Status update

Since not everyone received my last email and not everyone is on Facebook, here are the news:
Yes, Nick proposed to me behind the Taj Mahal, and I now have a ring with a stone found in the Taj Mahal's dome which can only be found in Agra, the "black star of India". Pretty romantic. So yes, I'm excited, though maybe not as much as some of you seem to be, since we'd known it would eventually come to this. And for a wedding? Well, let's not get carried away, this is already a big step in our relationship, a way to strengthen our love and make it even more special, after almost seven years together.
