So fresh and so clean.
Jun. 23rd, 2007 10:51 pmI spent most of today cleaning the house. not sure why, it just needed done. I guess I was sick of living in a stinky house.
So, on a whim, I swept, mopped, scrubbed the bathroom to an inch of its life, cleaned my room, and am now doing three loads of laundry.
Before all of this happened, I had an epiphany. I was out with Ardiel and Fudge, and she was freaking out about their wedding. Ariel's parents (being the neurotic people that they are) are driving Ariel insane. Her mom insists she invites all these people Ariel doesn't know to the wedding, insists they get a fancy reception hall, and then bitches about the money. They are being demanding when it comes to expectations, but then they don't want to help pay for it all. They aren't supporting her at all. Ariel was threatening to drop the whole thing and just have a justice of the peace sign the paper.
I realized that as much as I may personally not like Fudge... No one in Ariel's family has ever trusted her to make her own decisions about life. That's my job. so damn it, I am going to be as supportive as she needs me to be. Having seen a lot more of Fudge lately, I can honestly say that this is my impression of the man: he is one of the most frustraiting, MALE, snarky and sarcastic, loving, generous, helpful, and open handed men I have ever met. He genuinely cares about Ariel, and wants her to have the best of everything in the world. He is also increadibly clumsy when it comes to understanding female emotions. their marriage won't be easy, but it's what she wants, so I'm going to do my best to be sure that Ariel has the best wedding ever. She deserves to be happy, and has decided that Fudge is the best man to make her so. 'nuff said.
...Besides, Mother and 'Tousan are active in marriage ministry/enrichment/communication stuff. maybe they can help with the whole "Stupid about women" issues Fudge seems to have.
