Why me?

My beloved has just sprung it onme that my weekend will be defiled by having to attend a wedding. A wedding between two people, one of whom I couldn't care less about and the other whom I actively dislike, in a place I don't like, at a most inconvenient hour.

Fuck.

Y'know, BB, the very thing had occurred to me. With luck, I'll be able to plausibly (if exaggeratedly) claim a blinding deathwish of a hangover and thus weasel out of chores.

P.S. I'm sorry the links are WAY THE HELL down there.

Drinking will take care of the reception, but what about the ceremony? You'd better bring your MP3 player. Or your laptop--is the church a WiFi hotspot? You could update your blog. An advance copy of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince would do the trick, except some unseemly scuffling might break out when people decide you should share.

--P.

p.s. Your links (I'm first!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA so there, bitches!) look fine to me.

The thing is not in a house of worship, since the groom (whom I've given teh sobriquet "Shining Path") has had other, previous, nuptial entanglements. Therefore the whole event (wedding & reception) shall be held at a hotel.

Perhaps I coud arrive already, much like Herbie The Love Bug this summer, Fully Loaded.

Bah.

I totally vote for showing up drunk to the thing itself, thus inspiring TFBYM to hustle you out of there in a timely manner or risk her social standing. Of course, you'll pay for this later. But it might be worth it.

The problem with Badger's suggestion is that I am a singularly amiable drunk. I don't yell, drop trou, sodomize the ice sculpture, eat the centerpiece or insult passersby. I mostly sit down, smiling like an idiot and gently slurring the few words chosen to leap across my larynx.

I will however, threaten to publish a VERY detailed account of the wedding here.
