The One You're Meant To Be With

Time: 3:22pm
Mood: sore (damn gym!)
Song of the moment: Silversun Pickups - Lazy Eye

Planning the wedding has officially taken over my life. 5 months to go and I'm in a frenzy trying to get everything done. I can no longer use the phrase "Oh, I have time!". This weekend alone, I had an appointment to get measured for my Chinese dress, and tomorrow Jimmy and I are heading to The Bay to put items on our registry. I'm actually quite excited about that one - I'll get to use the infamous gun :)

Since a coworker of mines is also getting married this year (actually in my department alone, 4 out of 9 of us are getting married this year), we talk about wedding stuff sometimes. So one day I asked him if he was getting nervous about getting married. Another coworker (an anti-marriage prick) overheard the question, and proceeded to ask him if he was nervous he wasn't marrying the right woman. Then he continued to pipe in, telling us reasons why he's not getting married and how people are not supposed to spend forever with each other, yadda yadda yadda. So I proceeded to tell him this (in a joking tone, but I was serious!): The person you will marry, that you're meant to be with, is essentially the person you can tolerate the most. If you think about it, it's true. I'm not going to be with someone that annoys the shit out of me - that just makes no sense. With saying that, I told him, there is no right women in hell that would be able to tolerate him, therefore even if he wanted to get married, he probably wouldn't - so in his eyes, he wins! Sure enough, that shut him up, and I continued my conversation with my coworker.

Hahah I know.. I can be such a bitch! :)
