Snow and something very special

greatbearWell, just as I had promised by not seeing my shadow on my birthday, winter has been a PMSing bitch along its last six weeks of existence. Jeff got called Sunday afternoon to head down to the hotel near the hospital in preparation for the winter nastiness, and plans on being there until Tuesday afternoon along with other essential personnel keeping the patients fed and cared for. Yeah, I'm bummed some, but it did come off of a four-day weekend with lots of accomplishments and fun. We saw BOOK OF MORMON at the Hippodrome (Latin for "Horse Arena") theater in Baltimore Saturday evening, our sides are still practically sore from laughter. I had a friend come over yesterday to help me run network cabling in La Casa Mayhem, and I've been generally busy if not held back by pain trying to get on with daily life, at least my version of it. All this goodness became soaked in rain and sleet before turning into snow overnight, whereupon I woke (late) to yet another picturesque winter scene. I plan on tackling this latest mess tomorrow morning. In the meantime, By-Tor, the Snow Dog and I will have what is likely our last days of snowy fun and frolic. They love it, becoming a white cloud of snarling, yapping energy chasing about in the yard.
Now, for those who made it past the seasonal visuals, I must let it be known that Jeff and I have been very busy with some very important preparations that will culminate in an implosion of extreme fabulousness and celebration at the end of June, and I invite all who are reading this to please make yourself part of the festivities with us. Jeff and I are getting married on June 28! I know that I know many if not most of you reading only via the interwebs, but I sill consider you as family, and would love for you to attend. If you desire to be a part of the nuptials, along with with an incredible catered food extravaganza all being held here at Mayhem Acres in Maryland, drop me a PM with your address and the names of anyone else you'd like to accompany you and I will send you an invitation with additional details and RSVP card. It's gonna be a good time, guaranteed.
Yes, I've been a bit cagey with hints and details in the past, but that's my nature. I want this to be a fun event, open to all. I also have to overcome a bit of personal fears as well, and I think that has been progressing well. No fears about being wed to Jeff, mind you, that's a given and not subject to pause. No, my problem is associating it to the greater world of friends and family. As a pretty serious introvert I have some issues, but I want to cast them to the wind while having the most important day in my life, which I swore for nearly half a century that I would never get to experience for myself. So please, be a part of it. It's a huge reason to celebrate!

Dried up this afternoon for a while, but is supposed to come back though.

Date: 2014-03-04 04:39 am (UTC)Congratulations on the impending nuptials !!!! I am thrilled for you! I would so love to be able to come to Maryland to celebrate Jeff and you!! I may not know you in person, but I do know I care about you and your happiness! On July 12th, I'll be in Austin for my niece's wedding and I can't get more time away from work at that time of Summer, so though I would love to surprise, I won't be able to.
Please keeping casting off your fears. You are much loved and appreciated in this community!
HUGS!

Date: 2014-03-04 11:33 am (UTC)No offense, but I think you're nuts on BoM: we wanted to go, same hippo, but were scared off by the price of tickets. Hope you found a deal!

It was worth it. :)

Date: 2014-03-04 03:27 pm (UTC)I can only imagine how throwing a wedding and being an introvert collide in your brain. ;) My boyfriend John is a serious introvert and while we are a long ways off from marriage, I don't know how he's going to react to that problem should we reach that bridge.
You should be happy to celebrate, what a wonderful occasion to look forward to. [big hugs]
