Hey Ladies!
Hey y'all!
I've been lurking here off and on for a few years now. I stumbled across this when I was helping my best friend plan her wedding then again when I was helping my sister plan her wedding. I have to admit in the past lurking has kept me sane, especially right around the 5 year mark when everyone and their mother was asking when we were getting engaged, so I figured it's time that I jump in and possibly help others stay sane the way y'all helped me! Also, it'll help keep my mind off school when it gets way to stressful!
A bit about me and the boyfriend... we're both 26 and we've been together for a little bit over 6 1/2 years. I'm currently a grad student and he's doing the 9 to 5 corporate job thing while deciding what he wants to study when he goes back for his masters.
We've been living together for about 4 years now and we're considering expanding our little family to include a cute fur-baby... either a German shorthaired pointer or a Doberman... we're not sure what breed would be best for us yet... we're still in the research phase!
I'm really excited to become an active part of the board!

Re: Hey Ladies!
And are you planning to shop or adopt?
We're thinking of adopting from a rescue... it's hard to think of buying one when there are so many who are abandoned and given up just waiting to be adopted.

Well you have my vote : )
Totally agree with how lurking keeps you sane at times.

Good girl! If you ever feel like talking about Harry Potter, I don't get sick of it.
Thanks for the welcome everyone!!

Angie- thanks! What kind of animal did you rescue?
BF and I have recently come to answering with denial/blank stares. It gets some great responses (but probably doesn't work on sweet grandmothers.)
For instance, while resigning our lease (we did it separately due to work schedules,) our office manager asked "so when's the big day?" (to each of us separately.)
My response: "Never?"
BF's response: "What big day?"
(sarcasm win)
Our office manager obviously thinks we're psychotic. We're not.
Those are mainly reserved for strangers/acquaintances... I don't have many quick witty ones for the family. Well I do, but they're not nice so I don't bust 'em out. I do think them though and laugh to myself...
