So, you're saying you want to hear the full story of me and Regina?

Where's the fun in that?

Okay. Our stories starts a long time ago,??back in the days of??my great-great-grandfather in our ancestral home of Scotland. He'd been having his neighbors over for dinner, and his neighbor's grandfather died of food-poisoning because my great-granduncle had forgotten to refrigerate the sheep's stomach before making it into haggis. The neighboring family, the McDougals, declared my family, then called the Spences, their enemies. My great-grandmother came to Canada, married,??and eventually moved down to New York. Around the time my biological grandfather died (my father was just a baby), my grandmother remarried. Finally, when my dad met my mom, they had a talk with my paternal grandparents and the McDougals, and it was decided that their first born (Regina) would be wed to my parents' first born (me). We were friends as children, and we come to genuinely fall in love as we got older. Since we've reach the age the McDougals deemed acceptable, Regina and I are to be married. It has to take place on a boat in International waters because I am an American citizen and a "proper" marriage would still be out of the question. This way, she and I shall wed, the almost-century long feud will end, and we'll have many children.

I know. It sounds like a fairytale, but it's real.

You should write a book about it.

Actually, HUMOR is the spice of life, but since randomness leads to humor, it's all good.

Actually, since I was born in 1991, it's a 20th century arranged marriage.
