So since last I commented here on this little wacky corner of the world, I was elated over the fact that my gal pal was willing to spend the rest of our lives putting up with me. Of course when you've got family and friends like I have, who needs enemies? Most of comments have come in the form of smart alec barbs about my freedom disappearing by saying "I do"... Most were the usual stock comments:
"now who's wearing the pants in the relationship?"
"say goodbye to sports..."
"I can't wait to see you two shopping in the mall and you're holding her purse"
"marriage is a 3 ring circus... engagement ring, wedding ring, and suffering"
I just roll my eyes and shake my head and laugh thinking about their attempts to put a scare in me. Well, actually, it's more just them teasing and using humor to congratulate me... They love my gal pal and think that I went way out of my league... That last part is absolutely true. She is way out of my league. But I always tell her that I'm glad that she is missing that one brain cell that allows her to have very discriminating taste in men...lol

You are a kind man, Mik. You conceive things in a loving way. You show care, concern & gratitude for family & friends very well. The love you two have for each other is enviable...but that is because both of you are such wonderful people, not because of a missing brain cell.
Congrats again. ~Mary
Very pleased that things are going along so well for you both, Mik. Teasing is a nice form of flattery.
I say it is ABOUT TIME! Congrats and all the best to you both. - Barbara
