My house is cold. I think I best go to bed. Wild Animal Park tomorrow. Bounce bounce bounce. gah.
I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Is it Keeping the Faith ita? I love the "Smooth" montage in that flick.
For what it's worth, none of the weddings I have officiated have ever included either 'obey' or 'death.' Even the most traditional couples don't ask for it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My wedding could have included "we've replaced his wedding vows with Folger's Crystals, let's see if he notices" for all I know, it all being in Mandarin.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I hate buying music and then realizing I already owned it. It's happened ... well more than twice. Clearly *I* am the fool in that situation.

I've done that with board games. In my defence, while waiting for the first one to arrive.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's worse, not better.
Bonny--called it in one. The movie is giving me great squick, though. I have old-friend-kissing issues, and breaking-the-vows issues.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I believe ours included 'til death. But I don't remember a lot of it -- the whole getting married in vegas on our way to CA didn't really lead to lots of choices - or even interest in the details.
I didn't get married until I actually already felt married. for me -- that means life partner - -and the point of getting legally married was to make sure the State and everyone else recognized it.

Score!
While I don't have the old-friend squick, I'm with you on the breaking the vows thing. But there are other things I just love about that movie. Milos Foreman chief among them. And Ann Bancroft and the electronics store guy and Cuddy! I have a great fondness for it.

I read it "I believe ours included death". Hi, morning!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Fuck if I know what was in my wedding vows, and it was two months ago and in English.
