Why do ppl have to get married?
An old classmate of mine called me a coupla days ago. She's getting married soon, she's making a list to send out invitations so she needs my address. So there's this whole forced conversation going on: how are things? does she have a gown? does she have an apartment? where are they living? is she excited? etc. etc. etc. then the talk turns to me. how am i doing? what am i doing etc. you know the drill.except nobody cares. i haven't spoken to these ppl since high school. Heck, I barely even talked to them in high school. It was really very nice all this time that i could put these ppl out of my mind, and forget they existed. All of a sudden they decide to get married and they just pop up in my life out of nowhere. (I know it was probably just as akward for her as it was for me, but so then hey, why do it? )
I bet you, if ppl never got married, you'd never hear from them again.

no- you'd hear from them after they graduate from college- when they want you to send them a gift... nice blog! looking forward to reading more non-cucumber-related random stuff!!
oh is that how it works? none of my friends have graduted from college yet so i don't know. thanks for reading and commenting.
So, rumor has it a have a new favorite blog.
To answer your question, um, I'd say to have children. I think if Judaism/society viewed having children out of wedlock as ok, not many people would commit.
And, I vote against BB's ban on cucumbers. They make great gifts. Hmm, the perfect Shabbos gift?
Hey Josh, thanks for visiting my fledgeling blog. yeah i know why ppl get married. it's just the whole wedding thing has all these rules and stuff so you like have to invite all these ppl who you don't care about and who don't care about you. It's very exhausting.
Cucumbers are fine, usually. BB and I are just boycotting temporarily.
At least you get a call. I have to find out from onlysimchas that my former classmates are engaged and not only that, that I was the only one still in town who wasn't told about it in time to go to the l'chayim. Then again, I'm sure they all know I wouldn't show up anyway. Whatever, I'm rambling.
Remember all the free food that people get to enjoy because of weddings. If not not for shidduch dates and weddings women would go hungry.
Apparently this is not blogger etiquette But I don't care.
