My cousin got married this weekend, which was a bizarre experience. Brian is my age, and has always been my age (Nate and Rebekah are my age, but I've known them for four years, whereas I've known Brian my whole life). The day of the wedding was interesting, cause the wedding was late enough that there was a significant portion of time where no one knew what to do with themselves, so all the grown up women were cooking for the brunch the next day, and the uncles were given the task of helping buy beer. But we were still kids enough that they sort of looked at us, and handed us passes to the science museum, and told us to go watch the iMax show, and be sure to be back in time to get to the wedding. (Jamie helped one of the best men shop for random stuff, including the stuff do to up the car; it was Connor and I and the other best man's girlfriend who went out.) The wedding was lovely and sweet, and I liked the homily even. My aunt Candace made it clear to the entire room that she is not Catholic anymore when we were saying the Lord's Prayer as while saying "debts" in a room full of a hundred some people saying "tresspasses" won't be heard, continuing on with "for thine is the kingdom" very loudly in a room of Catholics who shut up to listen to the priest talk is heard. They were all lovely up there at the altar, and she got all totally choked up, so choked up she couldn't talk when it came to her saying her vows, and everyone in the church was like "awww..."

I don't think Brian's blanket is going to be done by this weekend. I seem to have forgotten that this is slightly harder to knit for whatever reason. I can take it to school with me tomorrow, though, and walk around with the ball of yarn in my pocket, and knit that way. I really enjoy knitting with yarn that's in my pocket.
