*** IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! ***

[anne_bradstreet]

I realize everyone has been all caught up in this election business lately, but the whole while _emilydickinson and I were planning our strategies, campaigning, and cat-fighting, something even more important was going on. chad_horvath and opheliablue were falling in love. ♥

I am pleased to announce that they are now ENGAGED to be MARRIED! The official engagement date is tomorrow:

Wait... didn't a LLama die or something? What happened with that?

[m_haigh_wood]

Ah, that's old news, mate. We've got a wedding to plan for!

*dances gleefully*

[killer_llamas]

You heartless bastard.

*cries forever*

[m_haigh_wood]

whuuuh?

[cutfever103]

Awww, congratulations to them! I'm so happy for you guys! Running for presidency... and those engaged to be married.

[killer_llamas]

Yes, well we're sure one of these endeavours will be a success anyway.

No, we will not be drawn any further on what we mean.

[anne_bradstreet]

Hmm.. I'm not sure how to interpret this. I know for a fact I will win the presidency... but I don't doubt that chad_horvath and opheliablue will be married. I wonder why you guys believe only "one of those endeavours" will "be a success"?

[killer_llamas]

We can't answer that question. We are frightened of the killer_fleeces.

*gasp*

Oh how I love you, Anne :)

You could have knocked me down with a feather after reading this post, especially after dictating most of it to chad_horvath over the phone earlier - just kidding! ha

*prints out ring and gets it ready to wear*

Hmm..possibly the marriage date may have to change to be within the first 3 months of my visa...sorry, dear, I know that doesn't give you much time to decide whether you want to keep me or not, but there you go.

I think...maybe...oh well, April 3rd, that's another VERY IMPORTANT DAY (i.e. my birthday) or April Fool's Day - or or...something else.

Anne you ommitted to mention that everyone has 7 months to do the most important thing of all, that being to buy us presents. Ok, you may now have less time to do this, but even if that turns out to be the case, three months is pleeeeeeenty of time. I will be compiling a list which I will be MORE than happy to email to anyone who asks.

*faints*

[anne_bradstreet]

Presents! Oh yes, I forgot, dear me... that almost makes it look like I'm too cheap to buy one for you! ;)

Don't worry, I'll get a registration worked up right away so no two people buy you the same gift. Do they have those in England? I just found out about them recently. Apparently, you tell the guests where to shop and they give their name and a gift from a list is automatically selected for them! It's a bit impersonal but you end up getting everything on the list if all your guests buy something.

Lessee... coffee maker, blender, silverware set, food dehydrator, tupperware containers... *wonders off bemusedly, talking to herself and scribbling madly into small notepad*

[opheliablue]

Ha! Yes we do have them here - or at least, I think we do because I watch a lot of American TV. Fantastic idea. I will be posting a list of websites where things can be ordered online - you know, like that lingerie place, etc. in due course.

I believe the killer_snails will be helping me with the lists. You are in charge of the whole operation, though, because you are simply the best! Flatter flatter flatter ♥

[anne_bradstreet]

Oh thank you! I do try. :)

[brigidforest]

ahahaha! that's fabulous! i loooove weddings. how about vegas? i've never been to vegas?

just kidding. i am sososo happy for you.

[anne_bradstreet]

Thanks!

[opheliablue]

Thank you! I didn't see this comment until now because anne_bradstreet isn't one of mine - not that I'm suggesting she's a fake at all, of course :)

Actually, I was thinking about something like a drive thru wedding in Vegas..haha.

I wanted June 16th just because it was the day that Ted and Sylvia got married - although I'd rather the marriage didn't turn out the same way ;)

[brigidforest]

Oh oops, but I'm glad you saw this eventually. I think June 16 is lovely date. I'm not very superstitious about those kind of things. And Vegas would be fun. John and I got married in a little court house with close friends. It was great. The smaller the better, I think.

congrats!

[opheliablue]

Thank you! :)
