I was waiting and waiting and I finally got him here! I was so worried it wouldn't happen. I was making contingency plans of a rendezvous in Mexico. I made my whole family agree to fly to Mexico to meet him if the punks didn't give him his visa. And now he is here, right next to me, at Jayme's house. He has met Lily, Jayme, Ross and Jayda. We are introducing him slowly. I am trying to avoid a big-fat-greek-wedding-style shock. Tomorrow, he will meet Shannon, Eddie, Alex and Ava. And after that, he will meet my parents!
I first picked him up in San Antonio in the freezing rain. We finagled our way into a really cheap rate at the Hyatt vacation club by agreeing to let them try to sell us a timeshare. After three days, 72 degree beautiful sunshine and blue sky accompanied us back to the ol' ATX. He has seen the green belt and bits of downtown, south suburbia and north suburbia. He is being introduced to tacos and tortillas and is making lots of cultural observations (see peeplaja.blogspot.com )Last night around the dinner table, Peep and Ross and Jayme and I were laughing hysterically trying to nod our heads the way Indians say yes. I finally got my bridge.
