I've been quite the stress-puppy lately. I think of myself as a planner and never feel completely relaxed if there are things I can't control/plan. Yet even as I think about how much I enjoy knowing every detail of what's to come and having my ducks in a row--the best things that have happened in my life have been unplanned. I remember a trip in college with a friend where we booked tickets but didn't plan a single sight to see and had the best time wandering a new city and getting tips on where to go from locals and other visitors like ourselves. Even moving to Pennsylvania; I thought I'd go for the summer and see how things were in the fall and ended up staying for three years! And now of course there's Thomas...A little back story on how we met: Thomas had met one of my housemates in Northern Ireland years ago when she studied there. So, when Thomas's team was coming to Pennsylvania to film my friend approached the rest of the housemates and asked if we minded some Northern Irish house guests for around a month. I never said "no" but I did let her know I was a little nervous about sharing our home with strangers for a whole month...then one of them ended up being Thomas and the rest is history. And yes, she still teases me about how I *almost* didn't meet Thomas! I guess the whole point is: I shouldn't worry about being uncomfortable or not knowing exactly what is going to happen because that usually leads to good things. Life can be a pleasant surprise.
