“Engagement season: it’s like hunting season, with slightly more tulle.” – ElizabethWhich reminds me. You’ve all read, or at least seen Oscar Wilde’s An Ideal Husband*, yes? Of course you have. So apparently, we’re in ‘the season.’ I’m glad to see we’ve progressed so far in the last 100 years. Though, when we were planning our engagement, I did warn David that if I didn’t feel the proposal was up to snuff, I’d go wait by the ‘usual palm tree’ for him to try again. I’m pushy, even when I’m feeling traditional.
*I often describe my real-life self as a blend of Mabel Chiltern and Hermione Granger. Which is just about exactly right.
