Many congrats to both of you. And it is no surprise to me either. I think you make such a great pair, **Zy** and **Bob**. I will have to look at the pic whenever LJ comes back up; it seems to be completely down right now.

Btw, **Bob** , does this mean you and I will be related soon? 😉  
And when is the **B** ig **D** ay? Decided on one yet?

_WHACK_

Ouch! Hey, I was just kiddin’! Take your time, take your time! Geesh!

Darn it Bob! Did you tell me you were going to do this before you left? Sheesh! Surely I’m not that inattentive! Sasserfrassin! Congrats buddy! Should I tell everyone or wait til you get back on Tuesday so you can tell them yourself?

You better not have told me and me have missed it! That would suck! _frown_ Does anyone else know?  
and for those who don’t know, Bob and I work together and I am covering his shift while he is away. 9 years ago I was his student assistant. Good grief man! We’ve been working together almost a decade! How do we stand it??

Cheers mate, see you Tuesday!

Congratulations to both of you! I’ve met **rjk** a couple of times, but never **Zyada** … I’m sure you two will be very happy together. Best wishes and congratulations. 🙂

oh… and to echo **zoogirl** : will I have to start watching the _Vancouver Sun_ or the _Province_?

Thanks for all the good wishes, everbody.

Gail at work (the lady I’ve been hitting on for years) is SO jealous! Oh, well, she has plenty of time yet to make me a better offer. Too bad she’s madly in love with her husband. 😉

I posted to **Zy’s** LJ, but what the heck…I’m SDMB fambly, too, so congrats!

As I’ve always said ever since she got up and belly danced at the NY RenFaire, she’s both totally cool and totally hot.

Many years of happiness and love to you!

Well! I finally got back to this thread! 🙂

First, thanks to everyone for their kind words. It really means a lot to us. Since LJ is still wonky, here is the original picture: [http://pages.prodigy.net/zyada/\_images/TheRing.jpg](http://pages.prodigy.net/zyada/_images/TheRing.jpg)

Comments:

**astro** - :groan:

**Ringo** - It was a fateful weekend, wasn’t it?

\*\* djxiii\*\* - :waves: Hi, Don! Give Bob some grief for me!

**Morgainelf** - Shhhhh… 😉

**Dave** - :smooch:

Frequently asked Questions:

_What kind of stone is that?_  
It’s a London Blue Topaz.

_Where are y’all going to live?_  
Let’s see. I have a four bedroom house, he has a one bedroom apartment. And Mom threatened to move in if I moved away from here.

I think we’re going to live here in Texas!

_When are y’all going to get married?_  
As soon as I can arrange it… after his divorce is final. Don’t ask me when _that_ will happen - we’re talking about Canadian beauracracy here!

_Where are y’all getting married?_  
Tentatively, here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

Any more?
