Signs of the Times
- I find out that my brother is now engaged via his Weblog.
- I find out that my friend Jeremy is engaged via IM.
Both of these things are wonderful.
They are also amusing.
[Actually, I found out about Doug's engagement from my grandmother when I talked to her this morning. Secondhand. I feel like elbowing Doug in the ribs a couple times. :lol:]

Just wait until your new fiance does a mass e-mailing to all her friends with a picture of the ring… (been there, done that, she stole the tee-shirt out of my dresser)
March 24th, 2004 at 16:59Don’t forget that Sean’s proposal to me is online for all to see.
March 25th, 2004 at 11:14That is indeed true, Katharine. However, at least I knew what Sean was doing beforehand. I guess I knew that Doug was going to propose to Cindy, but I had no advance warning.
Or phone call.
to my brother! 
March 25th, 2004 at 11:18BTW, did you ever get my voicemail message? Called your cell phone a couple of hours after she said “yes”.
You’ll love having Cindy as a sister-in-law. Seems like you two got along quite well.
March 25th, 2004 at 15:13Yes, I did get it [when I finally checked my messages]. My phone didn’t show any new calls, though, so I didn’t check it.
