Wedding-lag


Posted July 11, 2007 by Nick Tankersley Comment on this article Leave a comment

OK, so I’ll admit I’m a slacker blogger. I haven’t blogged in far too long, it seems.
First there was the Fourth of July, which ended up being a rain-less day … talk about miracles.
Then there was July 7, 2007 — the luckiest day of the year or millennium or whatever it was dubbed.
I am thinking that churches everywhere were inundated with requests for their chapels and sanctuaries. My own church had one wedding and two wedding vow renewal ceremonies.
I attended two of the three and I think I’m suffering from wedding-lag. You know, it’s sort of like jet lag without the jet.
One event was Saturday afternoon and the other was Sunday afternoon. by Monday I felt that a freight train had hit me.
I was able to peck out my friends’ numbers on my cell phone — barely — to find out how they were holding up. They also were tired. Some had gone to the ceremony rehearsals as well so I couldn’t complain to much.
Even so, it feels good to look back on such joyous occasions. Weddings are so beautiful and everyone is typically in a good mood.
It was great to be a part of something so special.
