it's been a while...again...

wow! so much has changed since my last post! when we last met i was lamenting about being alone forever and now here we are, 6 weeks away from my wedding or commitment ceremony or whatever you want to call it! :) i guess it's true about what they say...you find what you need when you least expect it. for us, it was a mutual friend saying "i know someone you should meet, i think you'd really like her" and that was it. the emails started, a road trip happened, long distance dating, a speedy engagement, one relocation and here we are. i'm living out of california for the first time in my life and i love it. oregon has fed my soul and reminded me there is more to life than 15 hour work days and the blinking urgency of the red light on my blackberry. i'm out in nature more, reconnecting with family, making new friends, and figuring out who i am again. and loving her...always loving her...
