form a single line please

I went to a wedding and J and I were asked the same question but in different ways: (1) When are you getting married? (2) So are you next? (3) Did he ask yet?

Now multiply that about 20 times.

My answer always began with a nervous awkward giggle followed by a somewhat hurried "oh no plans yet". J's answer vary slightly to an awkward no reply just a smile or his favourite joke, "she didn't propose to me yet".

Sigh.

We had another one of those heart-to-heart talks after watching the movie, The Time Traveller's Wife. No, it wasn't because of the movie but more so because of my mood change.

I can honestly say that it is difficult to talk about something sensitive while in public. I was on the verge of tears when a lady decided to sit on the bench 5 inches away from him. Erm. It felt so weird that I wanted to laugh out loud but only managed to let out a sarcastic giggle (if such a thing exist).

Personal space aka bubble-around-me felt violated so I got up and pointed at another bench while looking behind in case she follows.

Erm.

Two things on THE LIST*: take dance lessons and rent a sailboat for an hour.
