Welcome the Fry Guy
Well, my sister's wedding went off without too many hitches (except the all-important one where they got hitched), and Shayne is now officially part of the family. There were the usual emotional ups and downs during the wedding fuss (by which I mean the planning and politics leading up to the Big Day, and the post-party let-down), but the overall aftertaste was a pleasant one.
Shayne works for McCain's and let me in on an interesting fact: McCain's produces 1/3 of the world's french fries. Wow. Including those served at certain fast food chains which I'm failing to mention here in case it's some sort of big secret. Mmmmm. Secret fries.
Anyway, the weather was decent for the wedding; not as sunny as we'd hoped, but temperature-wise it was perfect. The guys in suits didn't fry, the gals in strapless dresses didn't freeze. And it didn't rain, although it looked like it might for a while there.
And now I'm back to the daily grind, tired but otherwise no worse for wear. It's funny, I kept thinking, "Oh, I'll be able to do this or that when the wedding's past," but really, I am playing catch-up in my real life and have no time to do those things yet.
Like the wedding photos. All 18 trillion of them. Not up yet.
We've been busy processing, packing and shipping documentary orders. I think we've shipped around 900-950 units, but to tell you the truth, I've kind of lost track. It's all a blur.
