My little brother got engaged this morning. This comes after a year and a half of contemplating this decision. This is good news because 1. I will now have a little sister. 2. I will return to the States (D.C. area specifically) sometime in the next year for the wedding. I've only met Abby once, but I suspect as in other families I will be closer to her eventually and mostly know my brother through her as the official spokeperson and PR for the couple.
There is a bit of dread at having to return to the State for a wedding because I won't be located around my friends, and I will be the weird older sister who is unmarried with no date, unfashionable (Abby is a D.C. interior designer and fashionista), and lastly working in a dominantly male profession, I suspect I may be perceived as a lesbian. (am tempted to play this up).
Meanwhile, back at beach my friend Tony was asking yesterday if he could grab my ass (friends thought it was very respectful of him to ask) and calling to see if I wanted to spend a romantic evening at his place watching TV. He also invited Brazilian strippers to the party who arrived in thong bikinis.
I warned my brother that as a guest at his wedding I'm destined to find myself hanging out at the bar and mingling with his least mature, most intoxicated friends as this is the world I know.
