Let me take a pause before this one
August 3, 2009
You know how they say, “A man’s gotta do, what a man’s gotta do”. There might be some sense in that. I think most of you would say that it has made sense in some situation or the other. I agree. I’ve used it a number of times as an excuse for something I did without thinking about, or as an excuse to do something I couldn’t find a reason for. I’ve used it as a reason to do go ahead and jump over the line when I knew there was no easy way of justifying it. I’ve even used it as an excuse to not do anything at all. It’s worked well every time.
Around a month ago I found myself at a point where I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I knew exactly what I needed. I had clarity and I could justify it to myself completely. Nonetheless, I was repeating to myself, “A man’s gotta do, what a man’s gotta do”. Again and again, till I gathered up all the courage I had, and then some more. I wished once more for everything I had ever wanted, and then asked Fiona to marry me. That day, I didn’t care for anything I wished for. My wishes didn’t make me feel the same way as asking her to spend her life with me did. That day I knew Fiona was worth more to me than anything I could every wish for. That day my wishes became secondary and I knew clearly what I wanted.
Ladies and gentlemen, please let me introduce to you, my fiancée, Ms Fiona J Craig.

Ms Fiona J Craig
Some of you have met her already, and some know of her. We met last year in Oslo and got engaged on Midsummer Night (23rd June, 2009). I’ll leave the detailed introductions for when you meet her (hopefully later this year).
We haven’t planned anything concrete yet. We’re just getting ready to fulfill our wishes now, together. She’s making faster progress on that one, as you can see.

Delegation of the housewife duties
And yes, I think I owe some explanations to everyone I wrote my earlier post (What’s up with you???? Seriously.) for. To make my stand clear, let me just say, it’s the two of us now to spoil you/your kids
Cheers and good night !!
