Today, Alana agreed to be my prom date. Allow me to describe how I went about asking her.
I burnt "Lay Lady Lay" onto a blank CD (the Magnet cover, not Bob). On the top of the CD I wrote a nice little message which can be summarized as "prom?"
I had Jackie place the CD in Alana's car stereo (she turned the car off with the stereo on, such that the stereo would come back on as the car was started).
[I don't know how the discovery actually went down, but here is how I envisioned it]
Alana, on her way to lunch, would start her car. Hearing a strange (but lovely) song coming from her speakers, she would be surprised. Indeed bewildered?
"What the hell is the deal with this music?" She would wonder, perhaps aloud.

::Alana reads message::
As Ian and I drove to the bakery, we passed Alana and her friends, who were eating at the VegeHouse. She happened to see me in the car as we were coming to a stop at the intersection. She smiled, and flashed two thumbs up.
Which I interpreted to mean "yes."
Wow. Now prom seems more legitimate.
