Lawfully Wedded
Hi Barbarella, You may not remember me, but my name's Matt. I was your waiter at the Prado you mentioned in this article. Just wanted to first of all say thanks for the nice remarks in your article, I totally remember you guys and enjoyed waiting on you. As for why I'm writing you more than 2 years later, well I recently got married and we did the same thing!! When me and my then-fiancee were going to the courthouse and going through the whole process I kept thinking about this article which you wrote a couple years back. It was actually part of my inspiration for defying conventionality. :))) We also did not tell anyone at firt either. We didn't want any big weddings or hype or anything like that. Just the simple gesture to each other. Anyway, I hope things are still going well with you and your husband. And glad to see you are still writing stories for the SD reader, they are quite entertaining. Take care! Matt— June 5, 2010 5:05 p.m.
