Day 130: Well, Finally I have a POA that will make me have a husband and maybe a new grandmother who gives me $50 for graduation

Well, a life just seems so much more bearable and interesting when said life's owner has a "POA" or "Plan Of Action" in said owner's life on how to live it. And this Orchard has just about had enough of sitting alone every night not being able to consistently use her computer and not watching tv because of the bad cable service, and not having friends, and this Orchard now has a POA that will change her life!

And so my POA is simply this: I will attend a wedding and find someone who wishes to marry me. I have decided on this course of action because it seems the story goes that when someone is looking for a good time in life, if that someone attends a wedding she or he is not invited to, it is just a riot and people always find funny things to happen, and meet people, and get free food and laughs, and often people at the wedding even think that the person not invited is an old relative or other such nonsense, and said non-invitee might even get some money for her graduation if the elderly people think she is a relative who just graduated.

Well, I am hoping it will work out just like this, and so I have checked out the internet sites for weddings and it tends to be the case that there is a wedding going on in Michigan this weekend where the bride is just so cute and fun looking, and she likes hand-made pottery and even registered something called a "bridal registry" at Macy's and Bed, Bath, and Beyond. Which is rather nice to let people know the kinds of gifts that one might like to receive. But I decided to go to Pier 1 and purchase just a beautiful salad bowl and servingware to go with it, because the bride also mentioned that she likes wooden utensils, and why not a
wooden salad bowl to go with?

And I will wrap it up in glossy magazines with pictures of diamonds and articles about "
is he really your mate for life?" and make little glitters on it, as I do like glitters, and I will even sing to the bowl tonight to get it in shape for the long 12 hour drive to Michigan tomorrow. And I am pleased that the group rate that the bride reserved at the hotel is still in effect so close to the wedding, and I really just am so grateful that the bride was kind enough to post this information to the public domain.

So tomorrow begins my journey of my trip and I am just so excited to finally meet that special someone and to feel connected and loved again at a wedding, but I am only nervous the bride will not like the color of my salad bowl gift.

Love,
Orchard

OD,
you are welcome at my home also..(but with a present in your hand) :))
I was down there in NY and then to Niagra for the long weekend. Those places are really nice.

In the meantime lemme figure out where is 'your' Shell gas station here in Boston :)

Hey Orch!

I still have no idea what you're talking about but I love the way you say it.

Sorry you were confused by my lack of showering lately. And I thank you for your concern. But don't worry. When inspiration (or perspiration) strikes I will shower again.

When's the next barbeque? How's Mike face?

Love,
The Show

Thank you all for your wonderful support!

Alejo, you are quite kind to say nothing can go wrong! I always admire your positivity toward my real world adventures.

Aswin, thank you so much for your hospitality and I am glad that you have enjoyed Niagara Falls, and i wonder how different it is from India where you used to live. And I know your POAs will work too and the fact that you have moved from a great distance is such an accomplishment, as well.

Marc, you are quite nice in how you like how I say things, and I am happy to see I got you to make a post which is quite nice now and then. I am not sure about "Mike's face" or the barbeque, but I am so glad that if you are inviting me to one and I do hope that Mike's face heals, if you have injured it.

Justin, yes, POAs are just the thing to have these days, and it sounds like you have more than you realize.

Javafoofoo, thank you for your luck and XOXO and i appreciate it all and did think about how you wished me luck at one point when I had to make a brave move in order to get something cool.

love always,
orchy
