Engaged!!
May 25, 2009
To say that this weekend has gone smoothly would be a lie. I always find myself tangled in romantic drama, and this weekend was no exception. All I can say is, at least it's over, the drama has subsided and I can mope in peace.
Though I sort of feel the need to wallow in my own self pity, I can't right now. Rachel and I were about to make dinner when I heard a familiar musical jingle coming out of my room- I had a new voicemail. The message was from my stepfather, who said he had very exciting news to share.
I called him back immediately, and was told that I'm going to be a sister-in-law! (For the record, I already am a sister-in-law. My sister is married to a very nice South African guy.) For some reason, I confused sister-in-law and aunt and thought that my older sister must be pregnant. Nope. My big brother is engaged! Though I'm slightly disappointed that I'm not becoming "Auntie Alana" right now, I'm ecstatic about the engagement.

Aww Congratulations :)
Why am I ALWAYS the last to know about these important things in our family? I BETTER BE THE FIRST TO KNOW WHEN YOU'RE ENGAGED. I'm about to check my email to make sure that Steve didn't forget about me while I'm in Spain...to tell me about this. hmpff!
Of course, you were not forgotten-the email was sent. Your sister just doesn't let any moss grow under her.
