Objections?

I never expected this… I prayed for it… every day… for years… moreso over the last several months…
You can say, “Nothing else matters,” and believe it, but when it comes right down to it, some things do. And yet… Nothing else matters.
We’ve made our choices… Some bad, some good… Sometimes you have to think how much it’s worth… what’s the price you’ll pay… what have you done… what have they done… how much can you both overcome?
But when you come to same conclusion over and over, you have to ask… Like she did…
Anyone have any objections to me changing my name to Ann Steel?
Seriously… Any objections?
…and hope for the best.
I already vowed my life as her husband, she as my wife. We’ve both messed up a lot.
But I love her.
And I hope beyond hope that that date sticks and we have the chance to show each other the promises we’ve made and make good on the ones we’ve broken.
I’ve had a lot of time to think the last couple days, and realized… if I can’t follow my heart with her, then I might never have had one to begin with. The Devil’s in the details, and I don’t feel like going into them. We both deserve better than what we’ve been dishing out to each other.
All I can say is, the love I have for this woman, and the family she gave me, is unconditional.
Whatever it takes, it takes.
It might bother a lot of people to know, but I’d rather be broke and living under a bridge with her than have everything in the world I need without her.
And that’s the plain, damn sober truth.

Holy Frac you two, that’s pretty damn awesome and exciting news!
For every mountain you’ve had to climb, I wish you a thousand times that effort in happiness.
Funny though… I’d somehow always thought Mark would change his name to Mark Wildcat instead. *snicker*
Can’t wait to see the pictures!

I’m guessing there won’t be any. We’ll probably set a friends and family thing much later … when we can afford it.
Life’s been a bitch for both of us lately.
The Keep-it-simple thing seems … impossible … but …
Oh, God, I hope that’s the plan … it was last I checked.

Ok, someone HAS to take pictures silly, even cellphone camera pictures. You can’t not have a picture of the actual event. It’s not about the fuss… it’s about the moment between the two of you, and that doesn’t mean it has to be ‘typical’ it just means it has to be special. You need that ‘moment’ picture. Trust me.
Ok, I see I should be talking to Ann. LOL. Women always make more sense than men (running away now…)

That is fantastic dude. Nothing beats the sober truth when it comes to your lady. Best wishes. Don’t be a stranger.
