Feb. 15th, 2007 02:21 pmI had a dream last night that I went down to campus early early in the morning to see Keith and Hana. I think I miss school. It was absolutely brutally cold when I woke up. After my shower there was steam on the glass doors to the patio. It continues to be painfully cold, albeit sunny.
Tonight is 80's night! In preparation I bought the most virulent, metallic green eyeshadow I have ever seen, and sparkly green liquid eyeliner. I kid you not. It is unbelievably awesome. I'm not interested in regular makeup, or subdued, natural colors. If I'm wearing cosmetics, they have to be over the top. I was also going to wear my cool 80's shirt with the rhinestone band and off the shoulder sleeve but I couldn't find it this morning. Alas. I had to settle for some other things. It's too damn cold for my short denim jacket, but my black one has furry trim so that should be alright. The Russian hat counts as 80's Cold War kitsch, right? Can you tell I'm excited!
Jim wrote an email today:
The wedding is being moved up a little. Well, its being moved up a whole lot. March 17th.
Why?.. some may ask. What could possibly be a good enough reason to inconvenience our friends and family to have our wedding so soon? Maybe because some eccentric billionaire uncle promised us his inheritance if we get married in the next month. Maybe we found out elisa is actually not a citizen and will get deported if we don't get hitched soon. Maybe we entered a bizarre reality show to see what happens when people have to plan a wedding in a hurry. OR maybe, just maybe its what you're all guessing...
We're pregnant. Rather, Elisa is pregnant, I'm just a nervous wreck. We think its about 4-6 weeks now, so that makes it a Sept/October birth. Elisa is doing well, as well as a pregnant lady can be. The families are all very happy. So aside from the whole bastard child thing, everything is good. So to remedy the final issue, we're having the wedding in California at Elisa's aunt's house on March 17th. Plans may change, we're just crazy like that. But for now that's what we're sticking too. You are all invited but no pressure to show up, we understand. Its going to be a small ceremony, with plenty of good peruvian food. If you want to come, let me know ASAP and I'll get you the info. If you can't, not to worry, we're still planning to get to texas over christmas some time. Just like we had originally planned only WITH A BABY.
hope to hear from you all,
daddy jim
Oh how this makes me miss them. I can just hear the tone of voice he would use to say this, and how he would laugh when we protest calling the baby a bastard already. I can't believe Elisa and Jim are going to have a baby. Wow. Of all the people I know, I think they are the best choice to be parents. Somehow, I want to find a way to get out to California for the wedding next month. Eeeeeee. I squeaked a little, but quietly at my desk and have been smiling ever since.
Of course, to make up for joy I had to have an insane, hysterical caller. Sheesh. That took me an HOUR to sort out with the assistance of a supervisor. I look forward to seeing the whole ridiculous thing splashed out on the Fox News affiliate in their town though.
