I know some of you will not remember who we are, but I hope some of you will. Life has taken a few interesting turns as of late, lol. First off... I do not have the internet right now, and have to use the local library for their internet. Second I got a promotion at Wal*Mart, and I am now the Department Manager of the Photo Center at store number 1962, in Kokomo, IN. Third which is the LARGEST, and MOST IMPORTANT!!! Dedicatedrider (Teresa for those who have only known her by her screenname), and I got married on May 30th, two weeks ago yesterday. Since then we have got a house and a car, lol. Life has been great, at least for us and our friends. Her folks are not taking it so well... because we kind of... ran off and did not include them in the ceremony, but that is a long story, possibly for another time. But hey, WE ARE MARRIED NOW!!!

In Christ,
Gamer4Christ

You're welcome. Did you like the color?

It sounds(and looks) like it was a beautiful wedding. (as opposed to most of those I've gone to)

I liked the color but Dus didn't, lol.

It was very beautiful and quaint, I loved the spot we picked out in the park. We actually got married at the park where we first met, it was pretty cool =)

How romantic. (Sorry for using that word, Waffle)

Dustin didn't like the color? That's easily fixed.

I think he'd actually prefer it in black, can we return it?

Nah, I'll just have a guy drive over another one in black. You can keep the blue one - maybe give it to your kids when they are learning to drive.

*wishes he could send a real present*

Ah - this picture!

I see this car as a metaphor for marriage.
Two different entities combined into one manifestation of amphibious glory.

well, actually, not really. I think it'd be cool.

but yeah, it was about time you guys got hitched.

Congratulations! Not quite sure what to say, except, when you shoot eachother, set your blasters on stun.

"hitched" what a quaint old expression.

May 30th - if only I had known the significance of that day at the time.
I think I was asleep for most of it...

Thanks everyone, lol.

Yeah, lol, I liked the term "hitched", lol. I use it alot, although Teresa has never heard me, lol. =P

BTW, Arch, I loved that car, lol, and can sort of... ummm... not really... agree with the metaphor, lol.

Thanks again everyone for the congratulations, lol. It is nice to know that we do have a solid group of friends here on CCN, lol.

Luckily for him I support his gaming habits =) Over the last week when he's gotten home from work he's sat down to play Oblivian while I made dinner. I put off working on dinner before he gets home so he has time to play his games, lol.

lol, yeah I am gaming while I have the chance, lol. And she does really support it, lol, granted there are times that she wants what "they" (girls) like to call "special attention", but beyond that I game when I can, lol. Like she admitted she does let me play Oblivion on my 360 every ONCE IN A WHILE!!! lol, Although I have yet to end a session of playing at the end of a quest, lol, she always demands me to be off in the middle of a quest!!! Can someone explain the importance of finishing what you start to her!?!?! PLEASE?!!? Anyway, lol, I am also busy with work at work and work at home, lol. Beyond my 40+ hour job of Department Manager at Wal*Mart, lol, I also come home and do the dishes (since she cooks), and I also help with hand washing the clothes, it is a 50/50 job, lol.

Ok, on to other news, lol. Something WONDERFUL happened yesterday, lol, Teresa and I had gone to a lake for her sister's b-day party, and in the midst of swimming, and wrestling in the water, I lost my wedding band in the dark murky sandy water there, lol. We searched for 25 minutes at least, and then I stopped near a kiddy slide there, and was just like "OH, LORD!!! Please help me find my ring!" in my head, and then at that moment I was knocked off balance, still trying to figure out by what, but then I put my hand behind me to catch myself, and there it was, lol. Ain't He wonderful!!! I mean He really does listen to ALL of our prayers, lol.

Well I will catch ya later, lol.

Oblivion, eh?

Marriage hasn't ruined your taste in games, I must say.

Btw, what was so wonderful about you losing your ring?

I'm trying to imagine a wife doing that. just surreal.

Dustin, that just means God's telling you your fingers are too skinny. gotta put some weight on. Mold that ring right into your finger.
Teresa, slip some ol' Bacon Grease into his morning cup o' Joe, k?

Excellent! That is great news! May God richly bless your union as you both serve Him!

Hey - in the photocenter, do you have the HP Kiosk/Equipment? I heard we are in some Wal-marts.

Let us know if you need anything.

God bless,

LOL! Well Arch, MY wife does that, lol, she seriously does, lol. lol, yeah I am getting my ring resized, prolly down 1/2 a size, lol. Down to a 7.5, lol.

Thank you GW! lol.

Hmmm... you say HP Kiosk/Equipment??? No, I am afraid we do not, lol, I have not known that HP does minilab stuff, lol. We have the Kodak PictureMaker, and our minilab is run by Fuji, lol.

Lazarus, we don't have internet at home, we go to the library to get online when we want to =) Right now he can't play WoW, but he was before we got married and probably will be again once we figure out how to fit internet into our budget.

BLOOD ELVES ARE THE BEST!!! They are the ONLY race that has REALLY been betrayed!!! It is the Human's fault they turned to Illidan for a mana source, I mean the Human Alliance did not offer aid when they were being attacked by the Scourge!!!

LOL!!! At level 2, and killing guards, impressive, lol... hopefully you are not trying to start the Knights of the Nine questline, lol!!! I had a character named Evol Reverof that was level 45, Master of EVERY guild, Full-Fledged Vampire, Holy Crusader, Owner of the BIGGEST Manor, User of a Wizard's Tower, Captain of a Pirate Crew, and the Madgod herself... I RULED Sheogorath's Realm of Oblivion, Shivering Isles!!! Then I deleted her... BY ACCIDENT!!! lol... Oh well, then I made Airren, a Scion of War (War Mage), now level two, but the Duke of Dementia, second in line to rule the Shivering Isles!!! lol.
