Title: A time to change...
Post by: scotcar on September 02, 2007, 05:44:50 AM
Well, in one way yes.

After 8.5 years I have proposed to my long suffering girlfriend and she was silly enough to accept.  We now have 4.5 months to plan for a wedding ( early to mid Jan 2008 ) so I don't know how much I will be on.  In this time we are going to try and find a place to buy or rent once married..so it could be a little bit insane.

I suspect that my game time will be limited but who knows.

It is all very exciting, we are both very happy but it is getting stressful already.  

I need a beer just thinking about it.....

Scott

Congratulations!

You know moving house and getting married are both in the top 5 most stressful life events....right? *grins and ducks*

Good luck too!

Ummmmm, I fail to see where the planning of your wedding impacts on your play time at all.

She may pretend that she wants you involved mate, my advice is to call her on her bluff, the probable outcome being she'll admit that it will all go better without any input from you and you get to keep playing as much as you like. Everyone's a winner!

PS. Congrats!

*reluctantly agrees with Pseudo*

Asked the hubby what his "must-haves" were for the wedding.  Proceeded to plan it to perfection while he played Eve :).

Congratulations on your impending nuptials, your life will never be *quite* the same again.  Similar, at times...but not the same *grin*.

Happy commiserations!

Just kidding.  You will have to cut back on the RP time unless you've managed to fluke a misus that's into this sort of thing.
Mine thinks I'm mad as a cut snake. Maybe she's right.

Best of luck with it all.  Of and don't listen to Pseudo.  Get involved, it will be alot cheaper that way and by being involved you'll probably get more online time in future.
My only tip is make sure you enjoy the day.  If I had the dough I'd get married every year.  I had an absolute ball...at least from what I remember of it.

Best of luck and fortune to you both!

Cheers,
Polak76

 Be involved, but let her make all the decisions (less to bring up and blame you for later when things don't go quite as planned).
 
 Enjoy it!

Congrats.  For a wedding present you should get her a laptop and two advanced purchase copies of the new Layo game.  Maybe you could even spend your honeymoon trying out the game but that would probably mean delaying the honeymoon for a while but you know for the best you can wait.  :)

That bill aint a one-off.  It gets exponentially larger as time goes on.

Thanks all!
It has been 3 days and we may have the venue sorted out...then the real fun begins (thought it was the hardest part, my married friends have informed me otherwise).

I was trying to get it all out sourced, including my appearance, but that is a no go.

I am encouraging Emma to do all the work...she is too smart for that though.  She is already writing a list of things for me to do...

They always talk about the three rings associated with a wedding:
The Engagement ring;
The Wedding ring; and
The Suffering......

Unfortunately her comment when she see me play is "What are you playing that stupid thing for?"  Maybe she will come around...maybe....

Now that I think of it...this might make a great CDQ.....

You just need to have her start a character and play with you for an hour and she'd be hooked.
