so i just recently returned from a wonderful one week vaction. and i mean i truly took a vacation. the only schedule or structure the entire week was my flights and rachels wedding.
so.....rachel's wedding. it was beautiful. almost as beautiful as she was. it was amazing to see this woman who i have known since i "dated" her as a little girl back in fifth grade. it was excellent. and i only cried once. and i chose to cry to the groom because rachel and i had aleady talked about how we weren't going to cry. then i ran to the bathroom to finish and clean myself up only to find rachels mother waiting for me (cuz she saw me start) how sweet. i love her family. i guess rachel and i did tear up during brian adams' "everything i do i do it for you" thjat i dedicated to her in honor of it being our song in 5th grade. ;] it was great though all around. i saw some people i hadn't talked to in a long while. i talked to parents that i hadn't seen in a very long time. all of it made me feel very old but yet still very younge cuz i had just got a brand new "orange" faux hawk the day before. so sometimes i found myself wondering when i was going to grow up but then realized i have a many many ways. and rachels wedding was proof to myself and others. i felt very loved and appreciated that day. everyone from the wedding party(and others) approached me saying" you are cody right?" and then going on to tell me that they were glad i made it cuz rachel would have been a mess if i hadn't and it was so nice to finally meet me cuz they had heard so much about me. it was nice.
now on to less serious gushy lovey stuff and on to the raw energy of the eve and a girl that i met who has come to be known as molly. molly came into the picture when at some point in the night the free beer and champagne was all gone and she needed a drink! me being the guy with the money she sauntered up in a wired/drunk sort of way and demands my money for drinks. this happens twice cuz i run out of money after the second time. after i chase this streak of pink and neon green all over for a while and the receoption ends we decide to leave. the next thing i know i see her fall outside of the car. me being the person that i am and loving it when people fall i automatically laugh. molly peers over the window with a "i had nothing to do with the fall it was the sidewalk being pulled out from under me" kind of expression on her face. even funnier.....when she goes to get up she falls again only this time along with the same facial expression and more sincerity backing it than i have seen in a drunk individual in a while she says, "what the fuck is going on?!" she gets in the car and for a couple minutes we debate whether she fell or not cuz for a little while she defends herself by saying that she didn't fall she sat down. aparently she likes to clumbsly sit on curbs right out side of the car she is supposed to be getting into. but that ends with a mutual giggle fit where we both knew i was right in what actually happened. then we drive.
and we drive.
and we drive.
we are lost for one hour all while meg, oh i mean molly is yelling at me. demanding i pull over so she can put her glasses on."just pull over so i can put my glasses on!!!" then when i don't.... "fine have it your way!" at one point i was being hit in the face and the head by flying objects from her purse because she was looking for her glasses. then there was the time where she yells out, and she genuinely believes herself, and says, "cody you live in des moines and i drive here a lot colectively we can figure this out and find where we are going!"
we were in milwaukee.
i inform her of this and when she realizes i am right she finally shuts up.
for one minute.
then starts back in. this time she has to pee. "just pull over somewhere i have to pee!"
me: but we are right off of a main road, "molly", and i need to know the number to the hotel. where is it?
i had pulled over at this point to let her pee. she proceeds to slam the door in my face leaving me alone with her phone while she is up against some brick wall peeing. she returns to the car to excitedly inform me that the street we were about to pull on to was grande ave. "that road right there is grande avenue cody, see? right there its grande avenue!" once again i had to dissapoint her and tell her that we were in milwaukee not des moines. then i get directions to the hotel and we meet up with the wedding one last time where i go dance with lots of peole that know me even though i just met a lot of them hearing a lot of "where have you beens", and "what took you so longs." while "molly" sips on her last beer and yells at i guy in the wedding party that she assumes is hitting on her. her reasoning for this: i guess because he is straight. and he asked who she was....? ;]
incase you haven't put anything together yet...........this "molly" is actually meghans new found alter ego. meghan is not mean. especially if she is wasted. but meghan became molly and the only explanation for it is the whiskey that she consumed. it was hilarious. and a bit nerver racking at one point because she was being redidulous and mean. but i sat back and dealt with it cuz i realized i had probably done this to her and then told her i couldn't wait to remind her of this tomorrow. she ofcourse doesn't remember all of it. she doesn't remember most of the car ride when we were lost. its funny. and its even funnier when you know her and know how she usually is when she is wasted. needless to say i had a really great time at the wedding and the reception.
ok this got long so i will have to write about the maggots and block party hide and seek at a later date.
i had such a great week.
love ~ cody tyler
