the wedding that destroyed the universe.

Be sure to get a receipt. Paperwork is very important when there's been an apocalypse.

Mine is not the elopement you are looking for...

Nice pictures, amych! (I was a little distracted by the hail.)

So far my day can be summed up as

Me: Don't do that, it won't work that way.

Them: I did that and it didn't work.

Me: That's because it won't work that way . insert explanation about the chaos that is the astronomers' brains.

Them: But it doesn't work!

Me: Do it this way. insert explanation v2 about the chaos that is the astronomers' brains.

Them: I did it this way and it worked but if I did it that way it didn't work.

Me: ....

Them: ???? !!!!

Me: slowly starts typing v3 of the explanation about the chaos that is the astronomers' brains.

You know, I hear Vegas is nice in mid-September.

damn, I don't think I have a receipt. I guess that means no returns.

YAY Elopement! Was anyone else there or was it just the 2 of you? When is your big part-ay? Am I crazy or were you planning a wedding before, or was that just planning the par-tay?

Dammit, everyone should have a FAQ!

I think I got a receipt. I know I have three marriage certificates.

Mine is not the elopement you are looking for...

Oh, okay then.

::wanders off::

So -- I've been informed by guys at the centre that injuries are surefire women attractors (and injured guys with accents pretty much have to beat the chicks off with a stick which looks really quite porny now that I've typed it out, so give me a couple seconds to clean my brain). I mentioned that I wasn't sure I could work the black eye the same way -- that the idea of a fight-injured woman being more attractive was kinda weird.

Yet they assured me that it was perfectly normal and not a sign of a wifebeater in search of a wife.

I get the injured guys are hot thing -- there's an element of the strong made weak and needing to be nurtured back to strength, there's the "how brave a warrior!" thing -- mostly in line with traditional male roles -- you don't need to know the guy to start applying those ideas to him.

For a chick, I'm thinking, you either get the white knight reflex, or the "hey! I want to play too!" reaction. If you know them, then maybe the female version of the guy paragraph.

Weird, really. Though I have gotten compliments from guys on it so far (this is a good one, really -- nice colour and spread across the cheekboned), including one very simple "it looks good on you" which just goes to show it's not only Jack that I don't know.

It takes a unique person to consider bruises a fashion accessory.

I hope it's not too painful.

I got no receipt, but I think 19 years has already voided hte warrenty, so I'm stuck with him.

Oh amy, you've made my allergies act up. How great! You both look so happy. Also? Your dh is a cutie.
