Something else happened

Remember I said September 30th was the day, unless something else happened? Well, something else happened. T is working in Texas and the job site got hit by Ike. They thought it would be okay, but apparently not. It didn't help that a guy quit and another guy had to leave because his wife has to have surgery. So they are behind schedule, short-handed and now finding out that there were more problems than they were originally told.

So, no, I'm not getting married tomorrow. We thought T might be able to drive up tonight but he found out this morning that leaving is impossible right now. And truthfully, even if he had been able to, I wasn't really comfortable with doing things that way. Coming in early Tuesday morning, getting married, taking a quick nap and turning around to get back in time for Wednesday night did not seem like a great idea. So I called him about mid-morning and told him I'd rather wait. Turns out he was trying to figure out how to tell me we had to wait because they have run into some pretty serious problems at the job site and he can't leave. We talked about the situation for a bit and decided to hold off. I told him the next time he was home we would pick a day far enough in advance that we could actually plan something. And far enough in advance that his boss will be able to schedule someone else to work those days. I'm not really all that upset by the situation. The back and forth uncertainty was driving me crazy. Once the decision was made I felt a lot better. I took today off anyway just to get some thinking time and rest a little.

And no, I still won't agree to 9/11.
