Four-day weekend for me

I have some contract work to do, but my deadline isn't until 3:00 A.M., so I will still be able to celebrate the holiday (and it is a big day for me, since today is my 20th wedding anniversary.)

 

[Mrs AntiSocial Virge]

Just out of curiosity, WW...how did you get someone to marry you on the fourth? My mom couldn't get anyone to perform a C section on the fourth!

Mrs Virge, we had no difficulty finding a Unitarian minister who wanted to pick up a quick $100 for ten minutes of work on a holiday. My husband and I were both atheists at that time, and Unitarians are cool with that, so it worked out well. The wedding was small and informal, and was held in the living room of our home. The minister and his wife got schnockered on free champagne at the reception afterward and spent the night at my mother's house. The next morning, I doubt that the minister remembered anything about the lovely wedding; if he thinks of us at all, it is probably as the source of the worse hangover he ever had in his life!

 

[Mrs AntiSocial Virge]

That's cool...we had a woman Unitarian minister do ours because of the three judges in Franklin County that will do offsite weddings, one was in Africa that weekend and the other two were both officiating at a friends wedding. The minister was nice, but I guess all morning of the wedding day she kept referring to me as Becky (my name is Liz), so my hubby was all afraid she was gonna screw up my name during the ceremony. She didn't, and everyone was smart enough not to tell me about it till after the wedding.
