Love is in the Air

Breakfast this morning with friends, two of whom announced at the end of the meal that they were engaged! They're 60!  Doesn't that give you hope?  All is not Romney and Rush and Syria and the San Francisco sheriff.

Arnold worked with me at UC Berkeley for about ten years.  Long-divorced, he met Alison three years ago.  She'd had a painful divorce.  A friend introduced them.

My friend Suzanne and I just about did high-fives across the table.   I felt that cry-with-happiness impulse, took a photo, and waved good-by. The wedding is September 22.   I'm definitely saving the date.
