I am sorry about your weekend; I am glad you rescued
it a bit, though. The Celtic fair sounds fun.

I think [Cousin B] will come around. You two are very
close, and it seems like he does trust and admire
you. This might just be a little rebellion thing he
had to get out of his system, and things will go
back to normal in a few days. Maybe let things
cool off this week, and touch base casually on
Friday or over the weekend?

Weird dream! I can't believe you are having wedding
nightmares, too!!!!!!!!

Our weekend was pretty good. Very quiet and low
key. It was nice doing nothing for a change. :)
Unfortunately, I slept badly last night and today is
shaping up to be crazy. On top of the work stuff, I
have to go in for an eye exam today. My last pair
of contacts ripped on Friday and I need new ones in
time for our Napa trip next Saturday. The last
thing I need right now is a big expense, but it has
to be done.... and I can't go to Napa in dorky
glasses. I look like a total spack right now. :)

We watched a buncha movies - if you haven't seen it
already, get Ghost World (2001) with Scarlett
Johansson and Thora Birch. Not a happy movie, but
it has some absolutely hilarious moments, and
excellent acting from everyone.

Oh, I got the recipe thing in the mail - thank
you!!! I am going to try to come up with one for
Thanksgiving. I will let you know how it goes.

LOVE YOU!!!

I was just really...stunned...by how much [Cousin B] hurt my feelings, and
that 'channeling [brother A]' thing just...whoa.

Unfo, we have Krav Maga classes scheduled all week, so we have to
spend time whether we're mad at each other or not...really, I am not
mad, just hurt and worried. And I'm sure, intellectually, that he
struck out at me so hard because I really hurt him, too. *sigh*

Please shoot me if I ever decide to put red and blue plastic rosettes
in my hair for a wedding. SO TACKY. I am still shuddering from that
dream.

I'm glad you had a good weeknd, sounds like you needed it.

At least being crazy busy at work will help the time pass. :)

Love ya!
