Many I Know, Few I See
I think my non-LJ livejournal is a livejournal RSS-feed, called 'attractmode'. I have no idea who, if anybody, reads it.

But all the same, there are a fair number of people I'd like to share my news with.

On Christmas morning, in Pasadena with his family, Kevin surprised me with an elaborately planned marriage proposal and a pink sapphire ring. I accepted. Details of the event itself are available in the late December portion of my blog at Attract Mode.

We're vaguely planning for a May 2005 wedding. It will be in Washington, either near Seattle or in the Olympic Peninsula. Neither of us are expecting a large family presence; we are hoping for a lot of friends, though. I don't expect to have an actual location until May '04 at the earliest; when I do, I'll come up with a guest list and send out save-the-date notices-- I think that's how this is supposed to go?

I've never gotten married before. I guess this is when all my obsession with doing something right the first time pays off.

Kevin is a beyatch, but I'm really happy that he wants to be around me for the rest of our lives. How somebody can be so charming and such a pain in the ass at the same time is a puzzle I get to spend a long time solving!

Congratulations and best wishes.

You should've mentioned having an rss feed sooner! I approve of such thigns greatly, as they complement my inherent laziness in blogreading.

Yay! Chrys :)

I'm doing wedding planning right now. If you have any questions, let me know.

As for save the dates... I ended up not doing them due to financial reasons. However, instead I called everyone after I was engaged and announced the engagement at the same time I told them when the wedding was (So that those out of town could start thinking about if they wanted to go)

OTOH we had a date when D.J. proposed to me. And my location was secured quickly afterward so this was possible.

Congrats!!!

I hope you two will be extremely happy, and have a wonderfully perfect wedding and marriage. :)

Are y'all still doing gaming at this point? Sorry for the bailing. :P Beyond my control, and now I don't have transportation other than bus, so am unliekly to rejoin unless someone wants to ferry me out there for it.

It is the people who are a pain in the ass who have to cultivate their charming side. :)

Now the question is, will you get a picture from your wedding into the Voice before we ever get around to sending in the picture from ours...
