Sooooo, for those of you who don’t follow either of us on Facebook, Liz and i FINALLY got married!!!!!

4 years ago, i took a trip to the US and travelled all over, from California to Texas, Chicago to North Carolina visiting Tumblr writers along the way. During my adventure, one of the TWC faithful i dropped in on was @lizletsgo, (someone i had been chatting with on IM for quite a bit and had written some collab pieces with) and what can i say.... It was instant :) 

Several more trips across the globe, live bands, cafes, caravan parks, kangaroos and a proposal. A quick investigation of what it would take to relocate and it was time to make the arrangements!!! (let me tell you, the Visa process is a tedious one :/ and we’re not even fully finished yet!)

Finally, i arrived Stateside May of this year and shortly thereafter we eloped to a gorgeous reclaimed cotton mill. It was basic, but beautiful, with Liz’s dear friends as witness and the BEST butterscotch root beer you will ever drink (Dang!) I tell ya, married life is treating this expat very very well and we have so many plans for the future (now we just need a shit-ton of money hahahaha)

I’ve known of several relationships that have unfolded on Tumblr but i believe this may well be the first Tumblr marriage!?!?!

Anywho, as you were - just wanted to share the good news now that we have our fancy photos  :D

I don't know exactly what's up, but you'll be in my thoughts! I know I've been busy but I'm always here if you want to chat, and I will always be rooting for you from afar!

I AM A POET

Oh, but there is this one thing - tell us in short poetics what kind of poet you are!

i'm glad you are well, love! i don't recognise that brand but i'm sure that clipper or twinings do a similar version so i'll keep a look out for it when im next in the city on friday!

defense-mechanisms said:Listen for the “eh” and overuse of “buddy” for Canadian dialect ;) (I’m just kidding, we do sound remarkably similar)

Future forged fireflies alighting

nightly

on tender spindle fingers

Switches flicked to twinkle picture perfect

glowing poetry, effortlessly

Electric elegance causing ink

to dance

as they wink their romantic stanzas

lizletsgo replied to your post “hey im sorry about the poem that got taken from you, this is not my tumblr im just checking it for my friend who is in the hospital at the moment and that's why she hasn't seen that you want it taken down, I honestly don't know how so I cant help you and she cant do anything about it. again sorry but really I don't see how it is a big deal so what if something's were changed its on the internet anyone can do what they want with it and she wasn't saying it was her work”

report to tumblr, get them on the plagiarism watchlist. I'm calling bullshit... serial plagiarists give excuses like this often bc they don't want to admit they're in the wrong. get well soon, letsbeforeverinlove. & by get well I mean STOP STEALING.

I thought I would be nice and not call bullshit just yet (though I want to) since I have been monitoring their activity for the past day or so and have only seen one fresh post (which is when I decided to give them a set time limit), so it is plausible. Likely? I'm not sure. But I have said my piece, and I will stick to my 24 hour bit and then report as necessary.

I'd be nervous, too (not because you have reason, with all of your proof, but because sometimes authority figures are dicks). ugh. wishing you much luck!!

Thanks Liz! It's good to hear your opinion, because I know you go to a lot of shows. Yeah, a lot of authority ppl can be dicks, but I'm just gonna be nice about it if I get turned away and contact customer service for a refund since it's not for lack of trying, just an unfortunate circumstance!

(Sorry for the personal-spam, guys. This one had more ppl to ask than my other blog)

obviously I'm not in Canada, but if I go to the local dmv they can print out a duplicate driver's license while I'm there (for a fee). I've had to move so often I usually just pay a fee online to update my address and have them mail me a new one.

The ID I lost was from my home province and was never switched to where I am now. I obviously need to switch it to this province now, because I can't afford to go home just to get a duplicate (Alberta is archaic), but in order to do that I need a new credit card which is in the mail for my abstract and experience letter. 

I don't see why they wouldn't let me in with all the supporting info that I am above 19, but I'm nervous about them turning me away. You'd think any layman worker who sees a passport, copy of a birth certificate and credit card statement would let it pass, but I;m an anxious ball of worry.
