Oh Man
Working full time now, 5:45 every day, fun ceramics class, too tired for Aikido, still no social life to speak of, blah blah blah.
Now on to the interesting bit. I am now officially engaged. That's right, he 'popped the question'. The fact that there was nothing much in the way of suspense as to the answer (we've been talking about this since before the move, plus it came right after he fixed me this awesome steak dinner for our anniversary, and hey, what can I say. I'm a sucker for good food.)and that both of us promptly cracked up laughing did nothing to impair the sweetness of the moment. He hid the ring he got me for christmas some eight years ago in the bottom of a dessert bowl full of spiced peaches and fresh blackberries. Then he had to eat one of the peaches himself while I was in the bathroom so I'd find it cuz I was too full to eat much. Given the nature of our relationship, I would call it pretty much perfect. It's funny, it hardly comes as a surprise, and it doesn't materially change much, but it's still exciting.
Now if only our current work schedules didn't prevent us from seeing each other more then a coupe hours three nights a week...
