fin (Edgar & Carissa's Wedding)

A weird hush has fallen on the SE MN valley. After a year of anticipation, excitement & planning has come to an end. The last member of the crew has wed. A long weekend of laughing, partying, reminiscing has closed. The highlights...

• Have you toured the Basement: S-C-A-R-Y Not sure what was worse... the endless hallway, the abandoned cot, the chains hanging from the pipes, the toilet, the furnace room... oh damn... it was one wiered trip
• DJ Master Oldee: A slightly repugnant DJ who had his finger on the pulse of hip-hop culture kept trying to convince the newly weds & the wedding party of his skills. Best line, "You won't get people back on the dance floor with Mr 50 Cent."
• You call me captain kangeroo: I can hold anything you want. I got pockets a-plenty.
• Hot Buns 'contest'?: From what I hear, I was glad I didn't watch. For the rest of you... those images will haunt you the rest of your lives.
• My back... wait... my hamstring: Not a good memory for me... but others seemed to enjoy knocking me on the ground, laughing while I seated myself, asking why I couldn't pick up the sand ceremony containers. All I can say is that I fought through the pain and upheld my end of the bargain.
• Doni doing the Robot: After a weekend of playfully bashing each other, seeing Edgar's nephew drop the robot on the dance floor dropped me to the floor.
• Cubs Pilsners w/ Chipotle $$$: Got to be the best wedding gift ever given.
• Good Friends: So glad to be a part of this weekend. Having Edgar, Matt & Brian at my side for 3+ days was awesome. So much fun & laughter.

But now... a sadness of seeing Edgar leave for his new ventures in El Paso, and realizing his trips to MN won't require driving%2
