...I'd like you to meet my fiance

so today was our first formal event as an engaged couple. it is amazing how many people are truly excited (even if they don't know you) to know that you are engaged. since I'm not one for whipping up conversation it makes those awkward pauses a whole lot easier....EVERYONE can talk about a wedding - maybe we should just say engaged forever to alleviate those silenced moments in conversation everyone dreads.....or is that just me?
