We attended the wedding of X and DO last night. It’s a strange, surreal feeling watching someone your own age make a decision usually reserved for grownups. X is only two years older than me, but she has already reached a place in life I do not project seeing myself in for at least another decade. What a brave girl. The two have been going out for two years, and they married a mere month after he proposed to her; my darling roommate N has been seeing her man-thing for eight years, and there is no talk of marriage on the horizon with them. What is going on with this world?

But I digress. X and DO are wonderful people. They are good for each other, and what a cute couple they make. They exhibited that wonderful, happy glow exhibited by people who are in love, and DO looked especially proud to be standing up there. He had one of those bewildered “My god, I can’t believe it’s her hand I’m holding, her hair I’m stroking” looks on his face the whole time. It would have moved you to tears, if that’s your sort of thing (only one set of eyes on our table that was not dry).

And now we can look forward to the babies they will be having. What do you get when you cross a Chinese and a Brazilian? Oh my goodness. Chizilians! X and DO are going to have the cutest, most beautiful little Chizilian babies! They will be wonderful parents, and I am going straight to hell in a handbasket for that terrible portmanteau.
