Wednesday night, Lithus went out for a pack of smokes. He came back with an engagement ring. I was at my desk, finishing up some work and he asked if he could talk to me about a few things. I said sure, saved everything and spun around. He talked some and then next thing I knew, he was down on one knee, asking me to be his wife, asking to be my husband.
Holy shit, people!
And yes. I said yes.
- The ring is white gold with garnets.
- We haven't set a date yet but we're thinking probably this coming February or putting it off until next Autumn because there is no reason to even pretend we can get married during fire season.
- It will be an uber-small wedding. A lot of good friends aren't invited. In fact, we're not really having a wedding at all. We're getting married and we're telling a small group of people where and when and saying "If you want to be there, great. If we're too far away or too expensive or it doesn't work with your schedule, we understand. Otherwise, stick around because there will probably be cake." And that's about it.
- Hopefully, it will be as close to simply wandering down to the court house and meeting with a Justice of the Peace as it can be without actually wandering down to the court house and meeting with a Justice of the Peace.
Holy shit, people!
Those are Pobble Thoughts. That and a buck fifty will get you coffee.

Holy shit indeed. Congratulations. News to be celebrated. As you may be a Canadian soon, a Canuck reception might be in order. We could call it... coffee at my house... or something. Its a small country. It could work.

My mom says the wedding is really the start of a story, not the end. I hope this is the first chapter of a long and beautiful story.
Many congrats. Beautiful ring. Don't lose your minds arranging the wedding, trust me, you get about 6weeks fromt he day and realise you are mumbling as you walk down the street. ;)
Zooom ~ Thank you. :):):):) And no, the fires aren't affecting us personally, for which we too are grateful.
Momo ~ I figured the announcement might as well match the announcer. Thanks for your wishes and appreciating the announcement style.
Cracker Lilo ~ Thank you. And I totally agree with your mom.
Hagelrat ~ First, welcome to Pobble Thoughts. Always nice to see a new name. Second, thank you for your good wishes. Third, no, no craziness over the wedding. We've both been married before and have done that one. This one...we're getting married, we're not having a wedding.
