life alterations (no sewing required, although a stitch or two would be nice)


J and i announced our engagement, with mixed results. it's interesting how so many people take a vow of silence on every aspect of your life until there is a decision made that has absolutely nothing to do with them, then there's a flood of advice and queries into your sanity and hopes that he's at least a good guy.

i am sane. he's a good guy. and we have a huge TV, so i guess there's no backing out now.

(the above photo, by the way, was taken by my cousin, yerffej. i think it's hilarious)

i suppose now comes the chaos. so far, though, everything's been painless. it helps that J is pretty easy-going.

should i commemorate the occasion with a funny story about us? we have our moments, despite what the above photo might suggest. there was the time i came home, hung up my coat, went into the bedroom and had a hand grab at me from under the bed, and i screamed... well, i suppose that was more blood-curdling than funny. wait- there was the time i came home to find the dishes done and rainbow carnations on the coffee table- hm. that's a bit more AWESOME than funny. there was the time nike got her tail smashed in a crashing window and J made sure he was okay for me- that was a more kind than anything. well, there are oodles of funny moments, but i guess i've got all the other kinds on my mind right now.
