Fine at the ceremony. Hard at the reception when the band played slow songs and couples stood up. Hid in the garden with cake.

Not sad about it exactly, more like noticing it. The restaurant staff recognise me now which feels like both progress and not.

Not because I didn't want to say something. Nothing I thought of felt interesting enough to share. So I just watched.
