Wed This

The Other McCain,* who really should change his blog to The McCain, links to a story about a crazy 38 year old woman who bought herself the dream wedding:
A woman decided she would marry herself in her dream wedding after being dumped three months before the big day.

Laëtitia Nguyen, from France, had been with her fiancé for three years and the pair had spent a lot of time planning their $40,000 (£22,000) wedding. 
Marrying herself? I can't believe her fiancée walked out on her.

Forgive us for getting nostalgic but as noted before, Mrs. Stroock and I just celebrated our 20th wedding Anniversary on August 23rd.

We had a nice wedding at the Dupont Country Club in Wilmington Delaware with 77 guests all family and friends.


We assure the reader(s) our wedding cost a lot less than 40 grand. ** 
Still it seemed like a lot of money back then. At one point the future Mrs. Stroock burst into tears wondering how her parents were going to pay for it.

Dream weddings extravaganzas- what the heck? Young girls can be forgiven for thinking mom and dad will throw them a Disney dream wedding.

But a 38 year old woman should know better.

Sorry honey, you missed the boat. Get yourself a nice dress and head down to the justice of the peace. That's all you get.


And you wonder why sensible men think women are insane.

Exit interview, everything Coash Leach says is right:



*If you are a young man we strongly urge you to follow Mr. McCain's advice on dating and marriage.

**Being a working bachelor we chipped in a thousand; for the bar. We would be damned if a guest of Will Stroock had anything less than a top flight drink.
