Why Aren't My feet Cold?
Posted by Amanda Collins
Reading through the comments on my last blog, I was stuck by one. Caroline asked me if I as nervous at all about my wedding. I was surprised by this, not because it's an odd question, but because I realized I have don't have anxiety about getting or being married.
Maybe it's because I have known Travis for so long. We first met in fifth grade, when only I thought of him as the annoying jerk who threw a dodge ball at my face in gym class and made me cry. I later learned that this was because he had a crush on me...way to show it.
Still, I can't get Caroline's question out of my mind. I felt like for some reason, I should be nervous about marriage. Shouldn't my feet be a little cold, or at least chilly?
My oldest sister, Danielle, is getting married in June after an almost 10 year engagement. The reason it has taken so long for the nuptials? Her boyfriend Dave is nervous. Not to be married, but to say vows "in front of people."
Kristin, my sister who is getting married in August, is always telling me how nervous she is for her big day. She is scared that something will go wrong, that she'll fall when she's dancing, or that getting cake smushed in her face will mess up her makeup. I think...who cares?
So I guess that's why I'm not nervous. I know that marriage is a big deal, but I don't think love is anything to be scared of.
