I'M BACK AND MARRIED!

Hey ya'll, I'm back and in the flesh. Only one or two people care enough so I'm talking to them; so hey Avin and The Make Up Girl! Missed you while I was gone.

I read Avin's blog and I refuse to cry *cues Mary J. Blige* but it was so touching and moving. My wedding was a dream, more than I ever imagined. If it wasn't for my coordinator/co-worker I don't know if it would have turned out so beautiful.

Everything seemed to be aligned, from the beautiful weather to the kids behaving; I had the most perfect day imaginable. I hear that rain is a sign of good luck on a wedding day. . .good luck for who? Not after I spent all night getting my hair done! So, I was grateful that the weather was so gorgeous.

I was in the limo watching all the guests come in and then decided to occupy myself by listening to my matron of honor's ipod/phone thingy and all she had on it was some stupid New Edition and Get Me Bodied. So, I spent my final alone time as a single woman doing the Naomi Campbell walk in the limo.

I damn near had a panic attack when my coordinator opened the door of the limo to get me out; it was time to get married. She said, "If you want, we can dip out in the limo and go get drinks. You ready now?" So after a nod, we walked up the steps to the chapel and there I was; my oldest son on my left ready to walk me down to my dad who took me the rest of the way.

I don't remember seeing Avin and the girls crying like they were watching the end of Steel Magnolias; shoot they were crying at the damn wedding rehearsal. The whole ceremony was so nice and touching; so romantic and all that good stuff.

Mr. D said vows to my boys while he gave them necklaces and apparently everyone just fell out crying. Why didn't I cry you ask?!? (1) The Make Up girl would have stopped the ceremony to fix my make up (2) It wasn't needed everyone else was crying like they were at Luther's funeral!

The reception was so wonderful and I just hope everyone had a good time. I danced myself into a leg cramp that lasted for two days. I dropped it, brought it back up and dipped it some more. I got my eagle on, dropped it like it was hot. . .hazy hot and humid more like it!

We were so tired, we didn't consummate anything but some sleep! We had a nice room at the Marriott in downtown DC, but all I wanted to do was scrub my face and go to sleep!

I had a blast at my wedding, none of the children there cried, no one got loud or anything embarrassing. I did have someone act like a pure dee bitch. I'll be blogging about that in a few.

With that aside. . .it was the best wedding I've ever been to, even it was my own!
