We're engaged!!
Now that we've gone public, I can finish my story about how this has been the best week ever.
Scott surprised me by picking me up at the airport 6 AM when I came back. I wasn't expecting him to come-- I had planned on taking the train. He ended up in the wrong terminal and it was this huge struggle to haul my bags across the airport and in and out of several inter-terminal shuttles and fight with someone in a shuttle car, by the time I finally saw him I was already on the verge of tears. I don't think I've ever been so happy to see his face. I ran up to him and he gave me this big hug--
And then pulls this little box out of his pocket, gets down on one knee, opens the box, and asks me to marry him.
I cried. I laughed. I squealed. I hugged him. I jumped up and down. I said yes.
It was perfect. I was so surprised. And my ring is absolutely phenomenal. It still hasn't fully sunk in. This time, its fo real real. Not fo play play ;o) I've been on such a high for 3 days now.
Somewhere along the line Scott got better at expressing these things than I. His lj said it better than I ever could, and pretty much summed up how I feel as well.
We're perfect for each other. I love him more than I knew was possible. I am still struck by how incredibly lucky I am. I'm happy to the point that if I think too much I cry. I am going to marry the most extraordinary person I have ever met. There is nothing I have ever wanted in my life more than this.
