sometimes
2004-11-07 toast

i just got back from a wedding dinner
it has been a jam packed weekend so far
i haven't turned on the television once
and i haven't had much time alone aside from sleeping and grading papers today
but i am enjoying all the hoopla
i gave a toast to devorah, i was the only one on her friends side of things to say something, and i know i did her justice
she gave a speech too honoring the bridesmaids, and even though i'm not walking, she mentioned me first
i thought that was something
we do have quite a history together
sometimes it takes events like this to remember how great it is to have friends that stick around for a while
i know i'm going to cry tomorrow, i cried a little tonight when the groom choked up talking about his father
some of the youngsters were giving him a hard time for his laugh, but i think it's endearing
the couple to be really are lucky, i want to say blessed, but i'm not sure what i mean by that
i felt bad for rox because she wanted to say something but didn't really have the words, i felt good that i did

back & forth
