Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

…but…

I just got married!!! And I gotta share my giddiness with you guys.

This is the second time for both of us, so we waited until we found someone we could stand being around forever before we committed marriage again. Anyway, we ran off and did a quickie civil ceremony (to minimize the fuss and planning involved), so consider this xeno’s Virtual Wedding Reception

There’s an open bar in the back, a band on stage (playing whatever you’d like to hear) and the buffet table’s over in front of the giant ice sculpture of Captain Beefheart. (Hey, it’s my virtual reception; get your own damn ice sculpture if you don’t like it!) Hit the bar as often as you want, but be careful with the boiled shrimp and the crab paté after the ice starts to melt.

Oh, and if you’re looking for the bride and groom, we’ll be the ones laughing hysterically at the couples trying to look cool while they dance.

congrats! I don’t dance - not even the Chicken Dance, but I’ll have a few shrimp and drink a toast to ya!

Fantastic! Congrats! I got married in January, and I’m still giddy.

Oh, and we didn’t dance at our own wedding, so we’re sure as hell not going to dance at yours.

Champagne? I’d love some. Got any pastry on that buffet table?

4

I don’t dance, but I’m sure my virtual wife Palmyra and virtual friend Skyslash can figure something out.

You can watch them as they struggle. She’s 5’2.5" and he’s . . . well, taller than that.

Thanks FCM and Ceejaytee! Don’t worry 'bout the dancing; the wife and I will be making fools of ourselves on the dance floor soon enough.

Oh, and there’s plenty of pastry; just ask the virtual caterer if you don’t see what you’re looking for.

Well, congratulations! (And don’t be so shy I almost missed this thread. You need to get a mod to add “but I got Married” to the title.)

Hope you dance a long time :slight_smile:

Like, groovy, Dude. Congrats, xenophon.

Allow me to add my virtual congrats!!
Now if you’ll excuse my virtual lack of manners, I’m alot more fun when I’m virtually wasted! And virtual dancing is pretty much virtually guaranteed!!

10

Congrats…

Now where is that bar? 5-10 Bud Lights and we’ll be getting jiggy.

When’s the virtual Grand March??

11

congratulations, may y’all have many happy years.

12

Congratulations, hope it lasts forever.

I’ll be the one shaking her ass in the leather pants, right next to the bar.

(In my virtual world, I’m old enough to drink, ok?)

:slight_smile:

13

Congratulations!

Hope you are even happier at your 50th anniversary than you are today!

Now down to the IMPORTANT stuff-when do we get to meet your lovely bride, and when is she going to register?

:slight_smile:

Best wishes for a wonderful life together~

Congratulations, best wishes, and many happy anniversaries to you both!

And may you have many years of happiness.

<pant pant pant>

Sorry gang, been on the dance floor all night —boy, that woman can move!— and haven’t checked the virtual guest book. Thanks iampunha, Sangria, MysterEcks, Blue Twilight, dragonlady, Sledman, rocking chair, Nacho4Sara, Scotticher, DRY and Spider Woman!

I’d like to get my witty and intelligent wife to register, but she’s not interested at this point. (Maybe when she finds out I’m posting about her, she’ll decide valor’s the better part of discretion…) (Or something.)

What’s the music at this here reception? <sees ice sculpture of Captain Beefheart in the corner> Now how are we supposed to dance to that?

Anyway, congrats xenophon!
