Not Your Day
Weddings are a big day for us women. Many of us have dreamed about the event since we could first pick up a Barbie Doll and have Ken carry her over the threshold of our Barbie house. I have a hope chest I stuck ideas and clippings in during my teenage years stashed somewhere in the house. Those are going to be some out of date ideas when I finally need them.
But what about our hapless groom. As a friend of mine says, he doesn't start thinking about it till the day he puts the ring on our fingers and then tries not think of it as much as possible. I never knew that my friend was basically pirating that saying till today when I found a old CD he'd given me a few years ago. Not Your Day... A Grooms Guide To The Most Important Day of Her Life by Rex Havens.
I don't know why I had never listened to it till today but puttering around the house getting ready for Christmas I decided to put it in the stereo and listen. I must say, it's hilarious! You can see and hear a few of the jokes from the CD at Rex Havens' website. Apparently he's let the CD go out of print, I couldn't find it anywhere. But he has a new one that looks just as funny: Everything I Needed To Know, I Learned From My Wife. If you get a chance check out the clips, they are very clean and oh so true. And maybe if enough express interest he'll sell the album on iTunes. It would make a great present to all the grooms out there.
