fancy pants dance

So this weekend I have spent my time off doing family stuff with My Darling Man and his kin. I don't mind that really, but there have been awkward moments. Today is THE (COUSINS!!!) WEDDING. That means fancy shoes and fancy pants. (No, I am not wearing that dress no matter how much you want me to freeze my ass off and wave my nipples at your aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. "So lovely to meet you!") it also means hair-doing type activities and makeup which I am awful at. I never really learned that stuff, and its just silly to me. (But I do clean up nice when required.) It also also means being surrounded by hundreds of total strangers while trying not to freak out from social awkwardness and not get noticed and simultaneously making a good impression because, hey, I want them to think I am the wonderful Dreamy Charming and Witty Perfect Woman for My Darling Man and not just some freaky-ass chick he met at work. So ill get all glammed up, wobble around in pumps, hope my boobs don't pop out, worry that the crap on my face is smeared, try not to say anything wierd, attempt to make nice with kind strangers, and try like hell not to get too nervous at the reception and drink Too Many Cocktails and dance/fall/faux pas or otherwise draw attention to/make a fool of myself in front of everyone.

Deep breath.

Its all worth it because I love My Darling Man very dearly, and I want them to know that too. Hopefully he realizes this. I love you MDM!

Okay, so I'm getting really freaked out here because I have no knowledge that this happened, and am going to be really pissed if it did and...no-one-like-a-certain-person-didn't-tell-me-so-that-I-could've-been-there-which-would've-been-really-important-to-me.
I had better get a call or something.
