Sweet, someone who's as obsessed with getting married as I am! It's not that I want to get married tomorrow or anything, I just really like the idea of a giant, awesome party celebrating... me. And my awesome future-husband. That used to pretty much encapsulate my reasons for wanting to get married (so I guess it was a wedding that I wanted, not really a marriage). But now, the whole relationship-that-lasts-forever thing is rather appealing as well. And then we could do awesome things like live together and get a puppy and have babies and wear really lame matching old-people clothes when we're old ( ... )

"I always thought there were certain criteria my potential husband would have to fulfill, but they were all superficial/boring things. In retrospect, now that I think I've found the guy I want to marry (yeah, I said it), there are other, more tangible, and maybe more weird things that seem really vital. Like I need him to love children an awful lot, because I'm kind of afraid that I won't be able to love my kids enough. And I need him to value my job as much, if not more, than his own... cause he might have to move to Ohio or Georgia or some other crazy place so I can study monkeys. And I need him to be interested in random things and activities, cause sometimes I need a push to do that. Basically, instead of just wanting someone that would make me happy, I think I now want someone who will make me better."

Wow, Shil. You took the words out of my mouth. There's just nothing left to say!

Um, wrong pic. Not like it's bad, but it feels silly/inappropriate.
