For the 0.01% of my family/friends who prefer to get their news on my life via this blog, instead of Facebook... I've got some news! Plus, an exclusive photo (you know, like they do to boost website readership for printed publications? Just indulge me.)
Actually, I really think the photo speaks for itself:
Left hand. Ring. Snuggly couple. (And yes, that's my brother & mom up in the corner there :)) I know what you're thinking: all the signs and symptoms of engagement, right?
Well done, you! 'Cause that's absolutely correct. (can't. stop. smiling.)
Wondering why we look a little bleary eyed? That's probably because we'd stayed up most of the night on the 20th of June to see the sun rise from the cliffs overlooking the North Sea, beside the cathedral ruins in St Andrews. It appears that my -ahem- fiance is either hopeless romantic 'cause that's when he popped the question. Perfection.
So, life right now has a lotta love. And a lotta dreaming. And a lotta good, important conversations my favorite person, and all the people who are most important to us. And, okay, not enough dissertation-writing (What can I say? Every time I go to type something, there's this sparkly thing on my hand reminding me about the best future ever!) But mostly the love.
Coming soon: day-dream updates, future-talk (aka, Where in The World is Carmen Sandiego are Christy and Greg Going?), an adventure back home for my cousin's wedding, lots of spontaneous exclamations of joy, and, as always, a little babble about dead poets. Y'know. For good measure.
