…and probably not much more today. I’m actually going to a wedding!!!

Don’t be surprised at my attendance at a wedding at my age. Be astonished at the wedding of two of my friends, both in their late seventies, getting married —for the first time!

Samuel Johnson commented on a second marriage as the triumph of hope over experience—something like that, can’t look it up right now. Well, surely a first marriage for two people is the triumph of hope.

More later, probably tomorrow. The wedding is aat 5:30, with reception and dinner to follow, so I’ll be late.
