Selfish wedding Thursday, Aug 7, 2008 1:33 pm

Tomorrow (i.e. Friday), I'm going to a wedding.  It's a morning wedding, a.k.a. an all-day wedding.  So yes, it's an all-day wedding on a Friday.  This is possibly the most selfish wedding ever.  "We're gonna need you to go ahead and take a day off work so you can watch us get married, stuff cake in each other's facial orifices, and drink lots of liquor.  Yeah, thanks."  It's one thing if you have a destination wedding and you expect people to decline the invitation because they don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a faux vacation that's centered around people other than themselves.  But it's another thing to have a local wedding and expect everyone to use up some of their precious vacation time.  Yes, I could've declined, but that would've looked selfish.  Ironic.
