His reply?
"Which one?"
We talked for an hour or so... K well he talked and...

Ten hour days are an everyday occurance here. I hate them. It's so difficult to get anything else done in the evenings. I hate it. Are your nerves kicking in yet?
Gettin more real by the day... went to the bank today to get some spending money in american funds. 7 more sleeps!
asnider:
Spending money is always good. I'm sure you are nervous. Seven more days will fly by. Good luck.
marloski:
i don't think security will make a big deal of it! just put it in your wallet or carry on and make sure it goes thru the belt thingy. you should be fine!!! good luck!
7 more sleeps... but really, who's counting?
asnider:
It's good that you're excited

15 more sleeps to California!
20 more sleeps till the ring comes out... Had the most unreal urge to do it last nite here at home. She was just looking so damn cute and loveable, but then that would have wrecked an entire year of planning... I want to get this one right! The last time was in some gas station parking lot after fighting...

Shitty past few days. One particular idiot who works foe me needs a kick in the head! Too bad I can't afford to fire him at this point. Hell I can't even suspend him cuz I'm too short handed.

She was just looking so damn cute and loveable, but then that would have wrecked an entire year of planning... I want to get this one right! The last time was in some gas station parking lot after fighting about the fact that she was fucking around... Again! (Still!?!). So it's real important I get this one right!
So here's a little history. Why? No reason other than I have an hour before I have to go to work, and I'm feeling a little chatty this morning. My ex-wife (circa mid-nineties) and I were somewhat of a bad match. After 3 years of hell and her screwing everything that moved (including me fortunately), we got married, which lasted all of about nine months till she found herself pregnant, and what with me out of town, it was somewhat hard to tell me it was mine (like she did the first time it happened when we first started dating, and she had an abortion, and it fucked me up and blah blah blah blah!) So that ended that.
Before Nereid was likely the evilist bitch I ever did get involved with who somewhat oddly enough found herself PREGNANT while I was again out of town working (note to self---- get a fuckin in-town job!)
But hey, it's all moot!
My best friend and I had a conversation recently about her bad luck in men. My reply is this... IT IS ALL WORTH IT WHEN IT FINALLY LEADS YOU TO THAT ONE PERSON!
I wouldn't trade my past for anything because it has just been a road to Nereid.
Wow.... some digression.... anyhooo.... So I realized yesterday just how nervous I really am.... You should have seen me in my darkroom at work (did I ever mention I'm a radiographer), looking at the ring (cuz that's where it is hidden, and I start trying to imagine how I'm going to do it... am I going to do it in some fabulous restaurant? Am I going to get down on one knee? etc. etc. etc. And my heart starts beating faster, and harder, and I start getting all jittery. How Pathetic!
I love it!
I'm sure I had more to say, but I better get ready for work.
20 more sleeps!?
WOW!!!!

What a fantastic weekend. Had to work Saturday for a few hours, but got to spend most of the day with Nereid. Then we took both families (and a couple friends) to the Red Deer College Arts Centre to see The Sound of Music. There is so much amazing talent that comes out of our college arts program. It was amazing.
For the first time...

you too!

My friends promotion. We were celebrating a promotion.
Actually, promised MB an exclusive.... and was sick.... and back to my hundred hour weeks... and....
So what's with that one particular question anyways?
"So did she say Yes?"
No really, what's with that? Did she say Yes!
OF COURSE SHE SAID YES!!! I MEAN COME ON PEOPLE!!! WHO WOULDN"T WANT TO MARRY ME!!??!
Disneyland is MOTHER!@#$%^ AWESOME!!!
If you ever have the chance, I highly recommend you give it a try... and for the extra few g's.... the engagement adds a delectible touch!
Who out there can beat asking the one you love to marry you AT Disneyland NewYears Eve, beside the wishing well beside Sleeping Beauty's Castle... soft lighting, happy music, and not a soul within forty yards!
NO-ONE!!!!!
I rock!
Well... now that I have gotten that out of my system, I can go back to work.
