You are certainly right about that, dfb. A year ago I could not have envisioned the place I'm at today, and your own R with your "SO" was heading in a completely different direction as well. Let me say that I'm very happy for you too, in the way your sitch has been coming along. What a 180 he did, hmmm?
Hope your wedding goes smoothly and becomes even better than you can imagine. Do you have a honeymoon planned yet?
