OK, I'm not. It's not until Saturday, and it's in the afternoon, but I couldn't think of a better title. 'I'm getting married on Saturday afternoon this weekend' just didn't roll off the tongue so well.
Sooo, I shan't be around for a couple of weeks after Friday. We fly out to Malta on the Monday after the wedding and spend ten days there soaking up the sun and local colour. Everyone is to keep well and take care of themselves while I'm away.
That was it, really. I'm not at my most eloquent on Monday mornings while sitting in the office....

"Cheer up!" they said, "It could be worse!" So I did, and it was.

Hope you live happily with your wife. See I got back to what lonewulf told me aout marriage, and found that he has some point in refusing to marry. I have turned down two grooms without seeing them, and refused their visit to our home to see if we can get together or not. I didn't have the courage to accept, I don't know why. Perhaps bcz I am afraid to death to live with a man whom I'll have quarrels with, as not everyone shows his real identity during the engagement period. I would have needed more assurances and info about the guy.
Anyways, get back after three years and tell us if you still feel you are happy or you wished you didn't marry bcz of responsibilities , that I also don't like in marriage.
Oh, just while thinking of it: spending money on kids schools, taking them to doctors for vaccines, teaching them when they come back to home, putting up with the man's shoutings, working day and night in the kitchen, washing, etc...
I 'd better stay at home where everybody cares for those things and not me, but then think about it: you need kids to take care of you when you are old. Your parents aren't going to stay for you, and your brother will marry and have their own families. It is a difficult decision.

Now we have wished him a happy life with his new bride and Jason is safely married, can we old married guys start making our sly, knowing predictions about the changes coming in his life?
