12 Years

on this day, twelve years ago, i wore a tea lenghth, teal, taffeta dress; hashifa vachoo wore bangs, too short (she cut herself); jenny wore a giant wedding dress enviable only by daughters of mafia lords.

as micah is not here, you don't get a special song. instead, i make minor changes and re-publish last year's song:

sometimes when i'm having a really bad day
and nothing seems to make my blues go away
oh, i look at your wedding photos
'cause they're so effing hilarious

jenny's gigantic dress and scott's in tails
taffeta dresses and vanderbears
oh, mom's as big as a house
and the hot august weather
but it 12 years later
you're 12 times better

you've got three obnoxious children that bear your face
natalie speaks in tongues, kendall doesn't know shapes
and nicholas doesn't do anything, but he'll throw up on your sweater
but it 12 years later, you're twelve times better
