Announcement!

Ok, so I have at least one more post to write.
Adam and I got engaged tonight!

I don't know if anyone is still reading, but I thought I'd better post this all the same. He proposed very simply -- we were making dinner together, and I was complaining that I wasn't sure I liked being a grown-up (I'd been paying bills). And he looked at me and said, "But there are SOME things that are nice about being a grown-up." And then he asked me to marry him. (He'd been planning to do this sometime during dinner, but I guess this moment was too good to pass up.)

So, we need to pick a date, to be influenced somewhat by the fact that my younger brother is getting married in late October. Two weddings in my immediate family in one year? Let's hope it will be more fun that chaos!

And since Adam is a photographer, we decided to take some engagement photos right away! I like this one because you can't quite tell if we're bantering about something or telling each other that we're crazy about each other. And you can kind of see my ring -- it's a yellow-gold band in an intricate metalwork design with some tiny diamonds set in it. I love it.
