Hello Again, and Thank You!

I just wanted to say hello once again to any old friends who may be still kicking around on these boards as well as any new folks I don't know presently. Its been about a year since I've been active on here and I've certainly missed it. A lot has been going on for me personally, which is part of the reason for my absence. I actually inadvertently met my wife-to-be on these boards (funny how life works huh?) and we're getting married this November. In all honesty, neither of us would have even joined this forum (we weren't really the online discussion types) but we got the badge for the BG:EE pre-order and that sparked our interest. She's from Canada and I'm from the States and I have to say, interviews at the border crossings certainly were a bit weird and funny. "Where'd you meet?" Online. "A dating site?" No, a video game forum. "Which game?" Baldur's Gate. "Isn't that an old game?" lol. But all that aside, truly, I want to say a big "Thank you" to the folks who made this game and the community surrounding it possible. As corny as it sounds, I wouldn't be where I am today in my life without your hard work. Best $19.99 I ever spent!

Congratulations and I hope your wedding will be the happiest day of your life!!
Welcome back!
Since last we met, I spawned a mortal progeny... Who says it's too late to become a dad on seeing your 7th millennium!
So happy for you and your fiancée!
@meagloth - Thanks! @Kristie83 is my fiancée, she hasn't been on for awhile but is looking to get back into Baldur's Gate when she's finished with Diablo III. We both also enjoy IWD and with that now being announced, I'm sure we'll be tied up with Infinity Engine games for quite awhile.
@Wiggles - Thank you!
I hope your life together will be filled with joy, happiness and lots of love!

This is an awesome story! My girl doesn't play any videogames, but we share a lot of hobbies as well and bonded over them. I think it makes for a happy relationship, and I wish you all the best.
