my secret stash of money and has helped herself because I was gonna dip into it and it was gone. She tells me oh Mom gave me a gas card I can fill it no problem. Great, Im thinking. I have work today, wedding stuff, and the car will be safe and sound back at home. Kayla has managed to piss off a few people in her time at high school (havent we all) and I get nervous about her having it at school. Teens these days have zero respect for personal property, especially really nice expensive Suburbans. I get home from my day around 700pm, no fuckin Suburban!
I have zero trust in Kayla now, and that is the saddest part about this story. Yes I am UNBELIEVABLY PISSED at her and she will definately get a talking to from Grandma and Grandpa not that she will listen. She seems to have no reguard for anyone except herself. Does what she wants when she wants and to hell with anyone else. On the same note though, she writes in school papers that her family doesnt trust her or believe in her and shes doing things just to prove us wrong. Well my dear when your pattern is lying, stealing & sneaking around that sort of breaks any trust you have built. When you go from a near 4.0 GPA in junior high, to nearly flunking out in high school and cutting just about every class, yeah out faith in you is pretty shaken. When we give you opportunity after opportunity to prove that your worthy of being trusted you do things like through a party while your mom is gone with boose, boys and all the trimmings, and I fuckin covered for you! What am I suppose to do? I love you in spite of your idot acts, but I do not trust you as far as I can throw you.

FINALLY SUN!!!!!
Im so happy to see sunlight!! That means that the ground will start to dry up so Karins wedding wont be on gushy ground and none of the ladies wearing heals will sink! Vegas wasa blast! It was so good to spend some quality girl time with just Karin, myself, and Mel. I learned that I like dueling piano bars and that I still cant dance. So if your wondering if when you get older you may pick up some dancing vibes along the aging path of life, your wrong! Your either born with dancing abilities, or your not. I am not! Its okay though, I shake it every once in a while when I just cant help it!
