Laurel Got Married!

My friend Laurel (a roommate from back in Hawaii) got married last month and she had a reception here in Utah yesterday.  I had really wanted to be there for her wedding, but it just wasn't meant to be.  Stupid jobs and vacation days and money and travel time.  I am glad I at least got to see her yesterday for a bit to say congratulations and give her a hug though.  Why do most of my good friends have to live so far away?
