Writes..."Rants About...Weddings"

"i noticed something about myself at a wedding i went to yesterday. i don't know if it's because i write or because i figure when i get married i'll be more than a little emotional and have a few things to say, but i came to the conclusion that a wedding where the couple haven't written their own vows seems lacking in some sense. almost as if i can't relate to them, like there is no connection because the words they're speaking, despite still being beautiful, aren't as heartfelt. i can't explain it but that's how i feel. probably because my vows are going to be my opus magnum."
