Current mood:  restless
There I was sitting in a small waiting area in a fushia bridesmaid dress that was a few sizes too big.  I was waiting to get fitted for my dress for my best friend's wedding.  Two of the semstresses didn't come to work that day, so my wait was two hours!  I was in bridesmaid hell in the midst of David's Bridal! I was surrounded by happy brides-to-be and their mothers, grandmothers, sisters, friends...you name it...all in a tizzy.  All around me I heard voices of chatty women with "ohhs" and "ahhs" and screams of joy.  I thought I might break out in hives! Next to me was a young and very thin bride and her mother. She hadn't even graduated from college yet, and there I sat, in my 30's with no husband, no engagement ring, no boyfriend even.  It's hard to feel good about that when EVERYONE around is truly on the brink of marriage!  I just can't get into the excitement of a wedding.  I didn't ask, "can I see the ring?"...Like all the other brides waiting to get fitted did. I really didn't care!  But I had to stay there and do my duty.  I am normally happily single.  I don't want to settle just to say I am "married."  But you can't help but feeling like the odd man out when you are surrounded by a flock of future wives!  I just kept thinking, this has got to be every single woman's nightmare!  ...But I survived!
