weddings and protest marches go hand in hand

This was probably one of the longest days ever and so much happened so I'm just going to list them:
-We woke up at around 8 to go help Cynthia's mom and Ivan get the decorations ready. We made this really sweet archway thing.
-Cynthia, her brothers, Abraham, and I went to pick up my car since we had to leave it in Greensboro. Honestly, I have never been so nervous about anything in my life. Well, almost anything.
-When we were leaving the parking deck in greensboro, there was a protest march thing right in front of us so we had to wait til it was over.
-Cynthia and I went to walmart. We saw Mr. Gillim(no idea how to spell his name) but he was our gym teacher in middle school. hahaha
-Took a shower.
-Went to walmart.
-Got dressed in our "wedding attire".
-Went to walmart.
-Finished getting everything ready back at her house.
-Went to walmart.
-Finally, left for the wedding. On the way there someone calls Cynthia and tells her that the protest thing is on one of the streets close to the wedding. Seriously, what are the chances?
-I drop off Cynthia and then go park and go into the building. I felt kind of crazy going in at first because no one would open the door, I was carrying 3 purses and two coats, and I was searching for a table with a silk table cloth(there wasn't one) hahaha.
-The wedding happened. It was nice.
-Dancing. I actually didn't dance though. What a wallflower. ha
-Afterwards, we went back to her house with some of her family and friends. We tried to find a movie but we couldn't decide on anything so by the end everyone was asleep. We started watching Donnie Darko and it was pretty much only Cynthia, Romeo, and me watching and then shortly after just Romeo. Cynthia woke me up so we could go sleep in her bedroom. If we had stayed asleep in the living room, we probably wouldn't have been able to move in the morning because we were in the most awkard positions haha.

Took me long enough to post this...
