Wow! Thank you all!
I'm very touched by your support and well-wishes.
However, I'm afraid the gun has been jumped just a bit. While bananabry and I would love to spend the rest of our lives together, right now there is no formal engagement. I'm still trying to finish school, and both of us are trying to scrape by financially. It will likely be a couple of years yet before we can seriously think about setting a date. Nevertheless, when that day comes, David (who is even sweeter in person than in his posts) has graciously promised that he will perform our ceremony.
I really must thank you, David,
for setting the wheels in motion here. Your enthusiasm and the kind wishes of everyone who has replied thus far have inspired me to work even harder to make my wedding more than just a dream.
Since Dark Shadows has played such a huge role in my adult life, and since bananabry and I were brought together in part because of DS (long story), I think a DS Fest would be a most fitting place for the occasion. When that happy day finally arrives, I hope that all of you will be able to share it with us
(with cake and cheese and sherry aplenty
).
Thanks again!
