The Cassandra Complex

Yes, Morton, it was a (not so sly) allusion...

M. proposed to me last Monday morning. Till now I have been too giddy to post anything more substantial here. :P

We've been together for two years - it was our anniversary; we were lying together in bed procrastinating about getting in the shower to get ready for work when he asked. My answer was "'Course I will, stupid." What can I say, I was half asleep and totally floored by it all.

I am so stoked, even though organising an event as huge as a wedding is a teeny bit intimidating. We're meeting a celebrant (a friend of a friend) tomorrow, and going venue hunting next week.

Yay! :D
