Sunday
4:00 am
Yeah, yeah, not a wedding picture. Here's the wedding week
from my (the bride's sister's) perspective.
It started
off on Sunday, August 3rd, wa-hay too early in the morning.
Saturday evening was our band's big square dance gig downtown.
Sunday afternoon was the wedding shower that Mom and I were
hosting. That left a tight turnaround and a 6:58 flight to
Minnesota.
This
is me on the train platform waiting for the Red Line to take
me to the Orange Line which would take me to Midway.
When
I got to the Orange Line stop, the station was closed!
I hollered
for the station attendant. I said, "The schedule said
the trains start at 4:30." It was about 5:00 am.
Attendant:
"Yes, on a weekday."
Me: *gasp*
That's right. It's Sunday!"
[I unintentionally said it in an overly-theatrical way, like
I just discovered the phenomenon of Sunday.]
I took
a cab.
