counting down

when i attended peter and amanda's wedding this past summer, something occured to me: the day amanda had been counting down to - not just since they got engaged but probably since she was a little girl - had come. there's so much anticipation for that, and it had arrived for her. how cool is that?

it's finally happened: a friend of mine from high school is engaged. another friend asked me why i always sound so painfully single on my blog, and that's not my intention. it's just that i'm reminded quite often that people around me are finding partners to share life with, and it makes me warm and fuzzy and hopeful and, yes, even sometimes anxious, inside. but it's all good. no, really.

we're growing up, i guess. don't know whether to laugh or cry. why choose?

You do not sound so painfully single, maybe sometimes just painful and other times just single.
