Heading out in a few minutes for some reception-week pampering. Hopefully some of the stress toxins of the week will be pushed or flushed or sucked out of my body, and the rest of the week will flow smoothly and uneventfully. When finished tonight both my pores and my aura will be clean and my only problem will be maintaining that state through Saturday.

Seriously kiddies, I know marriage is new to The Gays, and maybe we have some learning to do, but our wedding was beautiful. The key: there were only five people there, including both grooms, and only five people in the world with advance knowledge. I’m very glad we let that be small, and gave ourselves three months to corral together The Hundred for the after-party. Don’t know how I could have dealt with the emotion of the marriage and the chaos of the reception planning all at the same time. I’m not even sure how I’ll deal with them separated by three months.
