Howdy, y'all. Before you ask, the good news is not that I'm returning to the game. Byaina is still active, but I haven't been on in a looong friggin' time and will probably finally choke it down and cancel before too long. The news is quite different, in fact. Many of you know that I met Gunslinger (who is still actively playing) on FFXI about two years ago and have been dating him for a year and a few months. We started out long-distance, with him in California and myself in Virginia, until he moved to be with me a year ago today. Then I moved to California to be with him, and here we remain.
Anyway, Gunslinger proposed to me this past Sunday, and I'm very happy to announce our engagement. :) We're probably not the only couple to meet on the game and decide to get married in real life, but we're the only ones I know of, so that's something. There are no current plans to have the wedding FFXI-themed, not in the least because I don't even play anymore, lol. The ring is lovely (QUITE lovely), we are aiming for an early fall wedding on the East Coast next year, and no other details are forthcoming. Other than the fact that we're toying with the idea of webcasting the event for our in-game buddies to share.
So that's the news. Pretty neat, huh?
