“Convivio”

his week has been a bit rough. While I’d heard from numbers of people about how stressful planning a wedding is, I had no idea. Things were hectic sure, but it was under control until the shit really hit the fan last week. In a nutshell, my grandma’s television set fell on her (I am not making this up) fracturing vertebrae in her neck and her spine, which at 93, is not ideal. Couple endless hours at the hospital with regular old “issues” like my tailor (Wilfred Tailors on 23rd Street to be exact) “forgetting” to hem my wedding dress and “making a mistake” with the slip he was supposed to sew in it (to avoid flashing my friends and family) I was ready to self-destruct. Poor Craig. He’s been holding me together. The man should get a medal. Instead he’s just getting me, forever. Oh, dear.  

Anyway, the good news is that Grandma is holding it together (she’ll be at the wedding come hell or high water, as she says), and I found another tailor who got the dress right. (Wilfred ripped me off and good.) And who knows, if things go as planned, by the time you read this on Monday August 18th, I’ll be married. Julie and Kathy will be at the wedding, too, celebrating and eating with gusto. As it should be.
