Marriage -- BLAH or..?

Well it's now officially spring, people!

That glorious time of the year when the grass is showing again, flowers are starting to show up at a greenhouse near you and thought of love begin to flow like the many rye and gingers I consumed at Wayne's parents place on Easter weekend.

FYI, before I begin.. guess who is a Canadian Champion now! :)

My glorious baby girl actually finished her Championship at the beginning of February in Calgary, but unbeknownest (sp?) to us, we thought she was still a point shy.

Anyway.. she was dumped all weekend by 2 female crackpot judges who couldn't be swayed by her flawless movement or my wonder-bra'd cleavage and lowcut blazers, but we got a movement/lecher/American judge on Sunday and she took Best of Breed to OFFICIALLY finish.

Championship certificate in hand, I now plan a roadtrip to the University of Saskatchewan to get her hips cleared before she gets laid.

Yowee Zowee.. what a life.

My brother, Trinity came for the Motley Crue concert in Edmonton this weekend. Had a blast hanging out with him and both Wayne and him came back mostly deaf. T was also nice enough to attach Nik to his ticket and fly my new campaign dog down, so folks, my boy is officially a city dog now!

He looks so good, too!

Anyway.. back to Spring.

I can't help it.. despite everything I've gone through with Wayne in the past few months, when his stepbrother, Brad, semi-proposed to his girlfriend (well, he was tanked, he gave her a 'promise ring' and a promise to marry her within the year) I got all romantic and well.. I'm female, fill in the blanks.

I wanted to make them a card OFFICIALLY congratulating them on their 'commitment' so I went browsing the web to find some good marriage quotes. Funny how many websites are dedicated to very bitter quotes on marriage!

Here's a few I had to share:

'They say the number of people watching you is directly proportional to the stupidity of your action... I should have realized my mistake when my ex-wife wanted a big wedding'

' "I am" is reportedly the shortest sentence in the English language -- could it be that "I Do" is the longest sentence?'

'I haven't spoken to my wife in years. I didn't want to interrupt her.'

'If you want to sacrifice the admiration of many men for the criticism of one, go ahead, get married. '

I still can't help to stare wistfully at bridal magazines in the line at the supermarket, or to click on popups for online bridal shops and dream about the day I, too, might be one of those many women who meld their life with the life of the man they love.

Or do I?

*sigh*

Spring sucks.
