Immeasurable
In August of 2003 I had the perfect date with a wonderful man. We drove to Chicago for the Tall Shps show. We had cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory on Michigan Ave., followed by drinks at the top of the Hancock building and finally Indian buffet on Devon St. We had so much fun together.
A few weeks later we set out for Burning Man, still unsure of what was happening between us, but not wanting it to end.

As our relationship became established, everyday I spent with him I would think to myself, “I’m as happy and as in love as I could possibly be.” Only to be topped the next day with more happiness and more love. Eventually I had to stop trying to quantify it.
Last week we went back to the John Hancock Center and the man I love asked me to marry him. I said yes.





Congratulations!
As a recently married person myself, I will now chant, “ONE OF US! ONE OF US!”
