Unconfirmed, anonymous and seemingly tipsy sources are reporting the renowned author and Gather celeb femme-fatale Tracy Fabre is engaged to someone known only as Mark Jepsen.

We have been unable to contact Ms. Fabre to get confirmation from her.  Her purported suitor refused comment, stating only that he couldn't open the door until he found his pants.

More on this as it develops.

As one of her friends I am upset that I wasn't told.
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 4:56pm EST
Me too!
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 5:02pm EST
I hope Tracy doesn't take it a lack of commitment on my part, but this whole engagement thing is cutting into my already announced nappy time! Hopefully she'll understand.
Sandy (Site Psychic™) Knauer Feb 18, 2009, 5:03pm EST
Hey, I was there when it happened. I think. Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it, at least for the next five minutes.
Sandy (Site Psychic™) Knauer Feb 18, 2009, 5:04pm EST
(I heard she is only engaged to Mark Jepsen because Tom Brady is engaged to Sandy Knauer.)
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:07pm EST
OH! OH!

The horror! No, MARK! How COULD you say such a ... such a ...

*feels faint*
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:08pm EST
I can't cope. For the next four minutes, until Sandy stops sticking to her story, I shall have to deal with the vapors this traumatic news has caused.
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 5:10pm EST
Hrmph, Tracy you could of told me!!! Congrats anyway!!!
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 5:13pm EST
I've been dealing with vapors for most of my... scratch that... ALL of my adult life! They seem to follow me everywhere I go!
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 5:14pm EST
Get some Vicks for those vapors!!!
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:15pm EST
Victorians never knew what to do about vapors.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:17pm EST
Ack! Damn details, always come back to bite me.

HRMPH.
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 5:18pm EST
Well, let's just say "propositions" were made! *wink wink*
JOHN BECK Feb 18, 2009, 5:21pm EST
Oh, I'm glad she knows! When I first read the post I was afraid is was an unusual Gather proposal. That must mean she accepts. Lets see--I was taught you say "Congratulations" to Mark and "Best Wishes" to Tracy. Or is it the other way? Of course that was back when etiquette was key and gender equality applied to angle worms. So Congratulations and Best Wishes to you both!
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 5:22pm EST
Has anyone told Peter yet? I can't wait till he hears!!!
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:22pm EST
Those were prepositions! "What are you bringing that book that I don't want to be read to from out of up for?" (David Carkeet, The Full Catastrophe)
JOHN BECK Feb 18, 2009, 5:25pm EST
I'm curious to know if Sarah knows.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:25pm EST
Angle worms. Peter. Whoa. Head rush.
Sarah A. Hopes for More TOS Enforcement Feb 18, 2009, 5:31pm EST
Sarah is only somewhat miffed, as she, Peter Joseph and Tracy did have an 'understanding', but the rings must have been lost in the mail.
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 5:32pm EST
And elicitations to you John!

Dearest Tracy, we really need to agree on our parts of speech! I don't know if I can be in a relationship where I'm only the object of preposition! I'd much rather be the subject of a proposition, if you take my meaning.

Oh fickleness, thy name is woman!

And we all know that *fickleness* is just *ickleness* with a big effin *f* on the front of it!

Oh forgive me dearest Tracy... my emotions are in a rampant state of flux. I know not what I say when the tumult overwhelms me.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:35pm EST
The secret decoder rings, yessss.....
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 5:36pm EST
Sarah? Oh... Sarah! *clears throat*... I didn't realize you were here. Tracy and I... we... well, um... she asked if I wanted to see her etchings... that's all it was... honestly. [*Scrambles frantically for his pants, ever so thankful that Sarah knows full well he seldom wears pants anyway.]

Yes, Sarah... where were we then. Ah yes. How nice to see you!
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:36pm EST
Effing Magic? From the Keebler Effs? I still feel faint.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 5:38pm EST
Oh, Lordy... Mark, no need to hide it. The truth, that is, not your non-pantedness. Sarah and I are practically engaged already.
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 5:44pm EST
This is getting more interesting by the comment!!!
Sandy (Site Psychic™) Knauer Feb 18, 2009, 5:47pm EST
utoh. I see trouble ahead. Lainie has an etching.
Aniko   Feb 18, 2009, 5:52pm EST
I wonder if David Rochester knows about this...
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 5:53pm EST
Mark's mind is spinning... sensing a potential threesome in the offing! *Woot*
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 5:55pm EST
Heck all of Gather, with the exception of Peter, knows it by now!!!
Mark Jepsen Feb 18, 2009, 5:56pm EST
Mark is now realizing that the surest way to ruin a potential threesome is to mention the possibility too soon. Dang! I always mess that up!
Sarah A. Hopes for More TOS Enforcement Feb 18, 2009, 5:59pm EST
"Etching" is just "Fetching" without an 'F' in front. That's all I've got to say.
Vivian P. Feb 18, 2009, 6:01pm EST
I just found out I am so hurt I didn't even know they knew each other.
Did Mark say offspring or offing ?
Vivian P. Feb 18, 2009, 6:02pm EST
Nobody ever tells me anything
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:03pm EST
Join the crowd, Vivian. I just found out when Mark posted this.
mary bryant Feb 18, 2009, 6:04pm EST
lol
Vivian P. Feb 18, 2009, 6:04pm EST
SO is she engaged to Sarah or Mark ?

I need to know because the wedding gift will be very different ya know.
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:05pm EST
I believe BOTH Vivian. Get two gifts.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:06pm EST
Hey! David Rochester has renewed his fling with Jackie L.

Far as I can see, I was shut right out of my stalking contract.
Vivian P. Feb 18, 2009, 6:07pm EST
so who do they think they are, right Tracy ?
Vivian P. Feb 18, 2009, 6:09pm EST
What is it with men and threesomes ?
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:11pm EST
In case one has a headache Vivian!!!
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:12pm EST
Higher math confuses me this late in the day.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:15pm EST
I may be lying down as I type.
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:15pm EST
1 guy + 2 women = 1 happy guy and 2 dissatisfied women!!!

How's that for higher math?
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:16pm EST
Still got the vapors huh? You need to get up and do the Hokey Pokey. All together now, put you left foot in, put your left foot out .........................
Vivian P. Feb 18, 2009, 6:17pm EST
No No 2 guys and 1 woman I mean that is only common sense .
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:17pm EST
Looks right to me. My head hurts. Juggling these posts AND office visitors is just too hard. I feel WHINY!
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:17pm EST
Vivian -- that sounds reasonable.
Vivian P. Feb 18, 2009, 6:17pm EST
Tracy dances !
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:18pm EST
Oh please, not the whining!!! Spare us that. Think of your future husband?
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:19pm EST
How bout Sam Elliott and Antonio Banderas? Yep that equals FUN!!!
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:19pm EST
Well. More accurate to say I sway. But you can call it dancing if you like.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:22pm EST
I was looking forward to whining. :-(
ann c. Feb 18, 2009, 6:26pm EST
Whine over Anderson Cooper then. Cross threading, don't ya love it!!!
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:27pm EST
I'm getting dizzier by the minute!
Sandy (Site Psychic™) Knauer Feb 18, 2009, 6:30pm EST
I don't think I can get any dizzier.
Tracy Fabre Feb 18, 2009, 6:32pm EST
You started it! Okay, I could take SOME responsibility here but what would be the fun of that?
Sarah A. Hopes for More TOS Enforcement Feb 18, 2009, 6:45pm EST
I put my left foot in and I fell down. I'm going to go take another nap.
Nellie (The Bad Santa of Gather) Feb 18, 2009, 8:58pm EST
Late now since you aren't engaged anymore, so I won't congratulate you or scream wahoo and jump up and down, but tell me this....is it true that you know who got involved with a you know what?
Sandy (Site Psychic™) Knauer Feb 19, 2009, 1:54am EST
I like your ads - Laughter-good for you, and 2009 anti-aging awards. They must have known I was coming.
Mark Jepsen Feb 19, 2009, 2:20am EST
Oh man... if it's Thursday I must not be engaged? But I feel like I have a bad case of jet lag from this whole experience!
JOHN BECK Feb 19, 2009, 8:36am EST
Krambambuli is good for jet lag, too. So is a sauna.
Peter Joseph Swanson Feb 19, 2009, 5:51pm EST
here I am
ann c. Feb 19, 2009, 6:30pm EST
That's all you have to say Peter? Here I am?
