Over a week ago now my little sister got married. It was a crazy filled weekend, but I loved being home with family, even if we did have to talk my mom down from a few ledges. The reception was the first time we just got to sit down and let other people worry about the food and what not. (At least it was that way for me!)
In any case, at the reception comes the bouquet toss. And last year I caught about 5 bouquets, with cursed results. So, this year not only have I attended less weddings, but I now avoid the bouquet toss altogether. I intended to continue the trend at my sister’s wedding. In fact, my sole enjoyment would be tackling my other sister. However, she got pushed to the middle, and I could see no good coming out of taking out all those other girls just to get to Lexi.
Ergo, I was just going to stand there like a lame log. Until just before Sara went to throw, I noticed all the little wimpy girls, and competition took over. It would just be too easy, and it was. Right before the throw I decided to get it and show them who’s boss. So, I was in the middle of taking off a heel when flowers were let go and I had to jump one-shoed thru the air. It was seriously too easy. And then to show my flair, I ceremoniously threw down my other remaining shoe.
From which exuberance I received a few tips that certain people’s brothers were still single. Trust me people, I am in no rush to be married off to your brothers! I just really like flowers, and if no one gives them to me, I take it!
In any case, the curse has continued. So, during my friend’s upcoming wedding this weekend, I will be sitting at the table, enjoying my dessert while the bouquet is tossed. I’ve once again learned my lesson: If you want flowers, get them at Costco.

Talk me off a few ledges???? I thought I was pretty calm and composed the whole weekend!!! At least that was the air I was trying to convey!
P.S. I was wondering why the one shoe! Glad you explained it!
ha ha ha ha thanks Jordan. Glad to know your previous plan to tackle me backfired and that the Zendejas competitiveness got the better of you!
Oh Jordan...congratulations. I think you got everything right. You should be focused on getting money in borderline unethical ways so that you can afford a trophy husband and then you can live out your dreams of being a world-class cougar. That is all
