Oh please. . .
Nothing to tell.
George is many great things, but romantic is not one of them.
We went together for 3 years and talked about getting married all the time. One night, out of the blue, he called me and said "Let's just do it!" Sounded good to me, so I said yes! Because my mom had never been well I knew I could never have a big wedding, so a small, family affair was what we had. It was a lovely day and it must have been the right thing to do because we'll be celebrating our 34th anniversary in October! Not a very exciting story, but it's ours.

Maybe.
But you have to tape his fangs closed and file his claws down to the hilt.

Now the show. Phenominal, with a capital OMINAL!! I was on the edge of my seat w/ goosebumps for 1/2 the show. So, so good. I loved that Rafiki was played by a woman, who happened to be amazing. The theater it's in now (Minskoff) is gorgeous...the upstairs lobby overlooks Times Square and it was beautiful w/ all of the snow (especially since we weren't out in it anymore ). Here's a pic on the way out of the lobby:

Dot! How can you say such a thing! Why must you always sell yourself short? That's a great story. Sweet and Loving. Not many men these days are romantic... lol but if they're faithful and loving. What else can we ask for? :lol:

34 years is amazing Dot. That's something BIG to be celebrated. :sohappy: :sohappy:

I was wondering where you disappeared to! So what's your proposal story? We've seen the pics... but what's the story behind the action?! ;)

I had to do some work.

And I posted my proposal story back when it happened...but here it is again (this is taken from my trip report back in May of 2005)

We left BB around 3:00 and decided to go back to the hotel to take a shower and change for that night. We originally planned to go to DTD that afternoon, but after we got back to the hotel, my b/f and I just crashed on the bed, so instead, we decided to take a little nap. So after getting some much needed rest, we headed to the Contemporary for our dinner at Chef Mickeys.

This was also my first time going to a character dinner. (sort of. There had been character dinners on the Disney cruise I took when I was a kid, but I hadn't actually gone to a "Character Dinner" before) I was SO excited about this b/c I had heard wonderful things about Chef Mickeys. (As recommended by the wonderful people here at WDWMagic.) We got there about 20 minutes early so I decided to look around the shops at the Contemporary and pretty much be in awe of the inside of the Contemporary. It is an absolutely beautiful hotel. (Although many of you already knew this.) After shopping, we went to go check in about 10 minutes early, however, we still ended up waiting about 20 minutes after our scheduled PS time just to get a table.

So finally, we got seated, and I loaded up on food. I liked pretty much everything except the green beans. Those just didn't have the right flavor to me. And OMG the mashed potatoes really are to die for! For desert I also ended up having some sort of chocolate mousse pie dealy do. I also got to meet Minnie and Goofy during the course of our meal.

Now, as we all know, Chef Mickey's is a place for children, so the staff does a lot of activities that involve not only children, but also the adults. So while I was eating my desert, one of the staff members came out and said, "Ok, now we're going to play a game. Everybody look under your chairs and see if there is anything underneath them." So everybody looked under their chair and when I looked under mine, there was a piece of paper stuck to the bottom of it. I opened the note and it said something about how I had to be blindfolded and was going to get a suprise. I thought..."Oh crap...what am I going to have to do now???" So I handed my boyfriend the camera and the staff member came over and blindfolded me. A few seconds later, the blindfold came off and Minnie was standing there. So I thought, "Oh, well I guess my prize is that all of the characters are going to come over, and I'm going to get my picture with them." Or something like that. But the lady saw that the blindfold came off, so she said, "Oops, not ready yet." So she then blindfolded me back up. After what felt like 30 seconds of being blindfolded they counted to 3 and then took the blindfold off me. When my vision reajusted...there was my b/f on one knee with a ring in his hand. I couldn't believe it! He was actually asking me to marry him (in a way that was pulled off so eloquently too!) I was in complete and utter shock...but of course I said yes. I was also suprised that I had been hanging around these boards for this long and had not once heard about someone being proposed to that way...which because of that managed to make the whole event turn out well since I didn't suspect him to do it there at ALL! (I did kind of suspect a proposal that night, but ironically I forgot all about it during dinner! ) Then Mickey came over and Minnie asked where was her ring, so Mickey got down on one knee and then kissed the back of her hand, then he kissed the back of mine.
