Always the Bridesmaid...wait...

So it is official as of yesterday - A asked me to be a bridesmaid for her wedding. I have been to three weddings my whole life, one as a young girl, one as a slightly older girl, and one as a young woman. I'm excited to be a part of the process. A is one of my closest and dearest friends, and I am so happy that she asked me to be a part of her special day. My friends K and H are also bridesmaids, so I think it will be a fun night for everyone.

I do have to say, though, that this feels like a definite 'grown-up' thing. This is a marriage - this is going to be for the rest of A's life, hopefully. This is something grown ups do, get married...with my happiness comes a little bit of nervousness. I feel like we are all getting to a point where we'll have to leave the part of life we bonded in behind and become adults. I hope all of our friendships survive this transition.

Speaking of growing up, my crush M that I work with is still simply a crush - no interaction that has led to anything else. He is 33, 11 years older than me, which seems insane to me but for some reason I get so fluttery and shy around him, which is really rare when it comes to guys for me. I'm sure he looks at me like I am too young, but I'm not feeling so young these days, so who knows?
