So I am taking a page out the Wedding section and decided to start a journal of this crazy little endeavor we are going to embark on.
So we'll start from the beginning because it gets more complicated when you start things from the end. We met May 23, 2004 at a bar in Long Beach, CA called the Mineshaft (someday I will open a Victorian tea room and call it The Mineshaft). It was pride weekend so the bar scene was pretty happening.
We met in the smoking patio and it was love at first sight (corny as it may sound, it really was). For the next 3 hours it was like we were the only two people in the world, except for the people that were still trying to pick up on my man despite my having his total attention. Someone went so far as to bring him a drink, he said thanks and turned right back to me. He's definitely the good-looking one
Flash forward four years to May 23, 2008. We're having a very nice romantic anniversary dinner at the Napa Rose in Disney's Grand Californian Hotel. Our entrees have just been cleared and we're waiting for dessert, he's holding my hand and he slips this ring on my finger
Then he started to say something about the pharaohs blah blah blah, it all just melded into mush in my mind. I don't remember a thing about dessert, it looked delicious, but I can't remember eating it. I can't recall ever being in such a dazed state.
All I could say was, "you know it's customary to wait for a person to say yes before you put the ring on their finger." He said he knew what my answer was going to be so he didn't have to ask the question.
Ok, so this is a particularly long post so I will end it and continue with more Disneyland wedding details in the very near future. I have so much pent up energy and excitement and this gives me a place to put it all
