You know I never really like pictures of me. But I look at this and I can see the girl he fell in love with. That's me. Wow. I look so happy. And dear god, that's my future husband in that photo. Amazing.

He's the most beautiful person, sitting in the passenger seat of my car, with an arm slung across the seat behind my shoulders, staring out the window. Or when he throws his head back and laughs, leaning back in his chair and he'll rake a hand through his hair. He always looks damn nice in that shirt.

Makes me absurdly pleased that this was taken by Melynda in Metro tonight after our insane six person Shanghai Rummy game.

We came home tonight, and talked about dreams, about bank accounts, about his family, about moving to New York. It keeps overwhelming us, this certainty that this is person we're going to spend the rest of our life with, this is real, this is love. We pause and stare, shocked and gleeful.

I practiced signing my name tonight, just to see. It looks good. Alan teases me that the only reason I'm marrying him is so I'll have a real Czech last name.

You look wonderful... and tan!

As to him, you were quite right. But I am going to attack him with tweazers before your wedding photo. (I've been watching too much Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, oh yes).

I definitely need your help with this whole planning thing, as I haven't a clue where to start. Though Alan and I have decided we want to have the wedding round the end of the year or so.

Hee. Someone should mount an ad campaign- "Get engaged, it does wonders for you!" You know it would be a great thing for the Republicans. ;)

Yup, I am changing my name officially. I fear all the paperwork, and getting a new passport and stuff. But I want to, and it means an awful lot to him.

All the joys of summer in Texas. I change color faster than a popsicle melts.

Poor Alan. The first time Terra met him she made some remarkably rude comment about the eyebrows and I punched her under the table.

Did you use the 'cute' setting on the magic eight ball? It's a good thing we're cute, because man we're geeks.

And thank heavens someone is snifly besides me now! Thank you.

Thursday looks in the clear. We'll see if I can drag him out of bed at a semi reasonable hour. ;)
