As it were, I was up just in time to see Catherine Middleton get into Rolls Royce 1 along with her father for the drive to Westminster Abbey. I stood like a fool, about 3 feet from a 50" tv taking pictures with my husbands iphone. (as though there would be no photos to see after it were over..) I wept like a baby, as a very good portion of their wedding music was music from the Dow-Ward wedding. When she walked in to Perry's "I was glad" it very much so reminded me of our wedding...except we used Walton's "Antiphon". Blah, blah, blah.
As the coverage progressed, I all the sudden shot up...completely forgetting that I did in fact have to join the work force that morning by going to work.
When I arrived to work I flipped on NPR hoping to catch a glimpse at any wedding activity during the day. Every time NPR played the royal trumpet fanfare I sprung out of my seat like a jack in the box.
Needless to say, I'm completely enamored with this union, their nuptials, the fanfare and regalia.
Somebody may have to come pry me away from the television as BBC America and I have become one.
What a happy weekend, and in the words of Perry's anthem....I was glad!
