That's wonderful, Gud. Of course her feelings as most important but it helps a lot when you like the person marrying your child.
Ah, 60. I remember that one. It was the year I decided I really needed to get serious about my health, after having a really awful end of 59. My Mom in her 90s advised me that she wished she had done more about her health in her 60s to enjoy the next few decades more. I think she did pretty darn well actually.

Yep, my mom said that to me so often. She basically died of old age at 95 so she did something right.
He seems like a really good guy, so I'm pretty happy about it. She certainly seems to be happy which is all that really matters.
Yay!
Aw, Venerable Hecubot, that sounds like a Futurama character
Happiest of birthdays to The Venerable Hecubot!
Gud, glad to see your pixels!
After all of the adulting I accomplished this weekend, I stayed up way too late last night to finish a book and now I feel like I'm dying of the tired.
One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston. I did that thing where I was all, "Oh, I only have X more pages left so I should just keep going."
Happy birthday to our own Hecubot!
I had the third - and, seemingly, final - book in K.J. Charles Will Darling series, so I stayed up finishing it. Then, OF COURSE, I had to go back and re-read the previous two, so ... there isn't enough coffee.
And then there's this. I keep telling people life is stranger than anything I could make up.
I spent all yesterday reading The Witness for the Dead which is not divided into chapters so it's really hard to just stop reading. But I got to sleep at my usual time, just didn't get anything done during the day. Which is not great, but was a mostly conscious choice.
