I'd be durned if I did not meet a copy of my father at my friends' (Tara and Adam) wedding. It was a little weird. I knew there was something about the guy that caught my attention but it was not until we were talking later on in the evening that I realized what it was. They share the same interest in politics, same way of handling people, similar philosophies on life, close in height (though he is a little taller than my father), very principled, and they are both always the statesmen. Talking to him was more than a little weird. His comment to me that evening "I knew there was something about you that i liked." Hum i probably remind him of his mother.

Oh and there is no way that anything would happen there. I will admit most of the guys I am interested in have traits similar to my father, such as being highly principled men, but there comes a point where someone is too much like your dad. :)

Tara and Adam's wedding was wonderful. She looked beautiful, but that is no surprise. This woman is beautiful even when she is sweaty playing football. She fairly skipped down the aisle and while they were taking their vows. Adam had that look that so many grooms have the "this is mine. I got this wonderful prize. She belongs to me! (not in the cave man way you know what I mean.)" It was wonderful wedding and it was good to see everyone. The wedding was fun but the whole weekend was as well. I liked walking down the streets of Asheville and running into people we knew. I enjoyed the ridiculous conversations that would often occur between us. I enjoyed being in their company. It was just good to see some of the old gang. It was good the same way last weekend at Nick and Jill's wedding was. It was a different group but still the same sort of Mercer feel. I can honestly say that I enjoy the people I went to law school with. Again I have been blessed with knowing some good people. I have three more weddings coming up. Hopefully I will get a chance to go to them and just enjoy their company.


In other news I am still seeking employment. Sigh. I will be heading out for the job fair later on this week. I am hopeful. I have to be. The only thing I struggle with is, is this the right move at this time... am I giving up. Are the doors really closed right now? I am hoping that God gives me clear cut direction. I fear taking any job just because it is a job. I don't want to put myself in two years of hades. I want to do work that challenges me but I also want to enjoy the people I work with. I can do any task as long as I care about the people I am working with and for.

Ok enough blab. I'm off to go write some e-mail.

Miss you guys.
