1K on UB and the Jellison Wedding in NC

I dont remember much from the 1K on UB, but I know I won a handful of coin flips to get the final table. I also know I got in my 15bb with JJ vs QJhh to get knocked out 7th. Outside of that I have know idea if I played well or not. A final table for a 1K online is always nice though given the strength of the fields.
Morgan and I went to Greensboro, NC from Thursday to Sunday for a wedding. One of Morgan's best friends from high school/college (Jane-Marie) was taking the plunge and marrying Brandon Ellison. I actually lived with Jane-Marie for 6 months after I graduated from college. She is an incredibely cool girl that deserves the best. In came Brandon and I was immediately impressed. He is a guy's guy that everyone likes being around. He seemed to be a perfect fit for Jane-Marie. Somehow he pulls of being a yoga enthusiest and has the capability to drink any bar out of beer (tough combo).
The weekend itself was a blast. The rehersal dinner was on the third floor of a bar complete with a pool table, darts and all the alcohol you could drink. Morgan ended the night by talking a guy and a girl to do a push up contest and then hopping on the back of the guy to make it fair. She of course fell twice, but managed not to flash anybody, because she is classy like that. Brandon's family was a treat. They joined the festivities and were very outgoing in meeting everyone. His mom was probably my fav. as she was upbeat the entire time, also she was phenominal dancer. The ceramony was just how I like em, short and sweet and even included the bride giggling through the line "till death parts us" in the vowels. The reception was at a contry club complete with wonderful food and a great band. I of course drank so much I convinced myself I was a good, make that great dancer. All the guests were into it as most of us made it past 1am in celebration. I was paying for it a little bit the next day, but it was a tremendous event. Congrats guys.
