As some of you may know, my fiance proposed to me a few months ago at the top of Mulholland Drive with a mariachi band (throw in a few backwards-talking midgets, and we would be in a David Lynch movie!)

Relationship ‘Blind Spots’

Even if a surveillance is perfectly planned, there is always the danger of a ‘blind spot’: The unexpected moving van, the gardener or the lost tourist who blocks my view. Relationships have blind spots too, and it’s almost always hardest to see your own. That’s where I come in!
