The Lady bless your days and your nights, The Lord bless your summers and winters, The Elements bless your coming and going, The Universe bless your friendship and love. And may the day you wed be the worst day of your marriage, so each day after it is better than the last! ---

Why _ **Sofa King** _, you naughty boy. I don’t think that Ashcroft swings that way anyway, and besides, I’m getting married 😃 . Thank you so much to everyone for your warm wishes! I just have to look at this thread when I start reading about how awful many people think I am for wanting to get married, and I know that there are people out there who don’t think that! It has been wonderful to recieve well wishes from everyone! Mr. Jeeves also wants to thank everyone, he read this thread and he said it makes him feel positive about the direction all this is going in. Thank you so much! Thank you everyone, and lets hear a great big WHOOPEE!! for everyone getting married soon! I never realized how much marriage meant to me until it was within my grasp. So thank you for the well-wishings, it has touched my heart. I truly feel part of the SD community now. Jeeves PS Anyone else going to San Francisco and getting married? I can’t be the only one of the teeming millions who is going up there. Come out, come out, wherever you are! ---

Congratulations! I’m still trying to talk my boyfriend into making me an honest man. That’s gonna take a lot more than a certificate, though… May you have the happiest marriage imaginable. ---

Good on ya! Hee…I was in SF Saturday for the orchid expo, I swung by city hall hoping to see some of this history in the making and maybe spread some cheer by congratulating people on their nuptuals, but when I got there I realized they don’t do civil ceremonies on the weekends. 🙂 So I’m sending my pentup goodwill your way. ---

You must be so excited! Finally! You will get to perform the “Marriage act”! I think you’ll find that it was worth waiting. Don’t be scared. When a boy bee and another boy bee love each other very much it’s o.k. for them to do these things 9once they’re respectably married, that is!). Congrats!
