And, of course, when she comes home at night, she doesn’t want to spend a lot of time on the computer. But fear not! I have no doubt that she’ll eventually be sucked back into this place. We all try to get away, but no one truly ever does. Especially, if they keep marrying other Dopers. That same nefarious trap into which **sperfur** and **withaK** fell! (Speaking of traps, **withaK** , I just got the 20th Edition of Trivial Pursuit, so I demand a replay!) 🙂 ---

Well that’s great to hear about \*\* auntie em\*\*. I know she was looking for a while. And now two dopers-in-love are united in domestic bliss. ---

So, on the future anniversaries, will the husband be rushing out elbows up, face mask in place to brave the crushing throngs of lunatic shoppers to buy an anniversary present for the Mrs. or a Xmas present? Congrats! May you never fight over the remote. ---

That’s it… I demand another Minnesota dopefest! NOW!!! Oh crap, I just know that came off as either bossy or desperate. Or both. When really, I’m neither. I’m just digging a deeper hole for myself, aren’t I? Fiddle sticks. ---

We made it home to Missouri. The kitties were sure happy to see us. The first thing **withaK** did when we arrived was hook up the Xbox, so now he feels at home. 😃 We survived our first marital crisis yesterday. We stopped in Macon to get gas last night and the car wouldn’t start again. Some wonderful people jump started it for us and we made it home. We had to coast the last block when the alternator finally gave up, but it took us the last 75 miles (minus 1 block). :eek: I’ve [uploaded a few photos](http://members16.clubphoto.com/michelle759912/1882355/owner-daea.phtml). I’ll upload more when I get them from the other cameras. ---

Thank you. Our photographer did a great job. Too bad we didn’t get pictures of her - she’s our cupid. Maybe the other photographer did. Cross your fingers! ---

Have you thought about making annual payments to said cupid? 😉 Just teasing with you. I am assuming things are still going well on day 5? ---

How do the kitties like their new daddy? I assume the pseudo-honeymoon is still on. Just one question…how many slices of pepperoni are on your pizza _now_? Hope you two have a great New Year and a fun-filled future together. Congratulations again. ---

Just one question…how many slices of pepperoni are on your pizza _now_?\*\* Jasper thinks his new daddy makes a great bed. He slept right on top of him for the past two nights. We lost track of the pepperoni slices a long time ago. My guess is somewhere between a truckload and a warehouse full. 😃 ---

Wowsers. I escape the board for a few months, to come back and find that random people are getting married willy nilly. 🙂 It couldn’t happen to a better couple of random people. Congratulations! Now that you’re married to a guy, how are you going to justify going to gay bars, sper? I suppose he was having almost as much luck at picking up guys as you were with girls, so that could work… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sperfur-became-mrs-withak-december-24-2003-thank-you-sdmb/220877.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sperfur-became-mrs-withak-december-24-2003-thank-you-sdmb/220877.md?page=4)
