“I gave her my heart, and she gave me a pen.” — Say Anything
“I love you for loving my daughter after knowing all that she is.” — My mom, to my fiancé. Lovely.
Happy birthday Dan! His mother’s work of art—impressive!
Although I sort of like the German blessing as well. Stern, straight forward, very German-like. “You must stay there forever.”
From the Fortune Telling Book for Brides, the Welsh wedding blessing is my favorite. And it’s fitting, since I’m marrying into the Jones name—the “Smith” of Wales.

Much needed.
It’s weird realizing all the things you miss after being gone as short as a week. Of course, there are the obvious ones—the fiance, cats, even my bed. What I didn’t realize I missed were the random, day-to-day things: my car; my stable, non-wobbly, non-shared desk; my widescreen monitor, keyboard and mouse; my office parking garage, which I was ever-so-easily able to get into this morning; my Sooner-gear (not to mention the lack of burnt orange); I could honestly keep going forever.
But now that I have all these things back, I miss my team. Come back remaining #fhsxsw-ers!
Home sweet furball.
Waitin’ on an airplane…
