Mid-Winter Depression: A Poem

It's cold outside
When the wind hits your face you get tear-eyed
Too cold to walk the dog
Definitely too cold to jog

The plants are dead and brown
The whole world seems to slow down
I feel listless and blue
When is Spring coming? I wish I knew

Then I could count down the days
To grilling out and laying out (to soak up the sun's rays)
Winter go away!
Take your cold temps and skies of gray.

I hope I remember this feeling,
this summer when it's humid and hot
So when I start to wish the days were cooler
I'll think about this poem and be thankful that it's not.

A Prayer for My Wedding Day (and a Promise to My Bridesmaids)

Dear Lord,
Please help me to keep my sanity on my wedding day and not to lose it like the girl in this video did.
Thank you

(the video is about 6 minutes long if you choose to watch)

The promise to my bridesmaids is that I PROMISE I will not lose it like the girl in the video did. I believe I am incapable of reaching those high-pitched screeches and I hope I am mature enough to never take my hair that seriously.

The word is out now that this video is a hoax BUT the sad thing is that it could easily be true. If you've seen any kind of Bridezilla show you know that girls can go psycho at any time up to and including their wedding day.
