Today's the Day! I spent all night dreaming about wedding mishaps and the Olympics (an unlikely combination), so when I woke up at 6 this morning, I decided to stay awake. A few nights ago I had a terrible dream in which several of us (at least me, Gary, and his dad) were wandering around this building, part school, part museum, part City Hall, looking for each other and the stuff we needed for the wedding. We figured it all out at 4, but by then it was too late; we had missed our own wedding. I feel more prepared than that, but marginally.
I've been through all this before, but I feel more anxious now than I did 11 years ago. I don't know if that's a good sign; I hope so. Not much is really going to change between us, as Gary has repeatedly pointed out. I'm not changing my name, we're not merging our finances, and our families seem out-of-this-world happy about us getting married.
For the uninformed, Gary and I are getting married this afternoon at City Hall in San Francisco. With us will be Gary's dad and our best friends John and Eva. And yes, we'll take pictures.

CONGRATULATIONS!
Love,
