Trip to Dara's
So I was up visiting Dara last week, and we had some exciting news.
Sunday night, I made dinner for us when she came back from work, and afterward we put on a dance CD I'd made her for Valentine's Day. Most of it was swing dance music, and we danced to a couple of those, at which point a couple of slow songs came on.
The first one was "Can I Have This Dance For the Rest of My Life." I began singing along with the last chorus, and on the last line (which is the title, slowing down as it goes), I dropped to one knee and pulled out the engagement ring.
Short version: I asked. She said yes.
