Two months without writing.... And I have all the excuses in the world. Too much work, the wedding, the ridiculous amount of traveling that I do because of that too much work that I have, and, mainly, the fact that I realized that there are people for whom writing about their lives is such a comfortable practice and other people who seem to have more issues about writing about their lives. It seems that I am part of the later.
I have really not written many things about me that have really impacted my life in this blog. Even though I know nobody really reads this blog, there are many things that I have kept to myself. It seems that by not writing them I think they are not happening. That's the way I deal with my "issues". I really admire the people who can talk so candidly about their lives in these blogs. They have found a place where they can express themselves, save memories, and relate to others. However, I just couldn't do it. I just couldn't write about my personal problems, or fears, or issues, or whatever you want to call them. And I guess that without that need or desire pushing me, I stopped writing. I am not apologizing -- I am just telling it how it is.
However, there is no need to be so melodramatic. I also stopped writing because I don't have time. Period. That's it..... I don't get home until after 6 pm and the weekends are always filled with house stuff, and wedding stuff, and trips, and parties, and people coming over, etc., etc.., etc. But, hey, what the heck... that's life.
Wedding update: September 22. The date has changed like three times. I ordered my dress. I bought the first one I ever tried after trying like 20 other dresses. Way more expensive than what I had wanted to spend but I have this tendency to like expensive things, and I just couldn't get myself to buy a cheaper dress. Mom is taking care of the reception and we have hired someone to take care of things during the last two weeks before the wedding. We are still going to Greece for our honeymoon, even though the freaking Euro is so expensive! And, yes, I am nervous about getting married. Yes, I am. I want that day to come and get it over with, and go on with our lives. This marriage thing is just too intense.

You don't have to apologize, not to us, not to yourself. We do what we need to do to feel better, for some it's writing, for other it's not, that's just the way it is. I'm glad you're back though. I missed you!
If I can give you a little bit of advice for which I have no direct experience whatsoever, I would say: enjoy your wedding, every part of it (the before, the during, and the after). It's a once in a life time event (at least I hope it is for you) and you'll want to participate in every bit of it with a smile. Enjoy!! And congrats on getting your dress, I'm sure it's lovely.
