Marriage Proposal
Today I was proposed to. By a 16-year-old boy at the craft market. He took stride next to me and said "Hey you. I like you. I want to marry you." He later told my friends and me that he loves American women. Apparently we have "curvy bodies." Charming. He also told us that he wants to marry an American girl so that he can become an American and join the marines. (at least he's honest) We tried to encourage him to stay in Liberia, stressing that the country needs people like him to provide honest law enforcement. ...still, it's nice to know I have an offer on the table...

Congratulations Marla! When is the date?
I haven't set one yet. Since the gentleman who proposed is allegedly only 16, it'll have to stay on the back-burner for at least a couple of years.
it's always nice to have a fall back option. i currently don't have a back up. or even a first up for that matter.
