How Mr. Rant Got Me

The early days

I've been thinking about doing this post for a while, an inspiration from fellow expat/Mommy blogger Stay at HomeBabe. An email from Mr. Rant during our long distant courtship. I figure, 4th of July is the perfect day! He is the reason why I'm missing it anyway (which does not bother me 363 days out of the year)  

Mr. Rant and I spent 3 months in long distant limbo, not quite knowing if we were going to be able to meet again or not. Here's the original email he sent to let me know he was coming to San Diego:


hey!
first, a random question, did your parents liked the
statue? how did your mom reacted?


second, wait for me in a month or less, i spoke to the
girl and they selected someone else to the job, she
said they found somebody with very good experience on
the third sector, that is non-profit orgs...


so i take that as a sign in our behalf.


wait for me!


i will see what or how i can do to get my brasilian
skinny butt over there.


gotta go and talk about this with my parents.


love
daniel


Btw, the statue he is referring to is a lladro my Father asked me to get for my Mother while in Spain. Daniel helped me pick it out.
