Why We Can't Have Nice Th[Wedd]ings

[tablesaw]

This weekend, ojouchan and I drove up the I-5 to attend my cousin's wedding at the High Hand Nursery in Loomis, California. During the ceremony, the officiant read statements by the bride and groom, answering questions like "How did you meet for the first time?" and "What was your first kiss like?" While cute, I knew this wasn't for Ojou and my wedding when they got to the question "Where do you see the two of you in 50 years?" and in my head I answered:

Stepping out of my flying car with my new cyborg body, I extend my fifth waldo to my robomate . . .

And this is why it's very dangerous for the bride and groom to write their own ceremony. :-)

I got married when I was 37 and Georg was 46. So for us the answer to "where do we see ourselves in 50 years" is "probably dead."
