Not Just Another Weekend

I won't be able to check my e-mail this weekend because My Special Ladyfriend and I are leaving for Las Vegas friday afternoon and will utter our Holy Vows at some point when there's an opening at the Chapel. The man presiding over these honors will be no less a dignitary than the Eddie Powers Himself, considered by most to be "The Best on the Strip." Sorry that you won't be able to join us on such short notice, but we want to keep it private, though I'll be sure to take some good photos and post 'em up here early next week. Obviously I've been saving myself for marriage, so when we're not busy with our "Honeymoon" activities, consummating our love on a vast assortment of Vibrating Waterbeds, I plan to photograph some of the more famous old signs, gain a few pounds on the greasy buffets, and strike it rich at the El Cortez.

In other news, I added 15 new photos to the food section and made some headway with the Vegan Breakfasts page. Time-consuming bullshit. My boss thinks I'm insane for taking photos of my food and posting them, but I know you bastards love it.

Eddie Powers...I knew that cat back in the day. He was Eddie Watts back then. Chill cat, used to listen to The King all damn day. Said he wanted to be just like him. Brings a tear to my eye to see him achieve his dream. You go Eddie, you go boy!

Tell him I said "How's it shakin Watts?"

PJ, are you serious? If so, congratulations. If not, well... I don't know what to say. I'm still sort of baffled.

Call me a sucker!

No fair! I was going to steal you away. I had this really good plan worked up and everything. Do you have any friends that are cute like you? A girl's got to pin her heart on something.

Dude. I really hope this is a thickly veiled joke.

WTF?
Are you serious? When you and I had our chat near Christmas in the dank (but charming) bar, I could tell you love her very much. This just seems a bit sudden.

But then again, there are no "rules" for this sort of thing as it varies from people to people. And sometimes the ones who break "rules" get to live happily ever after.

If this is what you both want, then I'm happy for you and wish you both lots of luck and love.

Dude, I think your insane.. but I'm envious that your finally going to be able to have sex. Are you excited?

Man, don't do it. Those broads'll ruin you and take everything you own.

Berling's comment takes the cake. Be careful you little bugger.
