295 days away!


Yes, life being engaged is going along nicely, although it's not that different at the moment from life not being engaged. I suppose once I get about four months down the road it will become a bit different, but right now it's alright. It does involve asking people about what they did and how much it costed though. As well it involves thinking of people to fill various roles and maybe I'll eventually ask said people. Of course this wedding is nearly ten months down the road which is a long time away. It's good however for both of us to get some school out of the way before we begin hardcore planning. And for Melissa to be in Calgary for it will be wonderful.
Also ten months will be plenty of time for you to get used to the force that will be reckoned with. A force of love that is us. The above picture is only a warning of what will be unleashed upon thee. One day you might see us kissing, the next maybe we'll be *gasp* TALKING!! One day we could be kissing, and the next you might see us at the local supermarket buying Fruit Loops. Yes, beware now that we are engaged.
Fine, I'll admit we won't destroy everything for your innocent minds in the next ten months. For the reason that it's still a bit premature. It's not as if we can do much more to creep the majority of you folks out. But once the ten months is up, you will all feel our wrath. The wrath of love. A wrath that weather forecasters will mention on air, "The forecast calls for....oh my....". Okay they won't quite mention anything, but the wrath will be implicit.
But in another matter, I'm not quite sure I should call that wrath. It's actually sort of the opposite of wrath. It's something that is better reffered to as peace. We won't be seen hitting each other over the head with a chainsaw or anything. Peace is something that good couples excel at and something that will be our primary virtue. And righteousness and humility will also be among the plethora of virtues we will exemplify. Those and love as well I guess. A love that must be known. Just a word of warning, if you don't wish to know about our love, cover your ears around us in December and beyond. It is also possible that I am merely talking big in a bid to make you laugh or think I'm strange, but I'll let you decide that in two hundred ninety five days (well after those days). Look at picture and make up your own mind.
Please forgive us (and mostly me).

A kiss is a beautiful thing.I'll let Percy shelley elaborate......

Love's Philosophy

The fountains mingle with the river,
And the rivers with the ocean;
The winds of heaven mix forever,
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In one another's being mingle;--
Why not I with thine?

See! the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower would be forgiven,
If it disdained it's brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea;--
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?

- Percy Bysshe Shelley

Love will never creep me out. I've gotten so used to my parent's being in love that nothing of that sort scares, nor confuses me.

ZOMGWTFBBQ!!!! KISSING!

But in all seriousness... awwwww!

If I were ever to complain about your PDA's, I would be an immense hypocrite. If/when I marry a lady, you can be darn sure that the rest of you will never hear the end of it. All you guys will be saying:
"Oh my poor ears! Jonny's serenading her again"
or
"dang it Jonny, even Shakespeare stopped at 154 sonnets!"
or
"You really need to stop with all of your premium romancing, you're making us look bad" (haha)
