i'm running out of rope




got this from exploding dog. it made me laugh because i think this drawing sums up what waiting for a proposal for 3 loooong years feels like. i'm making a conscious effort to paint that thought black but every corner i turn reminds me of it. i swear! i turn on the TV and the only thing good to watch was My Bestfriends Wedding, i walk by a bridal shop every weekend in BTC, i attended a Yap family gathering and now stans uncle has gotten into the prodding and badgering.

what's a girl to do... what's a girl to do...

anyway, got on YM and johann starts chatting me up and eventually we get to the subject i'm trying to avoid. i relent and just vent. i think he's the first guy i've asked about what he thinks is going on in stans head. i have no clue since he never tells me anything nor does he address my subtle or overt hinting, letter writing and what not. anyway, we came up with a plan to just shut up about it for a year... or until the 3rd iStore has come into fruition. no hinting, no letter writing.. no nothing. if he doesn't after a year of silence from me, i don't know what'll work and i guess i'll just have to admit defeat. if he doesn't by then, he probably never will. in the meantime, i have to come up with a well rehearsed quip to say to fend off well-meaning friends and family whenever the subject arises.

any ideas?

Jokingly say, "I know! Stan's still waiting for me to propose to him." That should shut them up. Hahaha =)
