Technically, you really didn’t. See, when you married the three of us on page two, Scotti had never proposed to Euty here and he didn’t propose to her until after you married us. According to what was said on page one, you can’t amrry two people until they agree so technically, even though Scotti mentioned being married to Euty on the top of page two, there was no propsal between them until Euty did it after the initial marriage of the three of us.

ANYWAY, I’m glad we are all three married to him now and all that is cleared up! This is the happiest day of my life!

Well, I have no objections, and I don’t think that we have to worry about room, what with the jello pit, and the trampoline, and such. I think we can figure something out… 😉

Congratulations! You’ve both gone and gotten married… I’ll pick up throwing the rice in your place. Maybe I should throw bird seed instead. Oh well, see why I’m still alone… Crunchy Frog even teased me by mentioning my name (well, my former name)… I’ll just be sitting here waiting…

Can I put in a request for a Knight in Shining Armor?

::joins Miss B. Haven at the bar (since it seems to have emptied out)::

::buys drinks for anyone (unattached) who walks in::

Make mine a double, and I brought a deck of cards to pass the time.

Ya know, maybe I should take the rice out of the box before I throw it? Nah, makes it more interesting to watch. Beats my cousin’s wedding where they had teeny bubble wands. Now _that_ was minutes of fun.

**fun2d8** is that you?

I must have missed your name change.  
We’ll see if **Nymysys** and **wyldelf** don’t mind sharing me anymore. There’s a couple others I may ask. 😉

OOOH! I love a dominant woman! 😃

[kneeling]  
Dear **Miss B. Haven** would you pay me the honor of giving me your hand in marriage?  
And is there anything else I can do for you while I’m on my knees like this? 😉

Guess that means I have no reason to propose, either. I was going to, just to see what you did.

MsRobyn, forgive me for forgetting you for the time being, and marry me? None of my virtual wives is named Robyn, which I think is something I need to remedy before very long.

Damn, leave for one day and my virtual husband becomes a trollop. I’m a little worried, here. Maybe I’ll look around for another husband, too.
