Wedding Crashers: The "Behave Yourself" Edition

So my best friends are getting married next year. It's a happy thing. Except that it makes me think towards next year and the fact that if I don't have a date for the wedding (which will include both myself and my ex in the wedding party and possibly, as his date, the 21 year old skank he left me for) I may go absolutely insane.

Leighann knows this is bothering me and it must really be on her mind because she called me with this fantastic dream she had last night. Here goes:

The three of us were sitting at their kitchen table doing invitations and she decided to be sneaky and write a letter to Rob inviting him to the wedding (I'm imagining this is like when Edward invited Jacob to the wedding. And Jacob showed up, so....). She went into great detail...she remembers exactly what the letter said and is supposed to be writing it down for me as we speak. Anyway, so she writes this letter and sends it to him, but doesn't tell me so that I don't obsess over it for 6 months. Well, something comes in the mail for her one day, and, oh my god, it's a "Brittany Spears can't be at the VMA's, but she sent this video acceptance speech" tape. From Rob, to me. Leighann said that with his sexy, melt in your mouth accent, he said "hi Meg" and then went on to apologize for not being able to make it. I am died.

Ok, so flash forward to the wedding (this is an effing epic dream, isn't it?). We're dancing to Thriller, drinking some wine coolers, eating fondue (I added that part...that's what we're doing in my imagniation) and this "big burly fucker" comes up to Leighann and taps her on her shoulder. She said she was excited, but also thought she might get tased. He says he needs to speak to her and leads her outside to a limo. *Gasp* It's Rob. He showed up. And he kissed her on her cheek (bitch. But I guess it was her dream). She's runs back into the reception and gets "all the single ladies" (haha. I know, right?!) to line up facing her. She tells us that there's someone special here, but he only has time for one dance and he's going to choose one of us to dance with. He comes up from behind (haha again), taps me on my shoulder and then fucking (this deserves a "fucking") whispers in my ear "Behave yourself. We only have 15 minutes and your dad is watching." AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! It was just me and Rob and Brad and Leighann dancing, and as they came by us, Leighann said to me, "I know this is your moment and shit, but you better give me a high five, because, who's your bitch?!?!"

And *end dream*. How amazing is that? I love my best friend for having a dream like for me. She really is my bitch.

Ok...(this is future me. I've had this saved as a draft for a couple of days). Leighann managed to remember word for word what her note said (cause it's all true, natch). Here is is:

Dear Rob,

My name is Leighann N******. I am getting married on September 10, 2010. Enclosed is an invitation for you, though I'm sure even if you wanted to, you will not be able to attend. Before I make my request, let me give you a little bit of background.

My best friend, and godmother to my son Landen introduced me to Twilight right after I gave birth. I went from working full time to being a full time mom and I needed something keep me from going stir crazy. I was immediately hooked. Whenever we just sit around having down time, Meg and I watch Twilight. Meg is definitely Team Edward, to say the least.

You see, Meg and Matt were together for almost seven years. Though the relationship was somewhat emotionally abusive, it broke Meg's heart to learn that Matt was leaving her for a younger girl he met at work. With time and tears, Meg has done her best to be civil towards Matt. Because they were together for so long, our friends are mutual, so they see each other often. Like myself, Meg turned to books to keep herself grounded; that's why she recommended Twilight to me in the first place. Then one day...she saw you! She absolutely adores you! Blogs, interviews, fan fiction, pictures...anything Rob, Meg's on it! It's not as bad as a teenage girl crush on you, but it's close!

Recently, Brad and I have started to plan our wedding. Meg is one of my bridesmaids and of course Brad asked Matt to be a groomsman. We did promise not to pair them together, don't worry! So my request is this. You know when someone's on tour, or filming and they can't make an awards show, they send a video message? Yeah, I know you do. Well, if you could send a video message of you telling Meg you're sorry you couldn't make it, but you would have loved to be there with her, or something along those lines, I would be in debt to you always. It's my wedding day, so I will obviously be happy, but I know Matt being there with his new girlfriend is still going to hurt Meg and she'll try to play it off for my sake.

This would be the best wedding gift I could ever receive, making my best friend happy even if it's just for a minute. Please consider it, at least! I'll have my fingers crossed!

Thank you,

Leighann N****** (soon to be) R******

P.S. Sorry for the sloppy letter. I had to write quick and stick the envelope in the mail before Meg noticed. I didn't tell her I was writing you, just in case I don't get a response! :(

PLEASE FAN CLUB, PASS THIS LETTER ON TO ROB!!!!!!

And, *wipe tear*. I know, it's kinda sappy and makes me look like a gigantic, lame, lonely loser. But hey, it's a nice sentiment and I'll take a pity video from Rob any day of the week.

So there's an intimate look into my life for the whole interweb to see. If you see Rob, tell him his invite is in the mail. And that I can't promise I'm gonna behave.

I'll see you next September. And I promise to wear this.

Leave me some love. Validation. Reason for living. Confirmation that I am not, in fact, a lunatic. Ok, that might be stretching it.
