Woo-hoo!

Congratulations are due to my BFF fava_bean, who yesterday got engaged to her super-awesome boyfriend G. How awesome is G? He's so awesome that he flew me out to New Jersey to surprise her at the post-proposal party. (It's all about me, obviously.) No, really, I could not be more happy for the two of them. They're one of those couples who just make sense and I'm so glad they're going to get married. Yay!

It's also really fun to be out here with them. So far I've met a bunch of their friends and they're all really nice and funny. I've eaten some great food (Italian and S'Mac's great fig, mushroom, and rosemary mac & cheese). I got to wander around Central Park for a bit and enjoy the great weather.

Tomorrow morning I head home and get to see the Scientist and my little girl again. It makes going home so much easier knowing I'll get to squeeze my little goober in less than 12 hours. Yay!

Hooray for couples/families that make sense! And I'm so jealous you got to try S'Mac! We couldn't fit it into our NYC trip last year, but maybe this year... :D

If it makes you feel better about missing SMac, after we had ordered our food, the girl working behind the counter suddenly screamed, hurled into a table of customers, and ran out onto the sidewalk. It seems a giant cockroach had been crawling on her leg. I saw the thing with my own eyes; it was at least 4" long. I chalked it up to an NYC experience, and I'm sure that's not the norm seeing as how the girl was acting. But if you're serious about going there to eat I feel obligated to tell you about the roach.
