you politely ask me not to die and i promise not to
right from the beginning—a relationship based on
good sense and thoughtfulness in little things
i would like to be loved for such simple attainments
as breathing regularly and not falling down too often

and to be on [...]
I was looking at a recipe for beet salad, and there in the “Most Popular ” column is the headline: Modern Love: Those Aren’t Fighting Words, Dear
Well, I consider myself something of an authority on Modern Love, so I checked it out.

ONLY TWO MONTHS LEFT!!!!!!
I hope I can relax a little, yikes…
Friends and family, we are pleased to announce a new venue for our reception!
Even though we had our hearts set on the rehearsal space @ LiveArts, we were unable to afford proper tenting for the terrace area. Tenting is a very lucrative business apparently, and we were quoted a price near to the cost of [...]
Friends, I wish you could have been there.
After telling the best John Bobbit joke I’d ever heard, the sweaty, fat man languidly undid his shirt, nigh down to his navel…
Last Friday Steph and I made a appointment at the Men and Boy’s Shop, to pick out tux styles and obtain my measurements. This is the [...]
According to my calculations, using the 20-25% rule of thumb, our final count should be right around the 160 mark.
