An Announcement!

[surrealestate]

We announced this on Facebook right after the fact (because chaiya tweeted it and also posted a photo, so we had to get on the ball to avoid getting totally scooped :), but for those who haven't seen it there, DD officially proposed Saturday night at the Arisia party we were hosting at Pi-Con, via adorably geeky video (ask to see it when you see one of us in person), and of course I said yes. :)

To make sure nobody feels left out of the discussion, I present a poll that embodies the quintessence of such an occasion. At least these days.

[Poll #1609680]

How about "Marriage is the tool of the patriarchy, so you can use it in deliciously transgressive kinky rôle-play"?

[28bytes.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!

[cos]

That took so long, I almost forgot you were still dating! Wasn't that something from the 90s? :)

Hetero marriage is soooo 20th century.

...Congratulations!!

I asked permission before tweeting it! You could've said no! ;)

Awesome!

Guess I'd better get my ass on Facebook. I created an account, but haven't yet done much with it.

One of the reasons I took the professional bartending class was because JB and ^^^ there have got the JP thing locked up, but I figured the other thing that costs a lot at weddings/receptions is the bartender ;-) So if you have anything that looks like a reception happening, I'm happy to offer my services! ;-)

Fah, with the institution of being the corrupt force of destruction that it is, how could I not support this.
>:-)

Srsly though, you two are full of awesome - I'm so glad to hear that you've made this choice. I am hopeful that you all will establish the new gold standard for how to do marriage.

I am totally amused at the number of people who "liked" my comment on facebook. (o:

but... all the rest too, of course.

AWESOMENESS! Wishing you a lifetime of it.

I think I'll go with A,B,C,D,E. And I was literally just wondering about an hour ago, "I wonder whether I've missed anything important by not checking Facebook in a few days..." :-)

[pywaket.livejournal.com]

Hurray and congratulations!

It's been nice seeing such a happy couple up close :-)

[doctordidj.livejournal.com]
