That was sort of unexpected to mo. My head sort of cocked to the side for a moment as it sunk in.

What?

You mean 186,000 miles per second?

I was half-expecting the marriage proposal to come up any day now, if it was ever happening. What made me do a double-take, though, was the way it was sone so casually. If it weren't for the rambling, I would have thought that was a joke.

Though I'm not completely surprised. It does seem like the kind of thing they'd do.

I kinda saw this coming. Bought time is all I got to say. A kitchen sink proposals...very interesting.

My reaction: SQUEEE! Rachel (my sister)! Get over here!

Though it was predictable, I was still a little surprised by the proposal.

Well, this is interesting. I don't think I'd call what I felt surprise, due to their relationship having already become a romantic one. I was affected more by the importance of the development than its suddenness.

Also, the second panel pretty much sums up my philosophy on romance. You can't spell "girlfriend" without "friend".

This is so much like what happened to me - my then-girlfriend and I were sitting together at my apartment, each reading our separate books. Out of the blue, she said, "You know, if we can put up with dating each other for a year, we should move in together". I thought about that for a moment, and replied, "If we're going to move in together, we might as well handfast." She said "Okay", and that was that.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term, "handfasting" is the NeoPagan term for marriage.

I hope it works out better for them than it did for me. My wife died a scant two months before our fifth anniversary.

It would be tragically hilarious if she was joking.

Only in a vacuum.

HA! I called it correctly!

(But I was just taking a drink of soda, when I read the strip, and almost spat the soda out)

That'd be sorrowfully awesome.

Can't say I didn't see this coming, but the execution was unexpected - and very fitting for this strip.
