4:30 am on a Tuesday, it doesn't get much worse than this

OK, so it's actually 4:15, and Saturday. My wedding is in 12 hours and 45 minutes. I wish I wasn't wide awake. I'm also hungry so maybe I'll go poke around in the kitchen.

Rehearsal was fine, and I'm glad we practiced the processional and the general order of stuff, because suddenly I got *really* nervous standing up there. I'm sure I will today as well, but at least I'll be familiar with the idea of standing up there.

Rehearsal dinner at Shamiana last night was a lot of fun. People mingled, everyone seemed to like the food, and it was pretty relaxed and non-stressful. It went by really quick so I can only imagine that the Main Event will, as well. Since Shamiana is a popular place for Microsoft folks to eat, I also ran into someone I used to work with and it was a pleasant surprise. (hi jack!)

Last night after dinner, Asha and Sanjay came over to meet the Peanut and Spike. Tom and Erin did as well, and Tom hadn't seen Peanut since he was just a little dog in Tucson 2.5 years ago. Earlier in the day, Dave and Kim came over. It was nice to have a little bit of time to chat with folks. The house was quiet by 10pm so in theory we had enough time to get our beauty sleep. I really hope I can get back to sleep as tomorrow (today?) is going to be, unfortunately, a nap-free day. Hair and makeup starts at 11am. I've been to the spa/salon every day this week except Tuesday. Woo hoo.

Tomorrow night (tonight?) we'll be staying at the Hotel Monaco. The last time we stayed there was in 2000 for the Deloitte Christmas party when I lived in Tucson. Good times.
