The Countdown to A Royal Wedding

Guess who took off from work to watch the Royal Wedding?!  ME!

I may not have an invitation to Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding but I definitely plan to watch it - all of it - including the pre-wedding and post-wedding coverage, beginning at 10 p.m. local time!  
I wasn't around for Prince Charles and Princess Diana's wedding but from all of the footage, and by what people have told me it was INCREDIBLE!  It was a once in a generation event: the crowds, the fanfare, and of course, the dress and incredible train!  

As a bride-to-be who is obsessed with everything wedding, and a person who has been bitten by the Royal Wedding bug, this is a wedding I cannot miss!
