And that’s no hyperbole.
It’s been a while since it happened, but it doesn’t make the sentiment any less amazing: she said yes! 
:eek: 
And when I say “she”, I am of course talking about the poster you all know as Heloise. We met in October of 2001, at the LA Dopefest. Ever since, the both of us have spent an ungodly amount of time aboard airplanes over the Atlantic to see each other. Soon all of that will end!
On Leap Day, we will be married in that Holiest of cities, Las Vegas NV. 
It will be a small, intimate ceremony. Afterwards, we’ll spend about a week together before I have to fly back to Holland. But we’re working on closing the gap for good, don’t worry.
So again, I say: I am the luckiest man in the world, for -through reasons unbeknownst to me- having this wonderful, caring, funny, sparkling, sweet and downright beautiful (in every sense of the word) girl agree to spend the rest of her life with me.
Those of you who have met us in person will agree that it is highly improbable for a fat and ugly bastard like myself to even get the time of day from a babe like Heloise, let alone develop a meaningful relationship. But as you can see, miracles DO happen.
I’m looking forward to spending the rest of our days together, and I can only wish for all of you to some day feel as lucky and happy as I feel right now.
