This sounds like a really random goal in some respects. But it’s something I’m sure I want to do. We’ve been together a year, but since I had to leave college (where we both go) we’ve been long-distance. I want to commit, give up life in England and move back to America with her and continue the wonderful life we had begun together.

So this will be my longer-term goal. I will work on all the stuff in between, but this should be the last thing I tick off the list. All the other stuff should sort itself out before. So then the marriage will start the next volume and close this all-too-long volume.
