Whew. Back from the wedding. Didn't do too bad on the eye of a hurricane part, although the hurricane was less than I expected and I did break down crying during my toast. However, it was a glorious day—everyone looked beautiful, the reception was the party of the year, and most importantly to this big sister, I've never seen my brother happier. I guess he's really a grownup now.

Still recovering on the sleep part…the night before the wedding was completely sleepless, and the night after mostly. Too much adrenaline and emotion. But last night was good, and I'm looking forward to another solid night tonight before I re-embark on my crazy schedule for the next few weeks. And then it's on to packing for the move. I'm beginning to understand why some animals hibernate in winter, and I'm definitely looking forward to my little cave in the Northwest.
