This would seem to indicate that your elevation into the Underverse (think Chronicles of Riddick) is instantaneous. What a shame, I guess they email you a proof of purchase or something when you cough up the dough...

Shhhh.... I think the concern might be a shared computer.

To me it was more along the lines of: Well, I just spent around $900 on wedding attire (I'm getting married in April) so buying this item seemed so small in comparison especially considering the clothing I just purchased will only be worn once... :p

Good point. Congratulations!

Me and my fiance are both divorced, thus, we have been engaged for over three years. Additionally, we still have not set a date. She does have a ring, however, and a rather nice one at that. I am not sure if we will ever actually tie the knot, since we both had two sons when we started dating and have no desire to reproduce further. Being in a non-married relationship has been so much better than our marriages I am not sure either of us wants to change anything. Sort of the "its not broken so don't fix it" philosophy. It is funny to me how much our married friends are bothered by our extended engagement.

Something about buying the Provari bothers me. I cannot quite put my finger on it. I think it may be that such a purchase would constitute proof of my mid-life crisis.

I'll see your mid-life crisis and raise you an extremely post adolescent existential crisis. I'd rather be dealing with justifying buying toys than justifying my existence...

Well then I must either call you, or fold, or re-raise to a mid-life existential and philosophical meaning of life crisis. Okay, I am "all in" with the latter. The action is on you, Ocelot!

Did you get a white provari and a bedazzled 19mm IBTanked tank to go with that dress? :)

Nope, not a cult.

Now that is funny. I think the well-endowed-device-owner fiance should have provided the accessories! It seems only fair, unless he paid for the dress, in which case I think he deserves a pass...

How many 43 year olds have a collection of cheerleader photos

Too late Booboo, you can't fold. I'm 53 and it hasn't gotten better. Be prepared to replace those cheerleader photos with ripped out pages of Kafka, Nietzsche and Kierkegaard.

We are actually both divorced ourselves and I have 3 boys and he has a daughter.. All ages 10 and under.. I'm 32 (almost 33) and can't have anymore kids and he's fine with that so we are a match made in perfection and our marriage is more than deserved.. (there is a whole huge story behind this and trust me it makes Lifetime movies look like nirvana..) So if you two don't wanna go through the whole hell again that's your choice and your friends need to just accept it.. I can't blame you to be honest. It's hard when you jump in and expect that the relationship you're in is supposed to last forever and it doesn't. If you're happy the way it is then let it be.. I agree if it ain't broke don't fix it. Sounds like your lady is a damn fine woman and good for you for finding her :)

Almost forgot. What ejuice vendors are you lovebirds registered with?

That is brilliant! They can exchange ProVaris instead of rings! Do you promise to love, honor and vary your voltage, in dead batteries and in kick-azz plumes?

She is amazing. I have to say, she has taught me so much about things I never knew or even considered. As corny as it sounds, she gave me balance in my life, and taught me to live today and take nothing for granted. I was living for tomorrow (and other stupid things) the first 35 years of my life. I will never be able to repay her for that lesson, so I just try to be as good to her as I can. I am not entirely sure why she puts up with me, but I am certainly glad it is so.

Looks like all four of us (me, you and our duo of fiances) agree that first marriages are best for getting ready for the real deal. I bet my "my ex is a demon from hell" stories could make an excellent movie, too. I have considered capitalizing on it by making a story of it, but who has the time?

If we do that.. Plus our Pagan handfasting.. Plus having a fully armed wedding.. We could make the news! :D

Ah, Blessed Be. We did a mash-up of rituals and at one point burned petitions. I'm sure the Lady would have been just as receptive to huge vapor plumes, but I'm an eclectic.

I'll bet you can if you asked.

I'm actually thinking about this seriously.. It would be an awesome sales pitch for most vendors.. Plus it would bring even more people who vape closer.. I may have to make some calls on Monday.. I'll keep everyone posted on how it turns out.. Could be a whole new idea :p

You guys simply must video tape this wedding. PicC will record it for you for free, won't you? (I know he loves it when others volunteer him for things!)

EDIT: HA! post number 1500! It snuck up on me.
