As always, I'm thankful for my family and friends. However, this year I am also thankful for Jill. I asked her to marry me this past Sunday, and she said yes.
For those who are curious, I proposed at Sonic, our favorite resteraunt. Seriously. When our weeks are hectic, we like to go there on mini dates and relax and talk over ice teas for an hour or so.
The car-hops typically give you a couple of mints when they skate over with the order. Knowing this, I took a spare mint, removed its wrapper, and replaced the candy with an engagement ring. Then Sunday, when we ordered at Sonic, I swapped out the mint they gave us with the wrapped ring. I guess I did a good job with the disguise, because she dropped the mint, and I had to insist she pick it up before she noticed it was a ring.
Anyway, more to follow...
