We're Engaged!

Kat and I are finally engaged. I proposed during our Mexican vacation (details to follow soon) and she accepted. I gave her a placeholder ring until we go shopping for permanent rings after the holiday season is over.

Kat is an amazing, funny, sexy, beautiful, smart, and wonderful woman. I love her immensely. She is so very good to me and lets me know all the time how much she loves me in return. The last two and a half years with Kat have been very healthy and deeply satisfying. I couldn't imagine a better partner to spend the rest of my life with.

We are both looking forward to getting married someday, but not any time soon. I'm thinking it will be some time after she's finished grad school and found a job she likes and we're otherwise not distracted with other grand plans. For now we're both very happy to be where we are in our relationship, and everyone we've told seems very happy for us as well. My heartfelt thanks goes out to everyone who loves us and has given us support.
