 Topic: I'm married!
Posted: September 01 2010 at 16:15 |
Well, prog folks and prog gents and those of you just here for the free hors d'oeuvres, I have exciting news - my girlfriend of nearly five years, Bernadette, and I have recently got engaged!
We are both geeks so instead of going to a fancy restaurant to celebrate, we bought and built a house ... of Lego. I thought it was romantic that we started our engagement building something nice together but it is far from standard romance.

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

I am a firm believer in spending a few years together before you get married. Worked for us.

My sister is getting married in two months. I don't have the energy to think about another wedding at the moment. (Congratulations anyway  )

I wish you a long happy engagement without the need for the brutal ending that is marriage.
