I have remained silent on a rather significant issue and have decided it’s about time I spill the beans. Initially I was hesitant to discuss my personal life because the site has migrated from a quasi-journal to a blog, and personal entries didn’t seem to fit anymore. If you will permit me to return to the former style in honor of this occasion, I would be grateful.
A month from today I will be married in the Timpanogos Temple.
Exciting, isn’t it? I consider myself extremely lucky to have found Katie and I wish I had something profound to say to express how I feel, but it’s hard to put into words. Simply put, I feel a profound sense of gratitude.
Oh, and while most people say the Christmas holidays pass too quickly, I have a feeling they won’t go fast enough for me. Not that I’m counting or anything.
Aaaaah! CONGRATULATIONS!!! That’s great! I’m really happy for you and Katie. :) Eee, so exciting. :)
Congrats!
You know, I wondered if something like this was up when you asked Cameron about hotels with jacuzzis. ;)
WooHoo! Exciting. Congrats!!
Hey, your site can contain both links and personal info. There’s nothing wrong with that, not that I’m aware of anyway.
PS, Have you composed and played a song for her yet?
Congrats. I still can’t believe you’re betraying all of us in Singles Land, but whatever you think is best. ;)
Thank you for the congratulations.
Jan: I wondered if someone would pick up on that. Nice work.
Renee: I know it can, but it just hasn’t been the norm recently. I guess I’m just weird like that.
Renee2: I’ve played songs for her. We’ll see about composing one.
Cameron: When you find someone to leave with I don’t think you’ll have any problem leaving Singles Land.
Singles land sucks. Especially in a Singles Ward. The movie don’t lie, baby!
Singles Land completely sucks. I don’t blame Dan a bit for getting out while the getting’s good.
Cameron, I think it’s more of an escape than a betrayal.
!!! Congratulations to both of you!
I kind of like singles land, though the alternative certainly has its advantages. I can’t blame Dan for leaving, though it is rather inconvenient for me to have to move now. ;)
Levi, just stay there. Pretend you’re their kid. ;)
Congratulations! So are you going to post a picture of Katie for all your blogging friends?
Dan is smart for moving out of singles land. The pickings get slimmer and slimmer…
Mel: If I had a scanner I could scan in the invitation photo. I’ll see what I can do.
Renee: Don’t give Levi any ideas. Mel already asked what I would do if he refused to move out. All I’ll say is if Levi’s stuff is still there after January 1st, DI is going to get a whole lot of donations.
I don’t want just a pic, I want bio, hobbies, likes, dislikes. Need to make sure she’s good enough for my cousin. :-)
Oh she is. I don’t know how she would feel about me putting a full biography of her on the web. We’ll could come visit so you and Lisa can see for yourselves.
Sure, after the wedding when it’s too late. ;-)
So, Dan. What does Katie think of your desire for $99,000 400ft gopher made of cheese?
Oh my. I vaguely remember writing that but now that the time is here, I can say without reservation that a $99,000 400-foot gopher made entirely of cheese is completely unnecessary.
LOL
Dan, don’t give in on that point. You felt strongly about it 6 months ago and you should stick to your guns. If she truly loves you . . . .
I haven’t been hit up for donations yet either. Did you at least run around screaming?
When I get married, I plan to run around screaming, “I’m getting married!” and then ask for donations. If that doesn’t work, I sure hope the girl’s parents are rich because I want to have a $100,000 wedding. $1,000 for the normal expenses (the cake, dress, tux, food) and $99,000 for the 400 foot gopher made entirely of cheese.

Good point Rick.
So hows’about some cash? On the order of $99,000 should cover it.
Sure. No problem.
The check is in the mail. :p
Congratulations, ol’ buddy, ol’ pal … best of luck to you and Katie.
