    [QUOTE]Sarah's FI is hot, agreed. And I'm liking the mussy-haired version of Anna's FI.

    Yeah, I wish he didn't have to be all professional and stuff and could keep the frat boy hair. Frat boy hair is my secret (and embarassing) weakness.

    How goes it? Tell us about yourself.
    I'm 30 and FI is 28. I am a forensic nurse specializing in sexual assault and he is a cruelty investigator with animal services. He gets to arrest people for being mean to animals. I love his job.

    Are you engaged?
    Yes!

    How'd your FI ask? (short story please)
    On one knee in our living room after a Percy Sledge concert. We had picked out the ring together, and I already knew it was going to be that weekend, and he was still nervous. It was so sweet.

    Have you been lurking for a while, or did you just show up?
    I posted on other boards, and mostly lurked this one for a while. Then just figured I liked the people on this one the best so started posting.

    How has wedding planning been for you?
    Not too bad. Ready to just be married already.

    Mandy wants to know if you like pizza?
    I love pizza! Plain cheese with extra cheese is my fav.

    Alix wants to know if you like vampires, and which ones?
    Not really into vampires.

    Team Peeta or Team Gale?
    No clue what that is.

    Why don't you post more often? Do you think you will now?
    I am usually only able to post in the mornings after FI leaves for work. He gets a little jealous of my TK time. Or he tries to read over my shoulder, which drives me nuts.

    Oh - animals, do you have any? I'm sure a cute picture of an animal would make you some friends here.
    I have 3 dogs. All of them are rescues, love them like they are my children.

    Hot FI's make friends fast too. Got one? Let us be the judge. 
    I'll put him in my siggy. :)

    [QUOTE]Hey there.  How are you? <strong>Fine, Thank you. 
    </strong>  We haven't had a round of introductions in a while and I see a lot of new names.  How goes it?  Tell us about yourself. <strong>I am 27, I teach Art to middle school kids.  I am finishing my masters. I have recently gotten into running, and am running in a marathon relay in two weeks. I like to travel, and obviously anything art related.  I also like beer, a lot. 
    </strong>Are you engaged?  <strong>Yes. Getting married in July. </strong>How'd your FI ask?  (short story please) <strong>Totally suprised me while snowshoeing. Its was cute. I was so suprised I asked him if he was serious. :)
    </strong>Have you been lurking for a while, or did you just show up?<strong>I have been lurking a lot, posting more recently. Although I dont' have a lot of time to post, especially during the day. But there are usually a few topics that catch my eye. 
    </strong> How has wedding planning been for you? <strong>Good, though recently I am totally over it. 
    </strong> Mandy wants to know if you like pizza? <strong>YES. Although it does NOT help me fit into my dress :(  </strong>Alix wants to know if you like vampires, and which ones? <strong>Ummmm, I don't know. I like Brad Pitt from Interview with a Vampire. </strong>Team Peeta or Team Gale? <strong>For me or for Katniss? I think she made the right choice, But for me, I am a Gale kind of girl. 
    </strong>Why don't you post more often? <strong>No time. </strong> Do you think you will now?<strong> I will  try. 
    </strong> Oh - animals, do you have any? <strong>Two dogs and a cat.  My cat is not fat, he is normal sized but pretty cool.  One dog is in my avatar, I have a border collie and a mini-aussie (he's my baby) the collie is more of my FI's dog. </strong>  I'm sure a cute picture of an animal would make you some friends here. <strong>I will get back to you. </strong> Hot FI's make friends fast too.  Got one?  <strong>I certainly like to think so :)

    [QUOTE]How goes it?  Tell us about yourself. I'm 24 and I work in support for a company that helps other businesses save money on their utility bills as well as sell Creative Memories merchandise as a Independent Consultant. I have a degree in Elementary Education and I continue to look for and apply for jobs there...it's just not such a great market at the moment. I'm just happy to have a job, honestly. I'm Christian and my faith and church family are very important to me. I enjoy scrapbooking, reading, playing my flute, and being outdoors. Are you engaged?  How'd your FI ask?  (short story please) Yes, he asked me on the rooftop of the tallest building in Cinci. :) Down on one knee and everything. Even got a stranger to take pictures of us with his nice camera. Have you been lurking for a while, or did you just show up? I pretty much just showed up. How has wedding planning been for you? Great! I'm ahead on some things and just about right on others. Our date is June 9,2012, so I feel like I still have tons of time..although I need to get that reception hall booked ASAP in my mind. Mandy wants to know if you like pizza? You betcha! I'll try pretty much anything on it too. <strong>Mellow Mushroom = best pizza</strong> ever...now I want to go Alix wants to know if you like vampires, and which ones? Well I am a huge fan of Twillight but I'm on Team Jacob. Team Peeta or Team Gale? I have no idea what this is. Why don't you post more often?  Do you think you will now? I think I post pretty consistently, just haven't been here long enough to rack up tons of posts. Oh - animals, do you have any? I have a cat that I love dearly. His name is Baxter. I'm trying to e-mail myself a picture of him but my phone connection is pretty terrible in my office. Will try to add it later. :) And my FI is adorable. :)

    Hey there.  How are you?  We haven't had a round of introductions in a while and I see a lot of new names.   Hiya Ladies!

    How goes it?  Tell us about yourself.

    Are you engaged?  How'd your FI ask?  (short story please) I'm an old married hag-married for a year and about 4 months. Alex proposed on spring break, at a B&B at Lake of the Ozarks.

    Have you been lurking for a while, or did you just show up? I lurked for a long time, but I've been posting quite a bit for the last few months or so.

    How has wedding planning been for you? It was fine. It would have been better if I wasn't trying to plan a wedding during law school.

    Mandy wants to know if you like pizza? Love pizza!

    Alix wants to know if you like vampires, and which ones? I do like vampires, especially Jasper and Emmett, but I like the werewolves more :)

    Team Peeta or Team Gale? Team Peeta! (And Team Finnick!)

    Why don't you post more often?  Do you think you will now? I seem to miss a lot of the good threads. And I'm always late to the Good Morning thread.

    Oh - animals, do you have any?  I'm sure a cute picture of an animal would make you some friends here. I'm trying to convince H that we need a cat. I have as yet been unsuccessful.

    Hot FI's make friends fast too.  Got one?  Let us be the judge.
    well, *I* think he's pretty darn cute. Let me find a picture

    HAHA - we had just finished up painting the bathroom on a Sunday (which means that there are NO pictures because I look like pooo and totally covered in paint).  We were eating some crab claws that my parents had brought over and drinking the wine.  I turn around and he's shoving a claw in my face and asking me to inspect the "funny looking meat."  Turns out he had wrapped the ring in a napkin and shoved it in to the claw. 

    When I realized it was a napkin, I called him a smartass and flung the napkin out of the claw - ring and all.  OOOPS!  <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-embarassed.gif" border="0" alt="Embarassed" title="Embarassed" />

    How goes it?  Tell us about yourself.  I'm Lindsay and I'd be much better if I was at home instead of at work :)

    Are you engaged?  How'd your FI ask?  (short story please)  Yes, getting married 8/12.  FI proposed at a winery in front of a group of my friends.  He asked someone to take a pictures of us because we had an empty frame at home.  Turns out he wanted someone to capture the engagement for me.

    Have you been lurking for a while, or did you just show up?  I had never been on here until FI proposed.

    How has wedding planning been for you?  Fantastic!  My mom and I are having a great time with it!

    Mandy wants to know if you like pizza?  Of course!  Pepperoni please.  Oh and thin crust - I am a St Louis gal after all!

    Alix wants to know if you like vampires, and which ones?  Team Edward

    Team Peeta or Team Gale?  Gale.  Oh how I love HG

    Why don't you post more often?  Do you think you will now?  I feel like I post all the time - it's a great way to kill time on my work breaks.

    Oh - animals, do you have any?  I'm sure a cute picture of an animal would make you some friends here.  I want a puppy but FI and I both work and go to school so we're not home enough right now :(

    Trying this again, because the post went all wonky last time for some reason....

    How goes it? Tell us about yourself.
    FI and I are both 25. I'm graduating from law school in a couple of weeks, and in October I'll start in the tax group of a firm in Texas. I'm from Louisiana, and we're both huge LSU fans.

    Are you engaged? How'd your FI ask? (short story please)
    Yes, he made me peppermint hot chocolate and asked me on his balcony last November after LSU beat Bama. 

    Have you been lurking for a while, or did you just show up?
    I've lurked since I got engaged, just recently started posting more. 

    How has wedding planning been for you?
    Easy. I wanted to have a tiny wedding, my parents wanted this huge to-do, so I gave in but the compromise is, mom's in charge of planning!

    Mandy wants to know if you like pizza?
    Love it! FI doesn't like veggie pizza though so I love ordering it when I'm home alone :D

    Alix wants to know if you like vampires, and which ones?
    Not really, I never got into Twilight or True Blood

    Teem Peeta or Team Gale?
    Also have no idea what this is

    Why don't you post more often? Do you think you will now?
    I've been posting more now that school is winding down, and I might be around this summer depending on how intense bar studying gets. 

    Oh - animals, do you have any?
    I have two cats I adopted from the local rescue. One is sweet as pie, the other is a hell raiser. It's a pretty good balance, I adore them both. If I can figure out how to post a photo, I will.

    How goes it?  Tell us about yourself. I work (retail) and go to school full time. I'll be applying to pharmacy schools this year and will hopefully start next fall.

    Are you engaged?  How'd your FI ask?  (short story please)
    Yes. My FI attached the ring and a bell to our dog's collar. When I went to investigate the noise, I saw the ring.

    Have you been lurking for a while, or did you just show up?
    I've been lurking for awhile. I do post, just not very regularly.

    How has wedding planning been for you?
    So far, I have loved planning my wedding. I wish I had more time to spend on it.

    Mandy wants to know if you like pizza?
    Absolutely. I'm from Chicago, so I think it's a requirement.

    Alix wants to know if you like vampires, and which ones?
    Love vampires. Edward from Twilight and Eric from True Blood.

    Team Peeta or Team Gale?
    Team Peeta all the way.

    Why don't you post more often?  Do you think you will now?
    I don't really have a lot of free time. Or rather, I shouldn't have much free time. I try to limit my procrastination, so I read a lot of threads but don't post.

    Oh - animals, do you have any?  I'm sure a cute picture of an animal would make you some friends here.
    I have two Yorkies. They are in my sig pic.

    Hot FI's make friends fast too.  Got one?  Let us be the judge.
    Here's his pic.

    He is kind of delicious in that picture, Alix.

    I confess I didn't like any of the Twilight books, but I really hated the last one because the only characters I could tolerate were pretty much in absentia for most of it.
