However, now that I live in Colorado I really miss being able to get in the car and go. I hope to get over there within the next year or so with my fiance, Nathan. I really want to go with him...just me and him and the world of Disney. I think that we would have fun and it would be something that we would remember forever. Although, by the time we go he will be my husband...oh man, that sounded weird...husband. Anyway, that's another topic for another day. Well, to those of you who are going to Disneyland soon, please have fun for me!

Originally Posted By MaidMarian21 Well, October is definitely NOT going to happen...I am paying for this wedding myself and all my money is going into that. I was thinking of going next April when I am down in Hemet for my friends wedding.

Originally Posted By MaidMarian21 Well, mom is helping out a little, but she can't do much because she has her own life and she isn't working right now...and I am not sure what the heck is dad's problem, but, yeah, I have to do this alone. Laurie and Nathan can't help because she doesn't have a job and Nathan has bills to pay...so, I am working my butt off and paying alittle at a time and doing monthly payments. This wedding will cost me alittle over $6,000 and I am paying 95% of it...oh well, I budget my money really well and I don't have many other bills, so I think I can do it. Maybe dad will change his mind and help alittle. Anyway, I want to go at least one full day in April with Nathan...and then maybe go another day with Stephanie and her fiance (the friend getting married)...but, I will see how everything goes in the next few months with money and moving. Nathan and I want to move to Washington in February/March.

Originally Posted By MaidMarian21 Well, I really don't want to let my friend down because I am suppose to be in her wedding, so I am also saving for that. Nathan and I are planning on using or income tax money to move to Washington, so if I use that money for moving and still use other money to save, then I should be able to do it...again, I will just play it by ear. If dad does decide to help, then I should be okay to go out there AND go to Disneyland.
Originally Posted By SoThisIsLove Okay, MaidMarian21, dear, here's what you do: go to the justice of the peace, take that $6k and have the honeymoon of the century at DL. Tell all of your guests to start saving for car/airfare and at least a one-day park hopper and tell them that the reception will be at the Billy show at 5 pm. You know I'm just kidding. DH and I had a teeny wedding and our honeymoon was driving to his next military base. Our humble beginnings were just fine and very romantic, but I do understand the yearning for a big ol' wedding. Best of luck to you and Robin. May all of your fondest dreams come true. xoxo

Originally Posted By SoThisIsLove LOL! Okay, okay...just be sure to invite William Shatner. Just for old times' sake. You can have your new-fangled Trekkie fun, too, but you have to have old school represent.
Originally Posted By knightnfrees Alright, I'll...make it so! First we have to get...Engaged! I can see the reception! We'll have Klingon Blood Wine and for the kids in the group, a Spockolate shake...served in a collectible tribble glass.

Originally Posted By knightnfrees Spock Love Potion, #9, cold! I watched a lot of ST: TOS in my former job...had to QC them. I hadn't seen one in it's entirety before.

When are you going to post some pics on the Flickr site. I am DYING to know what you look like! Or email me or something. Sheesh. You Trekkers are all alike. One or two quick posts and it's off to boast and brag with the other nerds.
