Quick recap of the wedding, sans speech 04/21/2004

Quick reminder, tomorrow is Earth Day, so go do something nice to the earth. I don't know, recycle or something... Or hey! Try another blackout, or try it for the first time if you didn't do it last time.

So I had a good, but exhausting, time in Pheonix. The wedding went really well, especially considering that I didn't really ever stop drinking since I got into town.
The two big comments I got during the ceremony were:

"I really liked your speech. It was short, and to the point. And funny. But also very poignant." (Okay, maybe they didn't use the word poignant, but it's what they meant.)

And also, "So... what exactly sort of minister are you? I've never seen a minister who holds a beer in one hand, a cigarette in the other, has piercings and tattoos, and swears like a sailor. Until now."

That prompted several interesting conversations about religion, which caused the religious people to walk away in a huff and the non-religious people to offer to get me another beer.

Worked out great for me either way.
