Yay! Glad to know the Halloween goodies brought happiness! I have yet to receive the invite but I'm sure it will arive any day now. I watched Office Space this weekend and couldn't help but think of all the ways in which you pointed out the superiority of 9 to 5. I think I'll be renting that very soon!

Re: broom-jumping: Not that you need my agreement, but I'm here to say that at least one of us white middle-class straight people knows how right you are. Of course. What in the world are people thinking, is all I can say after the fact. It's amazing how the cultural appropriation gets disguised as "honoring diversity."

i've done some online research about "jumping the broom"... from what i've read, jumping the broom has roots in both west africa and celtic traditions. although some sources, attribute jumping the broom to having roots in slavery in america. i've got contradicting info at hand, so i don't know. also from what i've read... the broom often signifies the hearth, the home and the couple symbolically jumping into their new life together. said couple at recent wedding incorporated the broom as a representation of the hearth and as a part of a way to create their own type of wedding/handfasting apart from traditional, patriarchal models. i think that sometimes their can be awkwardness in progression, as people strive to create ritual and symbolism for themselves apart from traditional,partriarchal ones. in that process perhaps there's a sort of patchwork effect, of drawing from a variety of other traditions and backgrounds. and yes, i'm white. and yes, i'm a progressive forward thinking person who strives for racial-sexual-gender equality and all of that. so i'm just creating some additional dialogue on this issue...

I so agree with you about songs that should never be played at a wedding! What could people be THINKING with songs like "Thank Heaven for Little Girls?" Guess it just proves that people, once again, are idiots . . . except for you and me, of course. But I'll tell ya, "Stand By Your Man" sung by Lyle Lovett has an almost campy value . . .
