oh yeah, now that my cast page is published, i thought i should write an actual diary entry, lol.

anyway, the dentist yesterday went well. the dentist and hygenist were very pleased with my oral hygene. go figure. then i had that horrible gritty feeling all day. you know, after you go to the dentist, you feel like you're chewing toothpaste for the rest of the day, lol. anyway, at least they said my teeth and gums are good for another 6 months. woohoo!

i had a weird dream too... not last night, but the night before. i dreamt i was getting married, but it was horrible. i was like sitting in my living room watching tv and all of a sudden my godmother shows up and says "come with me, we have a surprise for you!" ummm... k. so she drives me to her house down the shore (not very far away) and there's all these people hurrying around. now, on a side note, something you should know about my godmother's residence. she lives with her sister in their parents house (her father just died earlier this year). her brother lives next door on one side, across a big open area where her father once had massive gardens (they're smaller now, but still there). on the other side is her father's sister's house, which houses her and her daughter and currently her son and his girlfriend, but they're moving out later this month. the next house down USED to house a girl my age, angela and her older brother matt and of course their parents until angela decided to pop out some kids and go on drugs and the father decided to call it quits with the mother. there are NO fences separating any of these houses so the yards all connect to make one huge mass of lawn. a park more like it. which actually is funny because this woman whom none of them knew was allowing her dog to roam free in this expanse of lawn and thought it was public property! ANYWAY, so when i say there are people hurrying around everywhere, i mean EVERYWHERE... between all these houses. so i'm ushered inside by my godmother through a kitchen that's obviously baking tons of goodies. i'm thinking to myself, "what's going on?" but cant say anything because it's all happening too quickly! i finally am halted in my godmother's bedroom. she throws me in and leaves! hmmmm. its all beginning to soak in... what i just saw, what could be happening... there's was lots of white and flowers and ribbens out there... when she comes back in carrying a puffy garment bag i say, "who's getting married?" to which she replies, "you of course!"

imagine my surprise. i asked her if it was cube and she said of course again... duh how silly of me to think they'd be surprise marrying me to anyone but him. so they get me in this gorgeous dress and do my hair and make up and in this time, everything has gotten settled outside. when i'm ushered out the door, i hear music, everyone is seated in all these white chairs and everything looks great! so i'm about ready to walk down the aisle and i'm straining to see cube at the other end when *bam* it starts pouring. NOT a good sign. so everyone is running for cover... i hike up my dress and run the way i just came, but suddenly my godmother's house is no longer. i turn around and there arent even any chairs. it's just me, out in the rain, in a wedding dress. and suddenly tv cameras. i look into one of the cameras and think i'm going nuts when i'm yanked backward into a truck by "surprise by design"'s robert verdi. "robert verdi?" i say. "surprise!" he says. right. duh, surprise still. "ummm, what tv show is this?" i say, pointing to all the camera's looking at us. "this is 'surprise you're a bride!'" of course, i should have known. how creative can my mind be with tv titles when i'm bouncing so quickly through reality?

this is about when i realize this truck is moving... "so where are we going? i thought everything was set up here. what happened?" "oh," says robert, "you can't get married in the rain! we're going to manhattan to get you a real wedding" oh gawd... from backyard beach to manhattan? what did i take before i went to bed? well, i dont remember much of what happened in the ride to manhattan besides robert redoing my hair and makeup after the rain ruined it all, while i blowdried my dress... when we arrive in manhattan, who's waiting to open the door to the truck but rebecca cole. 'surprise i'm a bride' remember? yeah, so then we all pile into central park for some good city marrying and pick pocketting. everyone's crying, some people are eating... i cant see my mother anywhere, i cant see cube anywhere... what the heck is going on? i'm finally told i can walk down the "aisle" of gerber daisy petals on a lime green shag carpet runner in between purple and pink folding chairs to an "alter" of industrial metal adorned with more gerber daisies and some tiger lilies. woah. definitely my mind showing me what would happen if 'surprise by design' met a wedding... so then i get up the the front and i'm looking for cube, but he's not there... no is actually. just the priest. so i ask him what's up... he tells me that i have to have the secret code. huh? yeah, secret code. "how would i know the code?" "oh, you'll know if you know" riiiiight... i'm about to break out in tears from stress and not being able to figure out the code when i woke up. thank goodness i'm not getting married for years to come. this would not be a good omen if i were due anytime soon.
