still on cloud 9

i've been engaged for 6 days now. it hasn't lost its luster at all. even though the week was busy, it was awesome. i have felt SO loved by people who are excited about my news-- facebook exploded once we posted our engaged relationship status. my students freaked out. j's students added me as a "friend" on facebook. i still gaze at my ring multiple times each day.

oh, speaking of my ring...
i feel like no picture really does it justice, but my ring is so rad. i love the shape, the thin-ness, the way it feels on my finger. last night when we prayed at dinner, meliss held my hand for the first time since i had a diamond on it. awesome~

yesterday joel said something about "our house"... i'm like "OH yeah, i guess it is officially our house now!!" he said, "yeah, i bought you that house, babe". oi vey, i'm so blessed*
