Ordinarily I tell engaged men that being engaged should be limited to 6 months (the "of hell" is silent) and that they are jeapardizing their love by pro-longing the stress of engagement for longer than that. This is the 12 year married man who spent 10 months as a fiance speaking, not the divorce-lawyer side of me.
We'll cut slack on the long engagement because of the involvement of the Roy Suite, and the Pixie dust involved in all this. Though I stand by my assessment of the engagement as torture and hellish, I suppose if my own engagement had been in reality a work up toward a
Disney Cruise, it would have been just fine.
So, to review: 1) yes dear; 2) whatever YOU like; 3) of COURSE I'm glad you want your mother in the other bedroom of the suite during the cruise--wouldn't have it any other way; 4) yes, my mother will wear beige and say nothing; 5) I agree, three full sets of china and serving pieces is a something we need; 6) Sure, I always wanted a cat, I just never said anything about it before, yes, bring her home; 7) Miss the super bowl to go look at patterns with you? uh, of course, Dear; 8) I didn't really want the 60 inch plasma screen and ESPN football package anyway; 9) No, my sisters don't have to be in the wedding party just because you suggested I ask your brother to be my best man, they won't say anything about it;
but mostly:
All's Well That Involves A Disney Cruise!!
All the best always, and don't ever become a client of mine....
