Royal Friday

Ok, I know a lot of people are over hearing about the Royal Wedding, but now that it's happened, I'm kind of intrigued. I was listening to the recap on NPR on the way to work and it sounded lovely. They actually like each other, unlike William's parents. I'm also seeing pictures and they're kissing and stuff. Kind of cute. Even Google went all Royal Wedding on us. So I thought I would share some photos on this glorious day.

There are plenty more photos here.

What's In a Name?

The royal wedding is almost here and of course that means talk about it alllll over the internet. I posted the pizza from Papa Johns, the LA Times has a designated section talking about the wedding and things you can do in America to prepare, Ellen Degeneres keeps talking about it. It’s just insane. I don’t really care about it. I might take a peak at the wedding, but I’m not going to wake up at 1am to watch it live. Sure it’s interesting to keep an eye on because royalty doesn’t exist in America so seeing other royalty is kind of cool, but that’s kind of where it ends for me. But for one girl named Kate Middleton, it may never end. This girl in Massachusetts is getting hounded because her name is Kate Middleton as well. People keep asking her to talk in a British accent. Facebook even deleted her account and untagged her in all of her pictures because they thought she made a fake account. Oy vey. I guess there are at least 3 more Kate Middleton’s as well. One in Australia and 2 more in Britian. Talk about a popular name. At least the Kate Middleton in Mass is taking advantage of the press. She will be in a bike tour in July for multiple sclerosis and she promised she would ride a tandem bike with a Prince William look-a-like if everyone would help her raise $10,000. That’s kind of awesome.

Royal Pizza

This royal wedding nonsense has gotten way out of hand. There are tours to see Kate’s childhood home, but the tour guides aren’t even allowed to point out which home was actually hers. I heard they don’t even know which one belonged to her and her family. There are specials on TV allll the time. I mean, leave these people alone. My company is even broadcasting the wedding live online. Again, too far. Yesterday morning, things went a little further. Papa John’s Pizza has a pizza dedicated to the wedding. Yup. The pizza shows William and Kate’s faces made out of olives and ham and all of the above. I mean, it’s well done, but come on! Is this really necessary?
