Alex and I are engaged. We were on vacation in Gatlinburg at the beginning of this month. The Chalet, Jewel of the Smokies, was gorgeous with an even more gorgeous view of the mountains especially from the hot tub. After dinner on Monday the seventh, we were sitting on a stone bench overlooking a small river with lights overhead and "movie music" in the background when he pulled out a small box and got down on one knee and asked me to spend the rest of my life with him. Yeah... that's my life now. Makes me feel a bit old. : ) He's moving-in in a couple of weeks. Yeah...

"Two people making memories... just too good to tell... and these arms are never empty... when we're lying here... when we fell... taking chances... making love... if walls could talk... they would say I love you more... they would say... hey, ever feel like this before... if walls had eyes... they would see the love inside... the would see me in your arms in ecstasy... walls can you keep a secret."
Smile. Every so often you come across a song that seems to come from your own heart.
current music: Celine, If Walls Could Talk

"Ask me just how much I love you."
Cryptic means it holds something for you... It doesn't just slam into your fucking face. It only holds it for you... a bit of the ocean or the sky or a star or something uncontainable.
Is reason really gone?
Or is it just me?
I can't stop...
current music: Nora Jones, Come away with me

Getting drunk with the folks is a very interesting... my mom just stole the rest of my merlot.. drunken bitch.. j/k anyways yeah it's strange to say the least, but it reminds me of hte day is France. We were at a restaurant in Monte Carlo. My parents, Laurie, and I had an aparritif, before dinner drink, and then shared two bottles of red wine. Laurie had to hold onto my shirt as we walked to the resterooms. I remember talking about everything and not remembering a damn thing I said the next morning.
Days of late... who can say? besides the old poets? One day, I'm sure I'll have it all figured out. Until then... please pour the wine!

"blurring and stirring the truth and the lies so i don't know what's real and what's not. i'm going under, drowning in you. i'm falling forever. i won't be broken again, i've got to breathe. i can't keep going under."
My puppy is following me around everywhere I go. It could be interpreted as flattery, but in reality it's because of a choclate stain on my shirt he is trying to get and I let him.
I listened to some Christmas music and made some traditional peanutbutter and choclate fudge candies. It didn't work. I still feel it. It's still with me.
current mood:  anxious
current music: Evanescence, going under

Like I have time to update...
Just finished writing to my two Madeira students. I still find it weird "grading" their papers. I told them at the start I was not a education major like the rest of my ENG 304 class, but still. One of them sent me a short story he is working on. It was so awful/funny.
Michael called mom yesterday. He is definitely coming home for Christmas. Mixed feelings... how many times have I signed him off? how many times is he an ass? but, that's not really being fair, i guess. hhhmm... maybe it'll be good. Atleast Alex will be there for me. : )

I drove to my parent's house today ready to play with my puppy. It's awful being so far away from him and my brother was talking about taking him to his appartment. I knew Laurie would not let this happen so I did not give it much thoguht. I opened the back door and called for my pup. Nothing stired except the gentle swirling of a few golden leaves. "Puppy?" I called louder. My heart sank. I started to see and understand my suroundings. His food and water dish were not around my feet on the porch. His chewy toys had vanished along with his blanket. I stood there... just looking... bearly breathing... challenging the air to materialize him as it has always done before... but no... he was gone.
"hello i'm the lie living for you so you can hide... don't cry"
current music: Evanescence, Hello
