Mine was a bit less directive. She may have thought that, but it was more a campaign of wearing me down by pointing out the economic/logistical benefit and engaging friends who have already moved to reinforce those notions. I am not much of a romantic although I can be sentimental. I think we made the plans right after her concerted effort to convince me she would be unable to pull the plug on me should I become hospitalized. Playing on my biggest fear of being kept alive and trapped by western medical practitioners - I capitulated and here we are. The wedding itself was not unlike Brooklyn 99's first wedding between Holt and Kevin. I, too, wished the officiant had been more efficient.
