Something got me thinking...another thread, as a matter of fact. The thread about Marriage Proposals.
We need a thread about the "Marriage Day".
The day you got married, or how you would want such a day to go.
If your day went worse than mine, or goes worse then mine, you have no idea how much I am sorry for your day!
My day:
It was late in the week, Friday to be exact, and I was working. I was due to go overseas for a tour not too far from this day. Having found out that even with the time constraint that I would not be able to take a day off for this. So, it was decided that I would have to go and get married during my lunch break. This decision did not sit well with some that were a little above my position, they decided and threatened that if I did not make it back in time that I would be in for hell. I would have extra-duty and well hell to pay for it.
So, in my pretty green BDUs, I hobbled into a car with Jacob and a friend who was taking us to the Justic of Peace. Jacob was also sick this day, he had (shhhh I never said this) tp stuffed up his nose, it was that bad!
We get there, oh I failed to mention that I was on crutches at the time as well. So he was sick, and I was broken. The elderly ladies found this all to be quite amusing. Payed for everything, finally went to do it, sat my crutches aside, I wasn't about to not be able to stand there on my own!
We end up having to rush back to work, literally. Got there, of course, late. I get yelled at for the timing, just to find myself face-to-face with someone who was definitely superior to my rank. Turns out that, I never had to rush. I never had to worry about it at all. That the SOBs were wrong and I could have easily have taken a day if they would have talked to him about it.
Turns out that they found this all to be very amusing.
Finally get home, had goolash for dinner, went to bed and got ready for the next day of work.
This may not seem too bad, or sad. However, it was terrible. Even as I stood there I couldn't concentrate because I couldn't help but worry over the judgment (lack of a better word) to come. In pain, on crutches for more reasons then one, and he was sick? Yeah, fun times!
Bah, your turn!
