Responses to yesterday's question ran 5:1 on the side of "tacky," and the dissents largely seemed to assume I'm the one who's engaged. Nope. I assure you, should I ever find myself engaged again, there will be no "Come, let you adore me" engagement party.
No, I was asking because I blew off a friend's engagement party. I can't wrap my head around the concept, particularly with the collective fifth engagement. The fifth time 'round, are we still celebrating love?
