Hiiii girls!
About a month ago I posted about some recent developments in the waiting department… I now know for sure that: a) the ring’s already been ordered; b) it’s definitely coming before New Year; and c) we’ve got some possible dates in mind (he’s Jewish so there’s a lot of “banned” dates), and we’d like to get married, most likely, in August 2011 (!!!!!!!!!)
Okay, so here’s the thing. BF is applying for two GREAT jobs, and is really advanced in the process on both. One would imply moving to Paris, the other to Washington DC. So, should any of both options “work out” (do you say it like this?), we’d need to plan like RIGHT NOW for our (!) wedding, probably because we’d be leaving Chile a little before August and would need to have everything ready by then. We’ve already talked this through and he’s already told me not to worry because it’s coming “so soon”.
SO, long story long… (sorry!). This wednesday is a national holiday. A friend is having a pool BBQ to celebrate her birthday. I told BF (who is usually a big enthusiast for social events and stuff) about it, and he said: “Um, no-oh, there’s no way we’re going… just tell her we’re off to the beach or something!” Ooookay… it’s no big deal for me, and I made a huge effort to keep my mouth shut and not ask him “Why” because, for the first time in like TWO YEARS (that’s why I’m No. 3 after all!), I feel like this might really be it! I’m not getting my hopes up (more than I already have, haha), but I have this strange/great/incredibly nervous feeling! It feels so surreal to write it down.
Just wanted to share! π

You guys are too sweet! Thanks for all the good vibes π
On another note, a quick update: BF is down with a throat/stomach bug, stayed home from work today… so I’m thinking (bummer) maybe I’ll have to wait some more… but I’ll keep you posted!
Again, thanks for the love π
