Hey there! It's early November 2016. You coming back? I want to hear how your weight loss journey is, not to mention your around-the-globe journey! Do post again.
from dangerspouse :
What a great note! Your grandpa sounds like he was a real character, to say the least. And...uh, yeah. I ain't buying Grandma's "I had no idea!" protestations. It's been my experience that women ALWAYS know what men are up to. It's not like we're either particularly complex, or particularly good at dissembling. She knew, the little minx. Glad you liked the wedding pic! Class all the way, that was us :)

You know what they need to make? Mashed potato yogurt! Shame you don't live closer, or I'd whip you up a batch myself. I laughed aloud at those conversations you had with the various clueless types, but none moreso than the one with Grandma Vagina! (Of course.) Glad to hear you've on the mend according to schedule, and I fully understand your decision to sacrifice things that others might be horrified to consider, all in pursuit of things that mean more to you. See? There really IS nothing to astrology! (Says this Aquarian.) Here's the pic of NewWifey(tm) and me: http://dangerspouse.diaryland.com/130710_1.html (Turns out it was posted a lot longer ago than I remembered, oops.) Glad to cheer for you, especially if it comes with pom-poms! Hang in there :)
from dangerspouse :
Whoa! Yup, that's surgery alright. I'm actually familiar with it from watching several seasons back-to-back of "Supersize vs. Super Skinny" in one go about a year ago while snowed in at work. (NewWifey(tm) was crushed to find out Dr. Christian is gay, lol. I think she really thought she had a chance, poor girl.) Anywhooo, my best wishes to you that it's a smashing success, and worth the privations. You're a better man than I ;) Anything involving dietary restrictions is pretty much right off, for me. Give me treacle, or give me death says I! So listen keep posting about your progress, willya? There's a slovenly American guy out there on the interwebs who's cheering for you, and he wants to know you're making a go of it. (And yes, my wife is indeed uber cool. How nice of you to notice :) Did you see our wedding pic I posted some episodes back? That kinda captures her whole persona in a nutshell. I wanna be more like her when I grow up. Without the boobs, of course.)
from dangerspouse :
You're waiting for surgery RIGHT NOW, and you're taking time out to describe a chicken fajita burger, sweet potato fries and coffee milkshake to little ol' me? You are hardcore, babe! I salute you. And I hope all goes well under the knife. But....if you don't make it, can I have your unused Christmas wrapping paper? I used all mine up this year and hate going back to buy more, since I always forget it til the last second. Thanks! (Good luck with the surgery, whatever it is!) :)

Y'know, I don't remember D-Land EVER have a Note's notification system. Or maybe they did, but I've always just been too inattentive to notice. Like most other important things in my life. Either way, I don't recall it. Still, well done on getting back to me however eventually! That was quite a missive. Ok, let's see if I can respond more or less appropriately. So: 1. Resolutions? That would imply I have a shortcoming that needs addressing. So, TONS. All of which I've broken already. 2. HAPPY FEET!! I love you. And that sound system. 3. Happy Birthday! American diner food to ring it in, eh? I approve...as long as you went Full American and ordered three times as much as you could ever hope to ingest, then ingest it all anyway. Many more, kiddo :) 4. The "Grandmother Monopoly" story made me guffaw here. That really was funny. 5. My Boxing Day was spent as most of my holidays are spent: working. Of course, since Boxing Day isn't considered a holiday on this side of the border, it wasn't much of hardship. And since my company gave me off on Christmas at the very last second - a real rarity - I was content. 6. Well of course you're wallowing in a sea of boxes. That's why it's called Boxing Day. Duh. 7. GOOD LUCK WITH THE MOVERS! Keep us all apprised. 8. Thanks for the rockin' note. Now I have to go drink. And maybe go to a diner for some reason.... :)
from dangerspouse :
So how was your Christmas after all that?? Hopefully you haven't posted in a while because you're still basking in the afterglow and wallowing in seas of shredded wrapping paper. Happy 2016, by the way. Hope it rocks for you! :)
from dangerspouse :
Rupert Grint? Really?? Oh well, to each their own. I hope you get him, and everything else you want, on this upcoming birthday. If only to make up for having it so close to Christmas. That's gotta hurt.
from dangerspouse :
You get credit for the pun anyway. I'm sure some neuron deep down in your pituitary gland or something was firing away trying to alert the rest of you about it. That happens all the time.
from dangerspouse :
C'mon, "catalyst" was a pun there, right? Right? Ha! I knew it. :)
from dangerspouse :
Nice beginning. I hope the rest of the story stays happy. Good luck at the new job!
