My sister and her boyfriend got engaged today so it seems appropriate to think back on my engagement. I remember Ben asking me if I would e free after class and I had actually made plans, but not till a little later, but they were kind of iffy anyway.

Ben had to grow out his facial hair a little for a part his was playing in a chorus the winter before last. I hate , hate, hated the scratchy not beard. Ben told me he grew out a bead once when he was younger for fun. (I think to impress/mimic his dad). He showed me a picture and it was really crazy looking! I don’t think I ever want Ben to have ( Read more... )
