Sparkle

June 14, 2011

Are you seeing anyone? my friend’s mother asked, and I bubbled out more information than the answer required.

When I paused to breathe, she asked, Is it a forever thing?

I don’t use that word anymore, I said. I’ve been wrong more than once.

Well, you just sparkle when you talk about him, she said. You realize that?

I’m very lucky, I said. Things are good. They’re very, very good.

    Did you meet him via OkCupid? If so, you should some how give them kudos. Gives me some faith, too. haha
