My first entry

Since the proposal,

It's been difficult to get back to normal, and maybe that's a good thing. Normal for me has always been a delicate balance of fear and stress, with a powdered-sugar dusting of personal happiness. In essence, it's the kind of donut people leave behind in the box. So I guess being happy really isn't all that bad.

On a different note, Ross and I finally picked a tentative date, March 21st, and Utah as our location. I have found two places I need to tour, one of which I have a really good feeling about. Altogether, even if the whole wedding were to crumble around us, I think Ross and I would just laugh, exchange witty comments and movie quotes, and then walk barefoot to the nearest McDonald's. Sounds crazy, but hey, that's us.
