The extravaganza of it all....the wedding of the year?

































I had family over the weekend, and we all went to a cousin's wedding at the Hyatt Huntington Beach. It was a muslim and a catholic wedding - we were strictly instructed that it was a black tie affair - hence all the ladies were in evening gowns and the men in tuxes and suits.
I deliberately missed the two ceremonies (Catholic and Muslim) because who are we kidding, I do not have 6 hours to sit down and attend two wedding ceremonies - no matter how regal, fancy, elaborate and wonderful it is - honey, I just do not have the time. I heard it was quite a production...well that is always the case with many relatives of mine. Everything is a production...right down to the hair clip that sits on the top of your head (or in this case the peacock feather). It was well circulated that the wedding costs them $200 a head, that the bride was wearing a $5,000 dress, that it costs $350 to book at room at the Hyatt and that the parents of the groom have a mansion of a house. Damn, these people.

Oh yeah, and that every aunt of mine now has had some form of cosmetic surgery - nose, tummy tuck, boobs - you name it. Nice, I thought - so I guess my vain mentality was inherited after all. Great.

The bride had a beautiful mermaid gown. However, she had feathers on her head. She had a peacocks tail feathers on the head? Why? Fashionable yes - but timeless, I highly doubt that. I will admit though that despite the peacock feathers on her head - she looked beautiful. Definitely unique -

I left at 11 - because the Afghan music was splitting my pea brain in numerous little pieces. It was nice to get dressed, go out, have dinner and mingle with family for a few hours, before going back to this dark hole of a place, I call - the bar dungeon.

And oh yeah - while looking at the wedding photos and at my female relatives and many wedding guests who appeared to had just came from their visit to cosmetic surgeons - and were looking all skinny, with high noses and big boobs -I realized that I am getting chubby and need to diet - need to lose 15 pounds by the end of the month. I hate being chubby - Although I love my bubble butt - I don't like all that weight on my arms and face. Crap - dieting - one more thing I must add on my too long of a to-do list. Maybe I can have a surgeon suck out all the fat....hah! j/k

OMG. You so don't need to diet! You hardly eat! You look great, but if you feel that you have to get leaner, cardio is the answer.
