I know this is GD and all, but I would like to congratulate Matt & Potter and Mrvisible & his partner (who, by the way, needs a nickname) on their upcoming nuptials.
WOOHOO!
May your love grow and flourish for all of your days.
Shirley you’re not serious!
Thanks irishgirl, we’re sort of engaged to be engaged at the moment as I’ve not done down-on-bended-knee-in-a-romantic-setting things. Yet 
When we do finally make it down the aisle, it will be due in part to matt’s incredible work today. So terrifically proud of him.
I’m surprised it took until Torgo’s post to bring up the obvious in this thread.
And don’t call me Shirley.
Shirley Ujest hasn’t been part of this thread yet! 
On a more serious note, matt, you deserve the kudos of every right-thinking person for that. We can argue all we care to – but you’ve taken a practical step towards bringing what we’re arguing about into fruition. (No pun intended!) I thank God that there are people like you around to do the hard work that’s needed.
Heh. Should probably wait until one of us finally pops the question but thank you, sweetie. We hope it does
heh, that was to irishgirl. But thank you too, Polycarp. I do my best (or more usually, get railroaded into having to do my best ;))
FWIW (time to brag):

[li] jeremy evil and I plan on getting a civil union. We just don’t know when yet.[/li]
[li] Regardless of this, as of December this year, we’ll be recognized as common law spouses in Quebec. I plan on extending my medical & dental benefits to include him.[/li]
[li] We’re going to do the power of attorney thing so that if either one of us were to become incapacitated, the other would make the decisions without fear of parents or family stepping in.[/li]

Well, don’t I feel all single…
Esprix
you can be a bridesmaid
You should let Esprix be Shirley the Bridesmaid.
