Aww… I’m so happy for you. Treat her like an angel, and she’ll do the same for you.

I was hit by love-at-first-sight the first time I laid eyes on Mr. smaje and he flashed me his gap-toothed grin. 8 years later and we’re still utterly, hopelessly, completely in lurve. 🙂

> One day I was performing at a gig in the park. When we went on break, this man came up to me and said their band was looking for a singer. There was an instant electrical connection. He was _such_ a hottie and the guitar player in our band knew him and said he was a nice person, so I agreed to check out one of their rehearsals.

> That night, after it was over, he called me. We talked until nearly dawn. He told me that there was just something about me and he knew that in some kind of way I was meant to be important in his life.

Congrats **Bass Chick** , that is awesome 🙂

I told my wife long ago that should she ever leave me, get run over by a dumptruck, get left on the reef by an irresponsible dive boat - whatever - that I would never date or marry again. I simply don’t believe it’s possible to replace a lifelong partner with a new model.

She, OTOH, says she’ll pull my plug, sign the DNR orders, and start looking for someone younger and richer on the way home from my funeral.😃

I wish you both the best of luck in the future.🙂

…as long as you share it with her first. Might I suggest a Cabernet '07 and a fireplace filled with oak, cherry, or if you are lucky, some apple wood?

_please don’t ever tell me if you did or didn’t; I’d like to think that you did. Its the romantic in me…_
