Let’s spend our lives together

by tdaxp ~ May 14th, 2007

I write many things, but I do not know how to write it.

I don’t know how to say it.

And you know my voice — you would not want me to try to sing it!

Unlike you I am not an artist. I cannot draw it or paint it.

More than I can write, say, sing, draw, or paint,

I love you.

Feifei,

Will you marry me?

    Congrats to you both!

  8. phil

    That's great news! Congratulations.

  9. Shoebob

    OK, for someone that likes the blog, visits occassionally, but isn't in the know, what's his fiance do that's so unusual that makes this union special (besides the fact that they love each other?)

  10. PurpleSlog

    Well, how many proposals and acceptances by blog post have there been? :-)

  11. John Fulwider

    Best wishes, Dan.

    To Shoebob — the only thing that needs to be special is that they love each other. Rare, and precious.

  12. Phil

    Congratulations, Dan and Fei. I've never seen a blog proposal before. But it seems to have worked out just fine :-)

  13. Michael

    That is quite possibly the goofiest approaches to the task that I have ever seen. You're not from SD are you? ;-) Congratulations!

  14. Lexington Green

    Been married 15 years. 5 kids.

    Marrying my wife is the only smart decision I have made on a major issue as an adult.

    You guys are going to do great.

    Congratulations. Bravo. Good luck.

  15. Eddie

    Congrats Dan & Fei, I am so happy for both of you and hope your marriage can happen relatively soon if that is what you both desire.

    I am in the engaged/marriage waiting period now and I can't wait for the day to finally arrive mid-next year.

    (Dan, what a neat, heartfelt way to ask the girl you love to share your future and world with her, I think its awesome!).

  16. a517dogg

    Congratulations!

    You're dorks. I love it.

    I'd propose to my girlfriend (of over 3 years) on my blog but I don't think she even reads it!

  17. shane

    Here's to the roses and lilies in bloom,
    to you and Fei's arms and she in your room,
    a door that is locked,
    a key that is lost,
    a bird, a bottle, a bed badly tossed,
    and a night that is 50 years long!

    Congratulations!

  18. biz

    I can't believe I missed this for a whole day!

    Congratulations Mr. Dan and Fei!

    I can't wait for the traditional american fajitas and baby sacrifice at the wedding!

  19. Rob

    I've got a feeling this will be an interesting wedding. I look forward to it. Congratulations! I intend on filming the baby sacrifice, by the way.

  20. Shoebob

    Sorry, didn't mean to sound cynical. No intention. As a newlywed, I fully understand how momentous a moment this is, and I wish them the best.

    Just some of the posts were referencing some unusual aspects to their relationship, and I thought it might be that she was a blogger too, or that they met through a blog, etc.

    But you're right, having it all on the blog is pretty neat in and of itself.

    Slainte to the affianced.

  21. Uncle Paul

    You two will have the most interesting children ever born! May you have a life of excitement and adventure! Together, that is.

  22. The American Family

    YES!!!

  23. Jay@Soob

    Wow. Congratulations Dan and Fei!

  24. Brendan

    So her parents do in fact like pie eh?

    Congrats!

  25. Younghusband

    Holy crap! Congratulations!

  26. Adam

    Congratulations!

  27. Sean

    btw, mind if i keep humming the subject of this post to the tune 'Let's spend the night together' by the Stones? ;-)

  28. zenpundit

    Congratulations to you both !!!! I'm betting though that Dan has the better of the deal here v:O)

    (” Fei, Do you take this man..and his laptop…forever as you both shall blog ?”)

  29. Karl Gallagher

    Heh. And I thought it was nerdy for my wife and I to IM each other at home so the kids didn't overhear us.

    Congrats and best wishes!

  30. Aaron

    It is about time someone put Dan to work. Enjoy repainting the kitchen every few years for the next 50 or so!

    Congratulations!

  31. Sean

    hooray! i have been waiting for this good news for a long time!

    congratulations both of you!

    (was this really done totally online?)

  32. Dan tdaxp

    YES!!!

  33. Fei

    Unlike you I am not a professional blogger, But I can cook :)
    I don't know how to say so many things, but I can make your favorite type of stew beef.

    I love you.

    ^_^…*Yes*

  34. Shoebob

    Sorry if I came across sounding snide or cynical, that was not my intention at all. I herald the happy couple's engagement.

    It was just that some of the previous posts seemed to indicate something else unique about the couple, like they were both bloggers, or they met on a blog, etc.

    But then, a blog-agement is pretty cool too.

    Sorry if I sounded snarky.

  35. Shoebob

    OK, new to posting blogs, so I mistake timeouts as not posting, hence my double posting.

    Connectivity is a bear out at sea.

  36. Isaac

    NICE ONE!

    Sto Lat, Stary!

    I echo Zen's sentiments… Will the wedding be streamed?

    Congratulations, again.

    Isaac

  37. TDL

    Dan,
    Congratulations. All the best and a long fruitful life.

    TDL

  38. ry

    I sure did pick a bad time to have 'puter problems.

    Congrats Dan and Fei! (Now Dan will know what's like to have someone yelling 'Will you get off that stupid thing, come in here, and…' too. :0) ).

    Lady and Lord Tdaxp has a nice ring to it, don't it?

  39. Daniel Nexon

    Belated congratulations!

  40. Curzon

    Belated congratulations here also! And very best wishes.

  41. Larry Dunbar

    But has her hair grown back yet!

    Sorry, just found out about the good news. Congratulations to both of you. It seems like only yesterday she was shaving.

  42. Dan tdaxp

    That was a mutual friend of ours (Lady of tdaxp's next-door neighbor). :-)

  43. Larry Dunbar

    Well she sure looked “artistic” anyway. Ha! my mistake!
