The lovely Mrs ERJ and I went to a wedding yesterday.
It was not my favorite activity.
Too much loud noise. Too many bright, blinking lights. Too many people and too much chaos.
And that was just on the drive to the venue. There was a very large emergency-response on the corner of Canal Road and Windsor Highway on our way in.
The rest of the evening was a string of pearls: Short interludes of relative peace-and-quiet interspersed with noise, blinking lights and chaos. No gunshots were exchanged, so the event had that going for it.
A big tip-of-the-hat to Mrs ERJ. She had a pair of hearing protection in her purse that she let me use. Bless you, dear. Bless you!
The Groom's Party looked like they could have been cast members of the show Peaky Blinders. They had a definite "vibe".
I am very, very happy that young people have the desire and means to get married.
One of my oldest's friends just got married (21 yrs)... civic event at a party-house, catered by the chinese take out place! Shoestring budget, but they're in love, found a priest, and got married. God bless 'em.
