WELLTON, AZ—Henry Leighty, a 32-year-old Arizona native and insurance claims adjuster, reportedly had such a huge crush on his girlfriend, Stacy Tompkins, 29, that he just had to marry her in a small ceremony Sunday which he totally dreams about every night when he goes to bed.

Insiders close to Leighty suggested that he probably wanted to marry her for, like, ever.

“Stacy and I are so happy,” said Leighty, who mailed dozens of embossed invitations with little birds and flowers on them months before the wedding to ensure no one would miss his extra-special afternoon of girl-kissing. “For our honeymoon, we’re going to spend some time [Frenching] in Saint Lucia.”

Leighty’s parents, David and Kathy, attended the ceremony, as did Leighty’s two sisters, brother, and super-special someone, Tompkins, whom he adores so much he had to get a priest to make them husband and wife forever and ever—just like he always wanted. To honor the event, Leighty wore a tailored Armani tuxedo, hired a local string quartet to perform the traditional wedding march, and actually held his girlfriend’s hand at least twice. Gross.

According to Leighty, the couple began planning the wedding shortly after their engagement last June, when the lover boy finally admitted what everyone already knew: that he couldn’t wait to spend the rest of his life with a girl.

“We had been dating for five years, and it seemed like the perfect time,” Leighty said, while everybody puked. “She’s a really great person.”

After professing a bunch of sappy vows he probably actually meant, Leighty open-mouth kissed his bride in front of friends and family and nobody even tried to stop him.

Immediately following the ceremony, the wedding party moved to the nearby Wellton Country Club, where the new Mr. and Mrs. Leighty—blech—joined their guests in a celebration of the couple’s disgusting feelings for each other with food, dancing, and making-out. Witnesses say Leighty also hired a wedding photographer to take pictures that would last for all eternity so the groom could go home later and practice kissing with them.

Best man Derek Heidel said he “couldn’t be happier” for the couple, whom he first met during his undergraduate studies at the University of Arizona and apparently likes so much he should probably just marry both of them in some stupid three-way lovefest.

“The ceremony was beautiful,” said Heidel, who is either blind or retarded if he didn’t notice all the sick touching going on. “I felt so honored to be standing next to Henry at this important time in his life. I know they’ll have a long and happy marriage together.”

Leighty, who witnesses claim they saw writing “Mr. and Mrs. Leighty” all over their joint checking account forms, said he “can’t imagine” his life without Stacy. “She’s got such a wonderful sense of humor,” he said over and over as if anyone cared.

Leighty went on to say something like, “Ooh, this is my wife whom I love. I love her so much I want to marry her again because I love her so much, I do, I really do.” He totally said that, reporters at the event swear to God.

Though the couple had initially planned to get married sometime this summer, the date was moved up to November because of Tompkin’s mother’s failing health. Despite some initial concerns that the couple would not be able to reschedule the event due to their hectic schedule of sitting in a tree and k-i-s-s-i-n-g, the two were able to successfully transition through the next phases of their courtship—love and marriage.

In analyzing relationships similar to the newly wedded couple’s, experts predict that, within four to six months, Leighty and Tompkins are most likely going to do it, probably resulting in a baby in a baby carriage.

smythe les vestes continues to amaze me.

wool & leather jacket.

yet another reason i can’t wait until fall.

in portland’s pearl district lies shelter for starving artists, musicians and glob trotting nomads; or maybe those who just appreciate the architecture, art, and charm of the ACE HOTEL.

the 79 room hotel reflects portland’s cultural and artistic spirit. custom wool blankets with the cities iconic elk are tucked neatly into every bed. the private or shared bathrooms feature deep claw foot tubs & vintage furnishings.

the lobby houses a photo booth, and serves portland’s very own STUMPTOWN COFFEE.

with convenient laundry service, a block to powells books and a fleet of JORG & OLIF city bike to rent, this is one little gem you wont want to miss.

i’m not much a of plain ol’ t-shirt wearing female. but i found this awesome pair over at indieshopper.

i like these because the sleeves are not so short that they expose your wings or funnel arms.

oh & they’re only 30 bucks.

the new mike & chris fall collection is out. and i must say, i’m a little disappointed. last years fall collection was off the hook. the jackets were incredible, scarves were thick and unique. the edgy-ness is missing.

lets hope they get it back in time for next season.

Did you know you can fly first class from san francisco to las vegas for under $300?

it’s true. virgin america makes it possible, and i’m not talking like from school bus to charter bus style.

first of all, you’re already being hooked up in the main cabin. flights cheap as dirt, your own tv & entertainment control, adjustable headrests, & mini bar access. now first class; in addition to what the main cabin-ers get, you’re seat is more like an SUV seat with a built-in massage function, adjustable foot recline, and personal, adjustable reading light.

it’s also the first airline with mood lighting. frequent flyer here i come.
