It happened in the Kitchen!

Alright, alright...I am finally posting about the engagement!

Monday,November 17, was our three year anniversary. I was at bible study until 9 and when I came home to Dan. When I got home there were a dozen roses on the counter and Dan was chopping away and getting supper ready. I felt bad because we already bought each other gifts a week ago and I didn't really get him anything for the actual day. Dinner was wonderful it was pasts with vodka cream sauce, wine, and tiramisu for desert. After supper we were standing in the kitchen and Dan got down on one knee and said will you marry me. And I said yes of course! It was sweet and perfect.
Was I surprised? A little but, as you may know I hate surprises and Dan doesn't really keep secrets all that well. I was surprised in the way it was done and that it was on a Monday night!
The ring is beautiful. Dan did a great job picking it out! It is an Emerald cut in a single setting. The band s white gold. Our camera is not good quality, good thing I asked for one for Christmas. So once I get my lovely sister to take a better picture I will post those :).

There really are no real plans yet, once there are I will let you all know!
Thanks for all the well wishes, I am truly blessed to have such great friends!

Raindrops On Roses and Whiskers on Kittens...

These are a few of my favorite things :)

(I know there is a lot of blogging going on tonight, but our Internet wireless router is not working right and this is the first time I have been on in awhile and I don't know when I will make it back again).

I love these American Apparel socks and shirts. I had to buy the socks for my Halloween Costume. And even though they were pricey..they were super comfortable. I guess I know, no small child made them...But their owner is a little creepy/sketchy...anyways I think the deep v shirts are my favorites :)





BOOTS!!! I never thought I would say that, but I love the new boots I have recently acquired! I recommend everyone get a pair! They keep my feet warm :)





Scarves!! They are perfect for my cold office space!

Tights! Target has them for cheap and some cute styles, they are also perfect for my cold office space. Maybe I will be brave enough to try leggings sometime. I said MAYBE.

Orange Tic Tacs- I ate a lot of them when I was Paulie Bleeker. Now I know why he can't get enough.

Panera-I can't get enough You Pick Two Combos. It isn't the best food I have ever eaten, but it is the perfect weather for A bowl of soup or salad or sandwich. It always hits the spot.

MGMT, The Killers, The Envy Corps, and The Black Kids, etc....Great music and when any of the songs play on my iPod,; it makes me HAPPY!!! If you want to know what songs I am digging on my ipod right now, ask me...Maybe I will blog about it later!

Dan's Wallpapers...I love them and the office ones crack me up!! They always brighten my day!

The 10...

Inspired by my friend's post. I have decided to make a list of boys as well. THis was hard for me to make...I don't really have "type" but I think we can gather I love good senses of humor and smart asses :). We all know I love my Dano, but he is exempt from this list...

1) Mark Ruffalo- He always plays, the sensitive, caring, funny boyfriend...He is from the Midwest, Wisconsin to be exact, so that in itself is appealing. Also he is Handsome, but not too hot. He also is scruffy and has a hairy chest :)



2) Ryan Gosling- After I saw the Notebook, he was on my list....


3) David Villa-Someone started making me watch soccer, I realized it wasn't so bad after all. Especially when the players for the team I like look like Orlando Bloom :)


4) Iker Casillas-see #3


5) James Franco- Ever since Freaks and Geeks...He was hilarious in Pineapple Express too :)


6) Andy Samberg- He is HILARIOUS


7) Paul Rudd- Also Hilarius and he plays jerks so well....I love his white man dance..





8)Conan O'Brien-Probably one of the funniest people EVER. Plus he graduated from Harvard so he has brains too!



9) Brandon Flowers- He is the lead singer from the Killers, he is a little odd, but it is kind of hot. Plus he is very talented.


10) Seth Rogen- In my defense I liked him on Freaks and Geeks. He was a smart ass and something about that was very appealing...

Halloween!

Well since my last couple of posts, my costume changed a little bit. I went as Paulie Bleeker from the movie Juno. My co-worker went as Juno. It was a great costume and we got a lot of compliments. A lot of people said I looked a lot like Bleeker, I am not sure how to take that...


It was a cheap costume and I think it turned out well.

Now Dan's costume is a little harder to explain, but I will try. There is a phenomenon on the internet called Rick Rolling . In short, it is a bait and switch prank. You click on a link expecting to see something and then the Rick Astley video "Never Going to Give You Up" starts playing. Last year for April Fool's You Tube 's prank was RickRolling everyone by having the featured videos all go to the Rick Astley video.
So Dan came to the party in a poorly made ghost costume.


After a half hour, he played the song and took of the sheet and became Rick Astley.



On the way to the party, he came up with the idea to buy Rolling Rock beer and change all the Os to Is (Rolling Rick). But it was too late...Maybe next year Dano!
