An Invitation
from Brad Edgington
CC. ForgetMagazine
Close friends, irritants, Greek Americans, uncle, and sister:
I have finally seen the dark of night. I gave Tiff a ring and
she gave me a kiss. She is wearing the ring, signifying her
acceptance. Not only do I want to inform you of this transaction,
but also I want to invite you to the wedding in December.
We will wed in one of the following three locations:
Cuba, Mexico, or Hawaii (though we could pay tribute to Dave
Eggers's Will and Hand, and touch down in all three locations).
You will need to read some anti-cretin literature prior to the
event, otherwise simply bring your bodies, souls, and healthy
livers. I will inform you of the specific date and location
as soon as possible.
I realize that some of you will not be able to pry yourselves
from the absurdity of day to day survival at this time of year
(Christmas), to travel great lengths to see a rodent get married
for a second time. Nevertheless, though it may have a maudlin
ring and evoke images of Abraham and his posterity, you are
the chosen people, you are the people that I would love to have
present. Details to follow.
Brad Edgington
is a long time irritant.
