    And I said yes!

    Addie proposed to me in a most unusual way.


    She told me she was drawing the wedding gowns of all her friends so I said I wanted in. And then I realized that I have never in my life imagined what my wedding dress would look like. I've always jumped ahead to what things would be like afterwards--I wrote an essay long ago that outlined how I met my husband, what his name was, and what problems we faced (it got me sent to my high school psychologist, though we were good friends and he wasn't surprised to see me), and I've had my top three children's names for both genders picked out since at least tenth grade (although now that I think of it, I have not updated that list in a while, and some of the names have fallen out of favor). I've just never thought about the day itself. All of my friends have apparently been piecing together magazine clippings since the beginning of time, so I don't know where I missed that boat. At any rate, thanks and good job to Addie.

    By the way, that's my three-year-old daughter who I had out of wedlock. I'm telling her to talk to the hand and get out of my shot because this is my big day and she better not fuck it up or I'll knock her block off with my broomstick.

    Anyone need a babysitter?
