Ahh... don't we all love weddings?

So, yesterday was my cousin's wedding. It was one of the better ones I've attended. Everything moved fast, it was not pretentious at all, she looked beautiful and everyone was in a great mood.

One thing that has really picked up some momentum in the last year or two with all of the baby showers, weddings, etc. that have been going on is that question to me of "So, when is it going to be your turn?" I guess because I'm getting ready to hit the BIG 3-0 and people younger than me in my family have already started the route down the adult road, it just seems like a natural question. I don't know why I get so thrown by it though. I truly don't have a good answer for it. J's answer is usually "Sometime between now and never". That's comforting...

I would make a beautiful bride though, huh? :)

R.I.P. little pod

Well, my iPod didn't make it. We gave it time to dry, took it apart, looked around (it smelled like blueberry coffee once opened up), but... nothing.

It's not all that bad, I ended up getting another one as another gift. It's the exact same one, just a little cheaper now. I'm not used to seeing my video screen so clear and not covered in scratches. Now I have another little pod to love and keep away from open coffee cups. I'm going to be so paranoid now, but in different ways than when I had my last one. I only ever worried about losing it. I knew where it was at all times and if I didn't, I was finding out where it was real quick. Now I can feel myself being scared about every little thing with this new one - am I plugging it in too hard? blah blah blah. I'm sure I'll get over the fear eventually. It's funny how dependent I've become on this little thing that's no bigger than my hand.

So, needless to say, nothing is holding me back from my 30 Seconds to Mars addiction now. It's back on in full force. Now that I have maxed out both songs The Kill and From Yesterday, I have moved on to current song obsession Modern Myth. I may need help.

This is how happy I look when I think of my weekly Sunday trip to Waffle House!

My poor pod

I dropped my beautiful, well loved iPod in my coffee cup yesterday morning, totally submerging it to the point where it's not working right now. The more time that passes and it dries out, the more things it does like the "very low battery" wheel actually spins around, the screen lights up and then blinks on and off real fast.

Please pull through little pod.

I will miss you if you are completely gone.

This unfortunate turn of events really gets in the way of me enjoying my latest musical obsession 30 Seconds to Mars. I've never really been one for male bands, except GNR of course, but this band is awesome. I can't get enough and I've been listening to them non-stop for days. I almost think this pod in the coffee thing was for my own benefit, since the 30stm addiction can't be that healthy.
