So Weddings Make Me Vomit

But not really.

This weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to be the best man in a good friends wedding. The wedding was not terrible. In fact as weddings go it was quite nice. There were no major failings of any person(s) that would make this wedding fall short. It was good.

Being the best man I had to give a speech. So I used a quote that I had heard in another speech to be the crux of the toast. From Eve's Diary by Mark Twain, Adam is looking over Eve's grave and says, "Wherever she was, there was Eden."

After saying my goodbyes to everyone at the reception, I sat down in the Aveo (the rental car) and I had a massive migraine. My head was in excruciating pain. Driving down the road Josh Smith and I realized that Chad had left his toiletry in my car. Chad was heading in the opposite direction. So I pulled off and left the toiletry at a gas station for Chad to pick up. Unable to drive anymore I had Josh take the wheel and after a little 1/2 hour break we started down the road. About 15 minutes later I had Josh pull the car over so that I could vomit, and vomit I did.

In the last 10 years I have vomited 2x both coming after a wedding.

Well, that is all I had to say.
