Excellent dream, Shir.
I've been reading along here, hopelessly behind in Natter. Haven't been posting much, so I kind of hate to jump in and be all about me, but I have GOT to share a sentence I just stammered out, because really not a sentence I ever imagined saying, and I can't do it on FB or Twitter... yet:
"... so, like, will you send me a picture so I can see what my NEW BROTHER-IN-LAW looks like?"
WHAT.
My oldest sister called on my in to work this morning to say that she got married yesterday. To a dude she's been dating for a year. That none of us knew about. Well, surely someone did. Probably my aunt. Maybe her own two sons?
I mean, my family is not really a "up in each other's business," kind of family, but I believe she just took the Permanent Prize of Victory in Playing it Close to the Vest.
Holy shit.
I think I finally remembered to say, "Congratulations!" about a minute into the (short!) conversation.
Wow.
Happy hour yesterday was fun, but patently unsexy.(I wasn't really *expecting* it to be sexy, but I could use a cheap thrill...you know what I mean?)
But the food was good.
Jen - Woah and even wow, too.
Oh, totally.
Not that I've ever known who my brother dated. But he never got serious with anyone, either.
Jen, that is completely bananas. Wow.
Rigth? I'm totally spinning hilarious conspiracy theories in my head, but the truth is, there are SURELY some juicy details... and I will undoubtedly never know them.
I mean, she's a single lady pastor (he is NOT in her church), so if she wants to "date," there are challenges, as you might imagine. I suspect that, "I am tired of sneaking about; let's just do this thing," was a conversation. BUT STILL!
I just hope I like the dude. Because I'm selfish that way. Oh, and that they're happy together, blah, blah, blah.
In light of the dating convo from earlier -- how's that for a dating style?

Absolutely not selfish, IMO.

Quite revolutionary. One can only hope for a Cosmo issue about it.

Hah! I've gotten that phone call. But at least we knew my bro's GF.
Hah! I've gotten that phone call.
Now I'm all agog to learn why Jen's sister was phoning Brenda.
