Well, first, Joe went to Joe town without me because I was on call last night and was supposed to go to KC to spay and neuter cats and dogs but never got an email confirming that there was enough room for me to go. So I stayed up late.
Last night, I went out to dinner with people from school hoping seriously that I wouldn't be called out for a foal who's diagonosis is overwatching. I didn't get called out. We ate Mexican and talked for hours. I told everyone about the engagement ring (this group hadn't heard) and everyone was very excited! They agreed that Pie Throw wasn't a good time for a proposal.
Today, I ran some errands including renting books on tape for my journey. I baked some cookies, watched a movie and then watched House. After House, I watched two more movies-Confessions of a Shopaholic and Sunshine Cleaning. Both were really good. Steve Zahn was in Sunshine Cleaning and he sort of reminds me of a high school boyfriend. Joe saw a picture of this guy and said that he saw how they looked alike too. Maybe a little. Maybe they both have big noses? I don't know. I guess I don't see it or don't want to anyway.
Anyway, I've been super happy. I think that Joe putting down some money on an engagement ring and actually picking one out (that will put some of the ones on other girls' hands to SHAME!!!) really helped with this. It didn't hurt that Thursday when Joe woke up that he was in a fantastic loving mood! He was super sweet. He said that he couldn't wait to start a new adventure together, one of OUR own.
I really think that Joe and I will be better off from now on. Everything will be an adventure together. Time to get engaged and moving and married and kids. And its going to be great. I really love Joe. Sigh. He's so great. I can't wait to start our adventure together either.
There's really so much for us to do. So much for me to do. I need to send out graduation announcements. I need to loose some weight. I need to really think about going to church any at all because if I want a Catholic wedding, that would be a first step. The second would be having Joe become Catholic. (Appartently, he will need to be for that church wedding.)
