Engaged!







Crazy monkeys. Who would have ever thought??? A lot of people are "shocked." That's somewhat entertaining. I obviously don't mind shocking people.

I always wondered if I would ever fall in love like this - in a way that made 12 hours of time together insufficient... in a way that makes me constantly aware of where he is and what he's doing... in a way that allows for the conflicts & disagreements to cause me to love him more when I wake up the next morning. I think this is of God. I know it is. I have no doubts, really.

It is surreal and euphoric. It is real and not easy. It is completely wonderful and exciting and very very good. :)

I'm getting married to Chris Youell.
