Second Chances

My brother-in-law is very serious about his current girlfriend.  In fact, he has told us several times now that she’s the one, and that he’s waiting for the right opportunity to propose to her.  I keep asking my wife if they’re engaged yet, and finally today she asked why I’m so frantic about this.  I said that I’m antsy to finally experience the Greek wedding that was stolen from me…to stand at the altar and be able to look around at what’s going on around us, to taste a Greek buffet, to eat a wedding cake, to enjoy dancing a Greek dance with no inhibitions, to let loose without all eyes on me,


…and to actually be sober enough to remember the entire thing.
