ouch! I don't think there is any need to remind yourself of that...because it makes us readers think about how long we have been single too...which isn't necessarily a good thing.

well, it's not neccessarily a complaint. ;)

Oooh go on with your self-reliant, independant woman self!

Will you marry me?

The day after christmas? Wasn't that a bit harsh? I suppose it makes the date memorable... but it's not the kind of date you want to remember anyway.

I think you owe us a little story... remember, there's no such thing as TMI for those who care!

I am coming to think now that all I have loved were shadows
Strayed up from a dead world, through a gap in a raped tomb.
John Heath-Stubbs (English poet)
