Taken by surprise (or, The universe is being weird again)

So, a month ago today I was hanging out in a dimly lit bar and unexpectedly found myself being flirted with by this strange bearded guy.

Fortunately he seemed harmless enough, and in a shocking display of boldness, I flirted back. One thing led to another, and...well...let's just say that things in this neck of the woods have gotten rather disgustingly mushy, rather surprisingly quickly.

All things considered, we are clearly both barking, howling mad. But that doesn't seem to be stopping either of us.

More months like this to come, I hope. Wish us luck--we may need it.
