I'm going to a wedding in August. NO I'm not the one getting hitched. Its my rock docotor of an uncle who is getting married for the 2nd time and truth be told, I don't want to go. Thus, I'm here to ask addvice. I've been to 2 wedding so far but those were back when I was 3 and 4 years old so, as you can tell, I don't have a damn clue on how to act or anything.
Truthfully I don't want to be there because I don't like the women he is marrying and I like his last wife more than I liked him. She was a lawyer, crazy (she threw stuff at judges), and over all very funny. But he new wife I know little of other than she works with him, she can teach, and she laughs at any joke anyone tells, good or bad.
So what should I do?
Also, on a side note the wedding is taking place across the bay from San Fransisco near the college of Berkly so if anyone happens to be up and wants a visit from EJP, if I end up going, let me know. I can already tell you I'll be bored out of mind for the 2-4 days. Not to mention I don't have a damn clue what to do up there.

If you're not in the wedding, just grin and bear it. Just do what everyone else does. I was at a wedding 2 yrs ago and all we did was sit there and clap and so on. It's really not complicated. And there's food at the end; that's always a positive.
As for not liking his fiance, i'm not sure that's your decision (<--brutal honesty)

From what I was told by one of my bosses at work today, My uncle has devorced his Ex-wife and I've yet to since we (my sister and I) liked her better than him. Oh and yes I am going seeing how I already took the day off even though really I took the day off to avoid any singing for my birthday which is the day before that day I would have gone to work.
Thanks for the addvice.
(Side note: EJP hates it when people sing happy birthday to him. If done so at work he'd go barrow his bosses boss's rubber chickens and bombard all around him with them.)

...Your bosses have rubber chickens...Why?... No, my bosses Boss. Ed is his name. He has rubber chickens. WHY you ask. Because he is the one that gets all the bitching about how his department is over budget (Note: I work in facilitities. You know, maintenace of a entire college.). I think you can guess why they are often over budget. If not, heres why. They get TONS of requests to fix, install, clean, and build stuff which HAS to be done. So he has the rubber chickens to throw at people when he gets in a bad mood and YES he does throw them. He has one big one in a glass case with a "Break in case of Emergency" label on it. Right next to the door of his office. He is really a nice person. Just, he gets alot of bitching from the bean counters. |

but be careful with wedding food...one time we found something that looked like a small brain in the chicken wings...but that was back when I was about 5 or 6, so who knows what kind of new laws there are about processing chicken.
oh, and if you have to stand up for long periods of time don't lock your knees. you'll pass out quickly.

oh, and if you have to stand up for long periods of time don't lock your knees. you'll pass out quickly. Did I forget to mention that during my job I'm on my feet most of the time? I should be fine with standing. I went to comic con last year and that was a hell of alot of walking and standing. Took me a week to recover from it though. Food... well... I don't know anything about the food at this wedding. Truthfuly if I was a sercet agent infiltrating this wedding for some reason, I wouldn't go since I have a great lack of details about the wedding, let alone the people at it. Only thing I know are, its taking place at Jill's (My uncle's bride to be) mother's house and that my grandparents, my mom and dad, my sister and her boyfriend, and I are going. Its up near San Francisco and the college of Berkly. We are traveling by car up there and staying in a hotel where I will be sleeping on the floor (Since I don't want to be in a room with my sister and her boyfriend for very clear reasons that you can find in another thread.). Oh and that I'll most likely end up bored out of my skull with 0 computer access, 0 video games (Other than my craptastic PSP), and hotel TV that more than likly will not have the channels I like to watch. Oh and the last thing I know is that I've been ordered by my mom to keep an eye on my Grandpa's drinking even though he is not an alcolic and even if he does get smashed, they'll be enough people to drive him and grandma back to their hotel. |

Oh how if I knew who you were in real life, I'd put a boot up your ass. I already know my sister and Nick (The boyfriend) are going to be going at it like rabbits while were up there. As for my grandpa being drunk, he doesn't get drunk. Or atleast I've never seen him doing so. Seeing him drunk would be a first... unless is a professional drunk (Means you can't tell when he is drunk. Not to mention he can drive the same as he is sober.) in which case I wouldn't know. |

what i thought was funny was the thought of ejp without technology, kinda like my trip to my great aunt's house in ohio where she doesn't even have central AC. i got this random image of ejp banging his head into a brick wall repeatedly.

Well... thats close. I'd punch the brink wall, not bash my head into it. Punching would atleast have some benifits other than bashing my head into a wall and retarding myself with each blow. |

hey, but if you hit your head hard enough, you'll go into a coma and, oh, how the time will fly.
