Introduce Yourself!

ConKFA319 · December 2012

Tiffany, Neil Fallon looked at me once when I went to one of their shows in Atlantic City. H swears that he looked at HIM, though. Um, no. It was me. IT WAS ME!

They put on a killer live show, though. If you guys haven't gone to see them live yet, do it. It's amazing.

ConKFA319 · December 2012

Yeah, I looked for years for a graphic design job that wasn't freelance. Turns out, though, that everyone in the market for a graphic designer also wants them to be a web designer. And since I know absolutely jack about web design, no job for me. Wahh wahhhh

Damn my vaguely busy mornings! I'm always late to the fun on this board.

Yours & SO Name: Courtney and Rob

Married/Engaged: Engaged on December 17, 2011. To be Married June 1, 2013.

How long have you been a knottie? Since like a day or two after getting engaged.

What's you favorite thing about hanging out here? Having people to chat with while I'm bored and work and stuck in my office. Though I keep missing the threads here because I'm always busy in the mornings and they die down by the time I wander over here. Boo.

<div>This is <em>exactly</em> why I've been stuck at my current job for years. While it's partially my own fault I haven't take the initiative to learn all the web stuff, at the same time I also just don't <em>want</em> to do web. But apparently I can't live in the stone age forever wearing my rose colored glasses thinking that I don't need to know these things to advance my career. </div><div>
</div><div>I currently work in newspaper publishing, doing the layout of our papers and creating ads. It's not that bad, but ideally I'd like to be a design firm creating logos and identities, things of that nature. </div><div>
</div><div>ETA: You should see my college diploma. It looks like I went to the fanciest college ever. For years I had to frame other people's diplomas and told myself that when the time came to frame mine, I'd make it look awesome. The paper is probably only 8x10, but has a fillet, a mat, and 2.5 inch thick frame around it. </div>

Yours & SO Name: Carrie and Scotty

Married/Engaged: Engaged at Disneyland December 17 2011, Married July 14 2012
CNF we have the same engagement date!!!

How long have you been a knottie?
Since Christmas 2009 when my sister an dI had too much wine and created fake accounts with fake husbands. To this day my TK wedding website still lists me as married to Tony Goldwyn, and my sister to Taylor Lautner

What's you favorite thing about hanging out here?
All the crazy people. I totally get not knowing one or two things about etiquette, but I grew up with my parents throwing big parties ALL the time. It blows my mind how some people don't just GET how to host people.

Oh and Buzz - I think our siggy pics are soulmates.

Thanks! We got SO lucky. If you've ever meandered through my pics, it was blue sky and sunny up until the ceremony was over, and then a massive storm rolled in and we got a lot of stormy windy pics, too. It was the best of both worlds, and it's like God smiled down on this cinematographer's wedding.

<div>Swag, your pic is probably my second favorite sig picture (second to mine). I've actually looked through all the photos you've linked in your sig and they're so nice. I've been meaning to mention that for awhile, it just never fit into conversation. </div><div>

Oh I forgot, we were engage on November 29th, 2008 at Silverado Vineyards in Napa Valley.

Lia- I'm not sure Stage posts here often.

cwaggoner07 · December 2012

Buzz - Thank you!!! H was in charge of choosing a photographer and he did a great job. I love H for all the normal reasons, but I am also so glad I married someone as unique and creative as him. I have like, no sense of style or creativity and had just resigned myself to having a drab boring non-pinteresty life until I met him. And I'm like, WHOA please pick out all of my outfits and design our entire house THANK YOU.

UM OK I realize that makes him sound effeminate and he's not really. Just super artsy.

cwaggoner07 · December 2012

Edie - Can you not post pics of some of your tattoos because they are in certain places????

[QUOTE]kd. your sig pics is one of my favorites. I like casual poses like that more than the smile at the camera awkwardly while hoping your eyes aren't too squinty, but also not too surprised. Swag, I'm with Edie. I love my husband, but I have to keep explaining to him why posters with torn edges are not suitable decor for an adult household. <strong>If I let him pick, it would be a big college dorm in here.
</strong>Posted by Liatris2010[/QUOTE]

HA! I think I got lucky then. My H is past the poster stage of life. But he still doesnt see my vision for anything when it comes to the house.

And thanks for the compliment. It was the end of a 3 hour photo shoot through Charleston and our photog wanted one last shot and remembered this building. So he just said, ok you're done, you're tired and you can do no more. This was the result.
