Saturday, after our party at T.R.A.C.S, Tim and I went to The Elopement Party
of Bock and Tomias.
The word elopement, was a new word for me.
The word elopement, was a new word for me.
To elope,
most literally, merely means to run away and to not come back to the point of
origination. More specifically, elopement is often used to refer to a marriage
conducted in sudden and secretive fashion, usually involving hurried flight
away from one's place of residence together with one's beloved with the
intention of getting married.
Today the
term "elopement" is colloquially used for any marriage performed in
haste or in private or without a public period of engagement. Some couples
elope because they dislike or cannot afford an expensive wedding ceremony, or
wish to avoid objections from parents, or religious obligations.
Bock wrote
on his Blog:
Tomais and
I eloped and were married on January 1st, 2014 . This party is not a wedding, we
just want you to come, relax, have fun and share and celebrate our happiness at
being together.

When Tim and I arrived there were 52 people
on the sim. The party was at that time already going on for more than 2 hours
and I have no idea how much people already left than, but I think it is very
impressive. With so much people around, it is not a good moment to have a normal
conversation with the host (Bock in this case. I hardly know Tomais) who is busy
to welcome and say good bye to guests. I think I even missed Bock's hug invite.
(I'm sorry Bock).
I saw some old friends and exit friends. It
was nice to get an IM from a friend from a friend who said that he liked to
meet me for the first time because our mutual friends said some nice words
about me and River Island . Further I had a nice IM with somebody about Charlie Chaplin and
the movie "The Great Dictator" (that was my outfit when I arrived at
the party). Overall it was a nice party. I wish Bock and Tomais a long life
together.
