well i had my buddy tophers wedding this past weekend. I had friday night all to myself and i relaxed for once. i needed a mental and physical break after the past few weeks and the pitsburgh trip. Reagrdless i left strait from my saturday morning brake class to the wonderful burg of Hamtramck. The wedding was at a Ukrainian catholic church and was kinda messed up.
the ceremony took like an hour and the only thing i could think of was the wedding scene from the princess bride when the preist was chanting and doing the ceremony. There were a couple of weird traditions as well. first and formost was the giant "muffin" as most of us on the German / Irish side called it. basically it is a big loaf of bread that they shalac and decorate and it proceeds everybody in the wedding procession and the couple keeps it as a keepsake. Tophs mom was kinda pissed she was being proceeded by a big muffin. also the brides entire fmaily came in before tophs. The slights did not end there
at the reception individual members of the brides family were thanked for comming long ways. and the grooms sid, including me, were all lumped into one thank you. The only irish thing that was happened to this point was the fact chris name was metioned ( its mallory). In a half assed move the read a traditional irish fairwell for a toast
bascially we took it as all you dumb mics get out.
we had out payback though and the Dropkick Murphys helped us god bless those boys from boston
we went and got a CD out of ians car and requested the track number for "Kiss Me I'm Shitfaced"
then once it finally came on the group of us including the groom all danced with beer in hand like a bunch of drunkin idiots
it was awsome and got thumbs up for a very disgrunlted and pissed off tophers mom
once again punk music saves a crappy time
so take that old world traditions
i spent sunday recovering and in lansing visitin potts and jill and the boys. all in all it was a fun weekend
i got to fight the power a little and i got piss drunk and i got to see my friends
thats the most important part
thanks for letting me crash at the house again ONI ( adam)

It amazes me that people are still that trite this day in age. I'm glad you got to shove it in their faces though.
