this afternoon we’re off to Saskatoon to meet more of my family. this should really be the last of it — new family, i mean. and introductions. and first impressions.

we went to see “Four Christmases” last night and — while it wasn’t that great* — i sort of wish our familial festivities only took one day and that we could fly to Fiji tomorrow to get away from it all. it’s weird to meet someone and fall in love and create a little life together on a little deserted island, only to have reality come crashing in when you get back to the mainland. i’m head over heels for this guy, so i want everyone to like him and i want everyone to like me and i want him to like everyone…

and i know that’s not necessarily possible. certainly not after just a few days.

so i’m done stressing. if this is really meant to be between us, it’s just the beginning of many many many holidays to come. and stressing about keeping everyone happy every holiday season must be a recipe for absolute and total UNhappiness.

i’m happy and he’s happy. that’s the whole goal, right?

please tell me that’s the goal. otherwise i might be in serious trouble over here. : )
