Googled lyrics and last minute revelations.


My original intention was to lay down something really insightful that I had come up with while preparing to make all this happen; but my minds only half up to the task of even typing this so I'm somewhat playing it by ear. Humor me and insert into the space below some poignant epiphany that surely must have struck in the scramble that has been the last few days.

Maybe something about how life as I am accustomed, is essentially rebooting; or how I will not only be the head of my own household, but accountable full time for more people than myself. Perhaps delving into the intricate details of husbandry, and could even include something funny about how although that sounds like the correct word to use in that sentence, isn't even close; but still manages to be very weirdly relevant. All the while the 1986 smash hit by Genesis would be playing in the background, the chorus of which has been in my head throughout the day. Poetry? Why not, I'd have meticulously scoured the interweb for a really touching piece that summed up the emotional impact of the past week, and as you read it, the amount of growth that must have surely occurred on my behalf will become subtly obvious and the whole shebang will end with some really clever emotional finish that leaves you with a sigh or some equally audible sign of satisfaction...
The fact is I'm sitting here quite nonplussed, watching this little mosquito thing buzz distractingly around my screen.  I'm extremely grateful that I could have so many of my family and friends to be here to share this with.  The biggest thing on my mind is that in less than 7 hours I will be married in the San Diego Temple for time and all eternity, to the person that has been my bestest of friends and most amiable of accomplices through all the strangeness life's thrown at me, and I could not be more happy. - Josh
