Susie: Excuse me. Is your name Chandler?
Chandler: Uh, yes, yes it is.
Susie: Chandler Bing?
Chandler: Do you know me or are you just really good at this game? -Friends
Match and I are cut to the chase type people. We don’t play the typical dating games and I’m so glad for that. Maybe that’s why we work so well together. We do however love to play actual games. This weekend was filled with random drinking games that turned out to be a blast. (more…)
He proposed on a Valentine’s Day, although he didn’t do it face to face, he did it in one of the little Valentine bits in the paper. I think he had to pay for it by the word, because it just said “Lee love Dawn, marriage?” which you know, I like, because it’s not often you get to something that’s both romantic and thrifty. -Dawn, The Office
I can’t believe how fast January has gone by. It’s almost February, which means both Match’s birthday and Valentine’s Day are coming up. With Match still being out of work, any sort of gift giving event has become a sore subject. I want to do something nice for him, but I also don’t want him to feel guilty. We thought he’d have started his new job by now, but they’re really giving him the run around. Three weeks for a background check just to be a security guard/EMT? WTF?! Grrr….anyways… (more…)
We enter the world alone and we leave it alone. And everything that happens in between, we owe it to our self to find a little company. We need help. We need support. Otherwise we’re in it by our self. Strangers, cut off from each other and we forget just how connect we all are. So instead we choose love. We choose life and for a moment we feel just a little bit less alone. -Grey’s Anatomy
Match and I had our first really hard discussion as an engaged couple this past week. You remember I told you Match got a new job right before our trip to Oregon? Well, they told him he had to get his gaming license to become a security guard/emt at the casino he was hired at. That meant an extensive background check. They said it would be about 3 weeks to complete, and here it is well over 3 weeks and still no start date. Match has become really anxious being stuck at home all the time, and more and more depressed and worried about money. (more…)
Dorothy! I’ve just been speaking to that good looking reporter over there who just got back from Russia, and he told me some very interesting things. It snows there in the summertime, and they don’t have many attractive women – do you realize what that means? When we go to Russia I will have my pick of any man in the country and you can make a snowman in June! -Blanche, The Golden Girls
The poll results are in and wow, it looks like you guys really want to see what we look like. I must admit I’m kind of honored. 
Match said I better pick a good one or you guys are going to be disappointed, hehe. I still won’t be using our real names, so hopefully the anonymity stays intact. I think I’ll wait until the professional wedding photos come out. But…if the engagement photos are good maybe I’ll cave and do the unveiling then. We’ll just have to see. Speaking of the wedding…we set the date! (more…)
- Chandler: Why would I kiss a girl and then put her on your bed?
- Ross: Well, then, who was on my bed?
- Monica: Oh! Oh! Oh!
- Ross: No! No! No!
- Monica: Yes!
- Ross: You were under the pile of coats?
- Monica: I was the pile of coats! You were my midnight mystery kisser?
- Ross: You were my first kiss with Rachel?
- Monica: You were my first kiss ever?
- Chandler: What did I marry into? -Friends
This week has been pretty boring so far. I think part of that is because all I want to do is go home to my fiance and snuggle. It’s pouring down rain here and it makes me want to curl up with a good movie and burrow into Match’s arms.
Let’s see, what is new with me? (more…)
