Good job, smonster!
And because I am silly and forgot to say these things earlier: Happy Anniversary to Connie and her DH! Happy Birthday to Javachick and Dylan!
Buffy: You tossed that vamp like he was a... little teeny vamp. Riley: You wanna go again? C'mon. I bet this place is just teeming with aerodynamic vampires.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
aw ... so many happy stories! congratulations to all those who married the right person (whether they were the first to ask or not).
I was proposed to once ... I said yes. Then I regained my sanity (and sense of self-preservation).

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Sweet zombie Jesus, Zen. That is a horrifying story.

Our wings are not tired
I found the right person due to this community. Still in our first year of marriage but consider that I didn't ever really plan to get married at all. When it is the right one then it just is the right one.

And maybe *I'll* ask.
Whoo hoo! I highly recommend!

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I take great comfort in the fact that no one has ever asked me to marry them, and if things go according to plan, no one ever will. (I asked The Girl. Repeatedly. Including one serious 'keep ignoring this question and you will not get asked it anymore' proposal involving a very romantic picnic on Clapham Common with a treasure hunt to get her there. She then pretended, for the most painful five minutes of my life, that she didn't have a ring to give me in return for the one I gave her. Fortunately, she produced one before I could kill her with a fork.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
So did anyone else marry the first person who asked?
I've had three girlfriends and married two of them. I'm pretty sure I've married everyone who ever wanted to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm pretty sure I've married everyone who ever wanted to.
That's a very completist stat.

Other than the occasional shouted-from-stoop "ooh, baby, wanna marry me?", which I don't think really counts, no one has ever asked. And I have not asked. Division by zero batting average, ahoy!

I'm thinking of changing my business cards. I'll delete all my qualifications and replace them with "Outlier".
