She said “Yes!”

| I caught a keeper! (And no, that’s not the actual ring.) |
When I was 11 years old, I had no idea where life was going to take me.
Regardless, I’m absolutely certain that the 11-year-old that I once was would be proud — nay, deliriously ecstatic! – to know that the older, wiser me would one day announce my engagement to a beautiful woman (a middle-school teacher, no less!) on the front page of a publication called Turdhead.com.
So here it is: I’m getting married. I officially asked this weekend, and she officially said yes.
Somehow I doubt my fiancee’s inner 11-year-old ever dreamed she’d see such an announcement under the “Turdhead.com” banner (or be happy about it, if she did), but hey, her adult self is well aware of what she’s getting into. And besides, she’s pretty cool.
And if she’s still speaking to me after she sees this, the 11-year-old in me is looking forward to a long and happy life with her.
Stay tuned for details!
June is definitely Hurricane season!
I don’t know how many of you watch hockey these days, but I just have to say: You should.
The NHL playoffs this year have been amazing so far, and I look forward to watching the Carolina Hurricanes take the Stanley Cup this month.
Rod Brind’Amour, Cam Ward, and all the other ‘Canes players have put their hometown — Raleigh, N.C. (Or rather, “the Raleigh-Durham Metropolitan Statistical Area”) — on the map this year (Really! It’s on the right-hand side, under Washington, D.C.), and they deserve all the applause they’re getting at the RBC Center this week.
Sorry Oilers fans, but at the risk of sounding like someone who doesn’t spend all day hunched over a keyboard… Go ‘Canes!
