I got the worst news yesterday at work! A dear friend of mine that has been like a big brother to me for a number of years let me know that he might be able to make it to the wedding due to a work project. We are both bummed out at the idea of him not being able to make it. We haven't had a chance to see each other in about 4 years (he is in New Jersey, me in Arkansas and work and other obligations don't give us much time to plan a proper vacation to visit).
But there is a possible silver lining, his boss is working with him per his project timeline to see if he can be able to travel for the wedding! If it works out, I am SOOOO going to send his boss a gift basket to personally thank them for letting him take the time off to come for the wedding.
