> Wow, I remember way back when you posted your personal ad in a thread - guess it worked! Congrats!

I just came back to say that I didn’t meet my husband through a personal ad. We actually met via a mutual friend last November at an Ohio State football game. The first thing he ever said to me was, “you’re beautiful.” Not “hello” or “nice to meet you”, just “you’re beautiful,” with this dumbfounded, poleaxed sort of look. It was all very cute. In February, we were engaged. In April, he moved from California back to Ohio to be with me. In July, we were married.

I don’t know - personal ads may work great for some people, but not me. I met a lot of people; some of whom became great friends that I’m still in contact with today. Some of the others, though… _shudders_ …that could be its own thread.

You look like that, are English, _and_ you’re blushing? You’re just trying to make yourself as cute as possible, aren’t you?

I have to imagine that would be an interesting thread… come on, you know you want to. Curious minds must know.

Time to pop my pic-post thread cherry (just minutes after getting pics emailed to me by my mom and popping my [photobucket.com](http://photobucket.com) cherry).

[Here’s Mrs. Survey and I at a recent family gathering.](http://s107.photobucket.com/albums/m313/Survey1215/?action=view&current=ms1.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch2)

Please, be gentle. Remember, the camera adds weight (though most of my damage comes from the weight you get at the White Castle).

So if I wait until this thread is six pages long, and _then_ I post, no one will actually look at my pictures…right?

[Me, wearing a sweater that I knit for my father.]([http://www.siliconashes.net/~imbrium/wp-images/Me](http://www.siliconashes.net/~imbrium/wp-images/Me) in Daddy’s Sweater.jpg)

[Me, dressed as a succubus.](http://www.siliconashes.net/~imbrium/wp-images/Succubus%20Close%20Up.jpg) (Safe for work, but may raise eyebrows.)

To be honest, I didn’t expect Dopers to be such a good looking bunch. 😉 (Should that go in the [Baffling Comments/Compliments thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=386094)?)

Love the succubus Kairos! quite um…well very good.

Also nice sweater. I know that can be a very time consuming task. If my daughter did that for me, Id be in 7th heaven. Im contemplating a pic of mrrealtime, possibly even mrs realtime…but I have been working to maintain a veil of secrecy or I’ll get pummelled for all my obnoxious posts. I’ll have to come to terms with it eventually.

Oky-doky. Here’s [me a couple years ago](http://community.webshots.com/photo/2926547250066280825JIsUjU) and here’s [me and my husband on our wedding day last September](http://community.webshots.com/photo/2467135730066280825BmbbIo).

I’m 33 now, but was 31 and 32 respectively in the pics.

Aw, shucks.

I was surprised not to see any cats there, actually, because I’d been told that the Coliseum area was full of furry beasts.

Yeah, we Dopers are hot. We should have a fundraising calendar or something.
