When Amy & I picked a date for the wedding, we had to accommodate my conference schedule, the weather in New Orleans, and our magazine & catalog deadlines. We settled on March 12: not too hot and humid, low chance of northeasterners getting derailed by snow, no conference for a week or so. It looked like a good date.
Since then, we discovered that our wedding night overlaps with both the premiere of The Sopranos AND Selection Sunday.
No one in Amy’s family will have a problem with this, but my brother and some of my friends will be praying for the uninterrupted functioning of their TiVos.
Ultimately the problem is that you’re from the new york/new jersey area and see professional sports–as opposed to the semi-professional programs in D1–as the only legitimate athletic contests in America. Humidity? Bah! The only reason you didn’t plan a June wedding was the fear of missing Tim Duncan and Rasheed Wallace in late June!!!
Give us call you when you can, Mumzer.
Trust me; until you experience New Orleans weather, you have no idea how much your clothes can stick to you.
Besides, I missed game 6 of Knicks-Pacers just so I could get my degree from St. John’s, back in 1995!
I sat in a plane with a bunch of yokels from Indianapolis for that game! BTW: it was game 7.
