As if that isn't clear to anyone who has been reading me lately. :-)

Totally out of the blue, I've met someone marvelous, someone who is different from me in many ways and totally in sync with me in others. Someone who comes from a very different perspective on many issues--having had a considerably different life experience than I have--but with whom I still share some very basic and crucial values (and not just a belief in the importance of the four-man back line or an aversion to roller coasters :-). Someone who is open-minded, intelligent, honest, affectionate, smart, and funny. Someone who makes me incredibly happy and who is astonishingly, unexpectedly happy to be with me.

This was the last thing I expected to have happen right now, but it feels wonderfully, amazingly right. I don't know where it's going or what will happen next, but I don't really need to know that right now. Right now I can just relax and enjoy the pleasure that both of us find in spending time together, talking, walking, eating, kissing, petting our respective cats, or watching soccer.

Speaking of which, we have seats together for the DC United v. Chivas de Guadelajara Champions League match tonight. :-) And no matter which team scores the most goals, I know who the lucky winner is:

Me. :-)

I got my annual review today from my PM (who is also a chum and a fellow soccer fan): 4 marks out of 5 for performance, many nice things said, and a nice raise. Yay!

Despite being trained as a crack self-deprecator, I can say that I *do* do a good job at keeping our team running well and touble-free, dealing with our customer and all the support staff, and the last month or so doing all the case-flwo duties our admin would otherwise do. I know my weaknesses, but I recognize that though I always feel I am juggling breakable dishes here, I amd keeping a number of them in the air at once and letting very few drop. :-)
