For the record: Haruka and I are indeed getting married

[LostinVA]

Just for anyone who has doubts.

Apparently,it's making the rounds of the internets that we are "faking it." I hope not, or Haruka's stepdad is gonna kick our asses -- we've already spent a bunch of his money. And he's kinda scary.

:scared:

Oh brother. People need to get a life.

[DS1]

1. some people need to get their own lives

:thumbsup:

[LostinVA]

2. I know -- like people with cat avatars -- oops!

[DS1]

10. hmmm. that wasn't directed towards you

but if that's how it's to be, then so be it

[LostinVA]

14. I was just joking, sweetie!

:pals:

[DS1]

15. alrighty then!

:)

:dunce:

[bicentennial_baby]

3. Well, if it makes you feel any better....

There are also rumors that I'm pregnant (which I am NOT), and a Meth addict.

:rofl:

:pals:

[LostinVA]

5. Yeah, I heard about those.

[Jamastiene]

42. Are you shitting me?

Some people have NOTHING better to do with their lives, do they? :rofl:

[Shakespeare]

4. Thus proving theorum (sadly) that some people are assholes.

And some are bigger assholes than others.

Fuck the internets, and a big, happy :toast: to you and Haruka.

:hug:

[LostinVA]

6. I mean it -- her stepdad really would kick our asses.

:hug:

[In_The_Wind]

7. I never doubted you for a minute.

[LostinVA]

8. I never thought you did.

:hug:

[Bjornsdotter]

9. Never heard the rumors

...congrats on the marriage, keep an eye out for the step-dad!

Cheers :toast:

[LostinVA]

12. He's actually a nice guy -- quite a bit of the Irish in him, though.

Fortunately, it's tempered by some French blood.

Thank you for the congratulations, though.

:toast:

[blondeatlast]

11. No doubt here and I couldn't be happier for you both! Perhaps Skittles

could kick THEIR asses... :rofl:

[LostinVA]

13. Yeah -- Skittles is scarier than Haruka's stepdad

And she likes cats!

[LeftyMom]

16. Thank goodness, I was worried I might have to cancel my order for a pit-bull shaped lentil loaf.

;)

[LostinVA]

17. Does it have a cornflake crust?

Will you be bringing a random baby to breastfeed at the wedding?

[LeftyMom]

18. Other than my date, no.

:shrug:

[Redstone]

19. OK, that's good to hear. Where and when, if you don't mind me asking? And may I add

that I don't think it's any of "the internets'" fucking business what you two do or do not do.

Agreed: Those people you refer to need to take a LONG break from the internets and start researching the concept of having a life.

Here's what I'd like to see happen: I'd like for the two of you to be happy. And, as I offered to the Lioness, if you want to have your reception in our back yard, you're more than welcome to do so. You could even have the Olive Garden cater the occasion.

[LostinVA]

21. Check your PM in a few. nt

[Critters2]

20. What the hell is wrong with people?

Honestly! Well, FWIW, I believe you.

[LostinVA]

22. Who the hell knows?

I didn't act like this in middle school. I really don't get it.

[SPKrazy]

23. I've not heard that, but I wouldn't believe it unless I heard it from

the two of you!

:pals:

[LostinVA]

28. It's amazing what people will make up.

:pals:

[SPKrazy]

29. Yes it is, they will make shit up, imagine things that didn't happen

and then pass that on to others who in turn will believe apparently anything :grr: and then people that were once friends will no longer be friends..

Oh, sorry, my little rant there....


:hi:

[LostinVA]

31. Hmmmmmmmm

That sounds tres familiar to me, too...

:pals:

[SPKrazy]

49. Well it sucks

at least I think so!

:hug:

[bicentennial_baby]

32. No way!!!

Nothing like that's ever happened to me! :o

:rofl:

[SPKrazy]

47. I know, me either

:crazy:

:rofl:

[SarahB]

24. It's amazing how those rumour mill types screw things up.

I'm out of the radar these days with most of it, but it's amazing what people (without much in the way of lives themselves) think they know and how much even better stuff they miss. :P

Just be happy. Always the best revenge. :hi:

[LostinVA]

25. Agreed.

And I know you would know.

[Gormy Cuss]

26. Thanks for clearing that up.

As you can imagine, that rumor was keeping me up nights. That and the one about the meth addict preggers gal from Boston...

;)

[LostinVA]

27. Oh yes -- that other rumor turned me into a terrible insomniac.

;)

[rug]

30. You would not be moving to New Jersey unless you were serious.

[lost-in-nj]

46. Hey!!!

No dissing the Garden State....
Look I come from here, Haruka and Lost in VA
Can't be all bad Right????

hmmm K??


:hi:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

33. Well, duh.

:P

[LostinVA]

34. You would think.

How are your plans with Rachael Ray coming along?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

50. Excellent.

Since it's all in my head. :P

[BarenakedLady]

35. Cheers!

:toast:

Missed that rumor, well I basically miss all the rumors. But I'm cool with that.

:hi:

[flvegan]

36. I want to know who in the fuck has the time

in their life/lives to suggest something like this such that it would make ther rounds of the internets.

Jesus Kee-ryst serving Krispy Kremes at a drive-thru, but why can't folks just grow up and get over themselves?

They don't need to "get a life" but rather, they need to get a platinum gift card for therapy.

[LostinVA]

37. "platinum gift card for therapy"

:rofl:

I would just like a gift card for IKEA or Target.

[flvegan]

38. Look

you're getting a big frikkin pit bull from me as a gift. Quit tryin.

BTW, I'd love a pm from you about something that we have in common.

[LostinVA]

39. A pit bull would make Haruka too happy

I told her we're getting a corgi. She said only if we get a German Shepherd, too.

Check your PM.

[flvegan]

44. In that case...you bridezillas are getting two.

I'd like to give her multiple "happiness", in very close succession.

Aw, damn...see what you made me do?

I'm ashamed...

[marzipanni]

48. A Corgi would be just right...

A Dogzilla for the Bridezillas!

[Madspirit]

64. I Have a Corgi...just sayin'...n/t

[LostinVA]

67. I want a Cardigan Corgi

And, I want to name him/her something Welsh.

[AlCzervik]

40. you two have gone to lot of trouble for a rouse.

i don't know what's going on but until i hear something for either one of you i figure your wedding is going ful speed ahead. It's sad someone has nothing better to do than start rumors.

[LostinVA]

54. Yeah -- PacifistPatriot is in on it too.

She went so far as to buy a plane ticket to officiate our fake wedding. You know how those Unitarian ministers are.

[Jamastiene]

41. I never doubted either of you for a second.

And a hearty Congratulations to you both!!! :hug:

[lost-in-nj]

43. I believe you.....

I am so happy for you.
I'm rooting for you!!!!!
I hope to make the ceremony if its convenient!!!

then I will come here and post about it......

:P :toast: :bounce: :bounce:

lost

[Guava Jelly]

45. yeah right

:sarcasm: I must not hang with the wrong people I haven't heard anything..Thats not a bad thing.
Congrats to both of you! (do you still need some one to film the honeymoon) :hide: :rofl:

[dropkickpa]

51. I miss all the rumors

As an avowed celebrity-gossip addict, I don't know how I miss this stuff! Next time, tell the rumor-mongers they need to post on TMZ!!!

Oh yeah, congrats again and I am hoping the Bride-zillas are doin good!:toast:

[LostinVA]

68. I'm pissed it wasn't on TMZ!

Damn Paris Hilton.

[Ava]

52. trust me, people could say much much worse things about you on the internets

[Danger Mouse]

"pals:

[Mz Pip]

53. Congrat!

Wish my son could meet a nice DU woman. His last date was with an investment banker. I suppose she could be a liberal. Maybe. I hope so.

Mz Pip
:dem:

[LostinVA]

70. She could be, but I haven't known too many Progressive bankers!

[Robeson]

55. Congrats to you both! Look forward to the wedding pics!....

...:toast:

[LostinVA]

59. Oh there will be plenty of those!

:toast:

[sniffa]

62. hopefuLLy i Look good in them

that's what matters. :P

[LostinVA]

56. I didn't post this to have people say that believed me, but thank you.

I just wanted to post about what ridiculous rumors people bother to pass around.

[Midlodemocrat]

60. Wow. Just wow. Why would someone do that?

Why be so nasty to a complete stranger? Me, on the other hand, I've met you two, so I have EARNED the right to be nasty.

:P

[LostinVA]

61. Nice post, Hitler.

Some people lead pathetic lives. Who knows what goes on in their crazy little heads.

[LostinVA]

71. dupe

[Madspirit]

63. I NEVER doubted you two....n/t

[tjwmason]

65. Why?

There are some things in this world I will never understand, and this is one of them.


I hasten to add that I refer to the rumour-mongerers - it's damn obvious why the two of you are going to get hitched...two hot, charming, witty lesbians what else is going to happen?

[JackBeck]

66. Point them out to me, OK?

My brother instincts are kicking in and I'm ready to tear someone a new one.

Why would anyone make-up such nonsense?

[foreigncorrespondent]

72. Never heard the rumors...

...but then, I don't hear much anymore. LOL But I am so glad you guys are still intending to tie the knot. When is the big day, so I can have you both in my thoughts, and drink a toast or twenty for you guys?

[LostinVA]

75. Check your PM

[TorchTheWitch]

73. Oh piss on what people say or what they think!

Who the hell are they anyway?

Big congrats and a lifetime of happiness to both you and Haruka!

And I wanna see the wedding pictures... I just love wedding pictures.

[LostinVA]

74. I think I'll set up a Flickr page for photos

And send the link to whomever wants to see the photos.

[TorchTheWitch]

76. good idea

Could you PM me when they're up? I don't get to get into DU as often as I'd like and I don't want to miss the thread with the link for them.

Looking forward to ooohing and ahhhing over the photos. Got my hankies ready (why do I always get mushy over wedding pictures?)

Soooo.... when is the big day? What are you wearing? Where's it to be held? What about flowers, food, attendants... Details, details! Come on now... I'm female... you can't just go and drop this wedding bomb on me without all the delicious details! LOL!

[RagingInMiami]

77. Do you need a wedding photographer?

Congratulations

[Writer]

78. Some people are much too wrapped in other people's personal lives/choices.

And I will be terse here, but some - SOME - people need to get offline and start living their real lives a bit more
