well, i knew that he had just gotten the ring, so i was expecting it to happen at any time. He was annoyed by that and determined to catch me off guard. he knew that if he took me out anywhere i would know he was planning to propose. yesterday he said that he would pick up some pizza for dinner. i was dissapointed b/c i figured that meant he would not propose that day. he called me when the pizza was at his place and i started to head over. on the way, i thought "maybe all of our friends will pop out when i get there and he will propose and then we will have a party ." once again, i was dissapointed to arrive to see that the apartment was empty and he was laying like a lump on the sofa. I reached to get a slice of pizza and in the pizza box was the ring!!! I turned around to find that he was on one knee!! that little rat actually tricked me!! Thank you for asking. I also want to thank all of you for your well-wishes!
it seems like pizza plays a big part in lots of engagements (we ordered pizza the night we got engaged and he did it while we awaited the delivery and my good friend proposed to his girlfriend by meeting the pizza delivery guy in the hallway and asking him to "deliver" the ring to his girlfriend as he waited in the wings).
your story is so cute! so exciting!!
