i'm engaged

i typically don't blog about really personal things. but this past summer i met someone who changed my life, and i felt a need to share. from the moment we met there was instant chemistry, and we've been inseparable ever since.

i've kept my feelings for her under wraps for a very simple reason: she is quite a bit younger than i. i've learned that people can be terribly judgmental on this issue. some do not look fondly on an older lad like myself hanging out with someone over a decade younger. i didn't want to be affected by these naysayers and therefore felt it wise to keep a low profile. it's a good thing. it turns out there is great truth to the saying "love knows no age". it would have been a shame to pass her by given how happy i am.

she is unlike anyone i've ever been with. always up for a good time. always game to go wherever, do whatever. full of energy and so low maintenance. not to mention she is beautiful. i consider myself a very lucky guy. and so it is with great excitement that i introduce you to the love of my life.

oh. by the way, by "i'm engaged" i mean i've been busy or occupied, which is why i haven't blogged much as of late. i'll do better going forward.
