so tomorrow is the day. i am going to be married. it is strange. i honestly still don't believe in the institution of marrage, yet i find myself entering into it. why? well, because it is important to the government and because the ceremony is important to our families. my love and commitment to melissa is not going to be validated or enforced by the act of being married, or at least i say that now. but considering that i have never considered the prospect of leaving melissa up to today, i cannot imagine how being bound in a contract legally makes that any different.
my father made a funny at the rehersal dinner and said some wonderful things. both of them did an outstanding job with the arrangements for today.
melissa meanwhile has been amazing. this day is going to be really special and wonderful for the both of us. in fact, i am pretty sure that this day is enough to make me eat the words of the first paragraph.
