Wedding Rings and other Things...

Yesterday I went to one of my best straight guy friend's wedding. For the purposes of this blog...we'll call him Luke and her Kelly. Luke and I have known each other since 6th Grade when our mother's planned the 6th grade graduation together. Even though we went to the same elementary school we didn't know each other because we were on different tracks (it was year round...and totally wierd, I was "Blue Track" he was "Red Track") Anyways, our families became besties and I've been on many a vacation with them and we usually celebrate Thanksgiving all together etc...

Luke met Kelly one year ago....and yesterday...they got married! Luke is 22 like me and Kelly is 20. I think it's really weird. Maybe it's because I still see Luke as a goofy 13 year old. The wedding was nice. Not really my style, but nice.

Here's the part that I can't get over- it's like they put rings on and everything changed. Now they are considered adults by all those around them...just because they are married. They are still going to school haven't really embarked on life yet, but they are now going to be treated differently. It's weird that two little rings can do that.

Side note- I also saw some people from High School that I haven't seen in a long time. Not really friends because we ran with different crowds...but I can already anticipate the horror of a high school reunion. Kill me now.

A day off...

Tomorrow will be my last day off for at least a month. The sad thing is, I'm not really upset about it. While I am exhausted, it keeps me busy and I really like both jobs that I'm working. I guess I've really entered Workaholic territory and I'm kind of okay with that.

On my last day off I will be going to one of my best guy friend's wedding. He is marrying a girl younger than us which is weird and makes me feel like I'm behind or something...but then I think, "Oh wait, I'm only 22 and...there is no rush". I can't imagine having the responsibility of being married right now.

In other news, I've started going to the gym! I don't think I've lost any weight but I definitely feel better. I have decided that I'm gonna try this 8 weeks to a 5k thing but I don't actually want to do a 5k, I just want to be able to do it on a treadmill. I have never been a runner so that should be interesting.

For those of you who care, I am still mystified by Purple Kelly on Survivor even though she has made it to the merge, I don't feel like she has had nearly as much screen time as anyone else.

Alright, I'm exhausted and I have a wedding to look good at tomorrow so I'm gonna get some beauty sleep. Night!
