Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

AW!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

AWWWW

I told her, she was happy but of course wanted me to call my dad, and I apparently have the wrong number for him.

That could have been awkward. "Sir, I'd like permission to marry your daughter!" "...my daughter's five." "I'm sure she'll always be a child in your heart?" "I'm hanging up now and calling the police, you pervert!"

Punishingly Intricate

Congratulations, bon bon & bob bob!!!! I love the engagement story! It's made me a little weepy.

It was great fun and I hope to do it again soon when we have a bit more time to sit back and relax.

Yes, absolutely!!! I was worried about being dullsville because I was so sleepy but you both are so nice and chatty and interesting and we ended up with way more to talk about than time.

sarameg, thanks again for driving! And am really hoping Brentwood tells you all is well and that clutch will be with you for a good long while yet.

A lawyer and a philosopher, bound in marriage. That will be a talky marriage. Congratulations! Bon, don't let Bob convince you that the world doesn't exist. He might try it, you know.

The world of ice is still the world of ice. Will it please be warm enough tomorrow (as predicted) that all of the ice magically turns into slush? I will gladly wear my ugly boots if I can stop slip-sliding around. (Everybody on my street shoveled too soon, so some of the sidewalk is literally ice-skateable. Smooth and beautiful -- from a distance.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

In a sense, shovelling at all in this storm was a losing move for sidewalks. You're actually better off if the snow/ice has been tramped down some, up to the point where it starts melting slightly and freezing all shiny.

I expect there isn't an unsold bag of snowmelt within 50 miles.

The world of ice is still the world of ice.

It was a whole 4F this morning when I got downtown, and on the way, I apparently sat in the Arctic Blast seat on the bus. I am still shivering in my office.

What is even happening?

I'm trying to talk my mother out of walking up to the hospital to see her sister (who had colon cancer surgery a week ago yesterday, and now needs some physical rehab). Mum keeps talking about the roads being bad, and I keep telling her they're a heck of a lot more clear than the sidewalks, because the road she'll be taking is Main St. which has been salted, sanded, and plowed, and driven on for three days, now.

She's very stubborn, though. I may stoop to making her afraid she'll aggrevate her sore neck if she slips.
