A vibrator. He gave me a vibrator. One that Pete helped him pick out. Just...my god, I'm speechless.

I've never owned a sex toy of any sort in my life and now not only do I have one, but Pete knows I do, and I can't even look at the thing without thinking of the two of them discussing it. If there's anything less sexy on earth than the mental ( Read more... )

I enjoy the holidays every year, but I have to admit that it's also a relief when they're over. It was especially nerve-wracking this year with my family meeting Victor's mother for the first time. At the time, I was slightly put out that my parents only stayed for hors d'oeuvres, because they had dinner reservations at the Dorchester, but it was a ( Read more... )

As much as I love Victor with all of my heart, it's rather alarming to think that in less than a year we'll be married and we're still so incredibly poor at communicating sometimes. Or rather, that Victor is still so bad at communicating with me ( Read more... )

Judging by Victor's journal entry, you'd think I dragged him to the gallery yesterday morning at gunpoint. In actuality, I told him he didn't even need to come in if he didn't want to, but he told me he'd be bored if I was at work and he was alone at the flat, so he decided to come in anyway...and then complained the entire day about it. Go figure ( Read more... )

I'd like to thank all of our friends who came out for our engagement party last weekend, and especially June for hosting it. That certainly was quite a surprise! I'm amazed she was able to plan the entire thing without anyone leaking any news about it to us ( Read more... )

My flying lessons are quite fun so far. I had my first written exam last week and think I did very well on it. I wasn't sure how I'd do in a school environment considering it's been so long since uni, but I've adjusted to it very quickly. We've started doing airplane simulators as well. I can't wait until I can get into an actual plane with an ( Read more... )

Thank you to everyone who came out to dinner with me for my birthday last month, it was nice seeing you all. I had a very nice birthday this year; it's much more relaxing just having dinner with friends instead of feeling obligated to have a party, and I appreciated the cake Victor baked for me, even if it didn't quite turn out like the picture in ( Read more... )

By now I'm sure all of you have heard about Victor and my engagement, since he's spoken of little else the last month. Thank you for the well wishes we've received so far! After procrastinating for a few weeks, I finally broke the news to my parents last weekend. My mother wasn't as displeased as I'd imagined. Perhaps after my having been with ( Read more... )

Victor and I leave in a few hours for Heathrow. We'll be in Paris by this afternoon and I'll be proposing by this evening.

I'm not panicking. I'm not panicking. I'm not panicking.

It's amazing how time can get away from you. Victor and I have been very busy with the gallery lately. In Victor's last journal entry he mentioned that we've started working with Ruby, the woman who makes and photographs the edible art pieces. We're planning a show together this summer with a sort of combined multimedia format. Victor and my ( Read more... )
