So, I'm going to do this in chronological order, because as an engineer - or at least a person who's been trained to think like one for the past year, nearly - that makes the most sense to me.
1. I told you that Salvio and I were kind of going out.  Well, on Friday, he asked me to meet him at the church - he was leaving for the weekend in another hour, and we were going to hang out a little bit before he left.  When I walked in with Penny, he was playing piano.  He didn't say anything until we were up there next to him.  Penny introduced herself as "the annoying third wheel" and left soon after.  At that point, I leaned against the piano, and asked him what was up.  Still playing, he nodded his head towards the other side of piano.  That's when I noticed the flowers and the card sitting on the piano.
That's all the detail you're getting there.  Suffice to say that he asked me out officially.  Since then, he's been better to me than anyone else ever has been.  I'm crazy about him.
2. I got baptized this last weekend.  My pastor was great.  I'm so happy about my whole life right now.  I'm also very tired.  But it's worth it.  God is good.
