voglio di dance all night and ballero
Okay, so when I said the Ferragamos made me Florentine, I was wrong. I am now fully Italian due to the purchase of... white. linen. pants. E-mail me (link to the upper right) for a picture of the current, Italianized me.
In a week and a half I'll join my brothers to celebrate another wedding, although by no means any less meaningful than the two that have come before or the two that will come next year. I think about these things and I realize that by this time next year (or so), 5 of 8 will be permanently attached. Married. Matrimony. For these guys, singular pronouns no longer exist. Everything is "we."
Now, this is by no means bad. I envy them in some ways, being able to be at that point now, secure and ready and realized. It's just hard to grasp, still. It's a huge thing, really. Crazy. I'm happy for them, the already married, the soon-to-be, the in-the-planning-stages-and-realizing-just-how-much-it-is-going-to-cost-and-cringing.
And I relish the thought that they will all be at my wedding as well, someday, if ever there is one.
P.S. - It's always an odd feeling that comes when you look at recent search strings from Google that led people to your website...and see that someone searched your full (first and last) name and the name of your alma mater. If you're reading this, e-mail me and let me know who you are.
