Gopey's Big Day

July 11, 2008 @ 18:13

My wife Delyse and our neighbour Ally spent about half an hour this morning sitting in my car in the driveway.

They were being nosey.

Our neighbours on the other side were off to the wedding of their daughter Gopey, and Delsye and Ally wanted to see her in her wedding dress.

Our neighbours are East Indian, and it was quite the week on our street. Relatives from all over the globe converged on Brampton and several of them stayed next door, and they got great use out of their garage.

I don’t know if its part of the East Indian culture or whether its just a passion for garages, but most of the festivities took place in the garage this week. There were tables set up, and bar along one wall and a barbeque that was chugging out the most delicious smelling food.

There was laughter, loud chatter and at one point, even some dancing on the driveway.

Today everybody next door woke up early and prepared for the wedding that would take place at nine o’clock this morning in Scarborough.

And that’s why my wife and Ally were in my car this morning. It didn’t matter that it was wife’s day off and she likes to sleep in on Friday’s, she set the alarm for 6:45 and made sure she was up in time.

There was a light rain falling, but they didn’t want to miss Gopey emerging from the house in her cultural wedding dress.

They wanted to see a kid who grew up on the street take her last few Brampton steps as a single girl.

They weren’t disappointed, Gopey looked tired and nervous, but she looked beautiful and happy has she slid into the waiting limousine.

Delyse and Ally were impressed, but uncharacteristically they did not shed a tear.

I guess part of them was pissed off we didn’t get invited to the wedding.

I hope you meant HER wedding dress, otherwise you can expect Argue to chime in at any moment :P

Gopey looked tired and nervous,"

Of course she did – she’s probably 13 and her fiancée is 60. Par for the course when it comes to THESE types of weddings, no?

You’re right mike, the practice of a 13 year old marrying her 60 year old uncle doesn’t just belong to this couture. After all isn’t that how you were married… and you’re a WASPy aging hippie.

If you have emotions for him quit sleeping with him. ANY guy who may be sleeping with you for two years like a FWB is most likely not likely to get in a romantic relationship with you now, not right after that quantity of time. He's most likely very comfy with how points are, if he had feelings for you personally he would have told you or a minimum of stopped flirting with other girls. On the other hand, perhaps he won't realise 'what he's obtained til it is gone' kinda thing. When you do not realise how important somebody would be to you or that you have emotions for them till you're place into a scenario where you really consider it. Either way you need to stop, for your personal emotional nicely becoming. If you want to tell him why you stopped, because you have emotions for him, then go ahead, but beware of how your friendship might change. He'll either let you know how he feels, which I'm fairly certain is just friendship with actual attraction, or won't say something and you are able to attempt to be buddies without resting collectively, or if he does you are able to attempt at a relationship. If not, you need time and room away from him to get more than him, then you are able to think about persuing somebody else.

Like Suzuki, Nissan too is caught in the crosshairs of a major recall stemming from little fault of their own, aside from their choosing of Garmin to supply their portable navigation devices for several models (optional).Suzuki was first to announce the recall of some 20,000 vehicles thanks to the use of a Garmin portable navigation device that is known to potentially suffer from overheating, which can lead to a fire. Now its Nissan's turn, with seven models, all 2008 through 2010 model years, which used one of the recalled Garmin units.
