Hi...

[cally]

I''ve been lurking on the board for a while now, and I started to feel like a bit of a stalker... so for my own sanity I thought I''d join and say hello.

This place is super helpful, and I love hearing about everyone''s experiences, some so similar to mine.

And I''ve learned far more about weddings/diamonds/jewelry than I ever thought I would.

So, I guess... hi! I''m Cally.

Hi Cally! Welcome! I just joined too. Don''t you just love this site? It''s so addicting! So much for work productivity!

I know, it''s amazing how often I just.... drift towards the site during the day. It doesn''t help that I have weddings on the mind a lot, and this whole message board is just SO CONDUCIVE to that.

Hello Cally,
Welcome to PS, glad to see you are out of "stalker mode"!! I am fairly new to PS and also find this forum soooo informative and helpful and just LOVE it!

 

[cally]

Thanks for the Welcome, So Excited! Everyone does seem super friendly, I''m glad to be on board... as opposed to stalking.

Also, I guess I should have said some things about myself. Instead of just opening with Hi, I''m a stalker, and moving on...

I''m this socially awkward in real life, too. Promise.

I''m 24, about to be 25. I''ve been with my bf for almost 5 years (anniversay in April! Eeek!), we''ve lived together for almost 3. We met in college. I''ve just finished up my master''s degree, and I''m bitter about it (stupid student loans).
We first talked about marriage almost two years ago now, when I had a friend getting married, and both decided that uh.. not while I was in school. Then school ended, and I kind of became obsessed... and started wondering... where''s my engagement? Haha.

Other than that, I''m a big dog person and have two, and I''m just adoring looking at pictures of everyone''s jewelry- erings and everything else.

Welcome, Cally! Glad you felt comfortable enough to stop being a lurker and join in the fun (and insanity). Hope your stay is short and sweet.

From another dog person.
