Advice Needed

Hey Blog friends, doing some research and need some help here. I am wanting to know if you are a single lady how would you want to be proposed too, like where, when, how, all the details. Single fellas, any creative, cool ideas of proposing? Married bloggers, guys and gals please. How did your spouse pop the question, or for the male gender, how did you go about doing it? Was it a grand event, something small, hide it in the food come on people give me all the details please :)

I think I chose a Phat Tuesday topic that TGP will like, I felt bad because I don't think she and I are relating very well thru my entries. Or maybe she just complains too much hmm? I am still open to suggestions of what she would like me to write about, I will write about almost anything TGP. I had a great day today, I never left my house. I love these kind of days! I watched March Madness ALL day long. Saw Winthrop take the Big South, Murray State, the Racers, take the OVC, and the Belmont Bruins conquer the Atlantic Sun all earning tickets to the big dance in a few weeks. Watched the team that beat the Lady Kats last Saturday get clobbered, karma perhaps? I still managed to sneak in some Missouri Valley semi final action with Bradley, and Southern Ill. advancing. So you could say this was a hoops filled day for yours truly. Oh, I almost forgot Duke lost on Senior day bet that sucks JJ Redick. Congrats to Shife, I know he has to be on cloud 9! Tomorrow I am heading to Conseco Fieldhouse for the Big Ten Women's semi finals. Our beloved Boilers go up against IU(BOO!!) Remember to BOILER THE FUCK UP!! So, you could say this was a basketball weekend for me, I freakin' love this time of the year!

Guess what I got in the mail today?? My invitation to my 10 yr HS reunion, and that means Nutty will be getting hers soon if she didn't already get it. Our class is so lame, the 5 yr was a pot luck dinner catered by us, didn't go to that. This one is catered, and a picnic in the park the next day WHOOPIE. I will not be attending this, nor will I be sending back my little slip with all my information on it, I don't want those people knowing how to contact me! I don't know if Nutty plans on attending or not, what do you say Nutty, you answering Yes or No?

Alright please help me with the advice, it would be greatly appreciated. Have a great Sunday kids.
PHATS

HAIL PURDUE!

My hubby proposed at the Jefferson hotel here in Richmond. It is a 5star place and known for its elegance and history. It overlooks Main street which is where we first hung out together...at a place on Main.

He told me to have a bag packed for Valentines Day, and picked me up from work and I didn't know where we were going. He had all of these little sweet personal touches in the room (like bought us matching robes and brought our slippers from home, candles, etc) and proposed to me while looking out the window upon the place where we first met, etc.

I feel that it should be relaxed and just the two of you and perhaps include lots of things she likes to do or things she likes. Everything was so sweet and nice, from the dinner-in and room service for breakfast next morn, to the candles, music, gifts. I was spoiled!! :)

personally, i don't want anything too cliche and i don't want to expect it. i would prefer to do it simple and have it just between the two of us.... but he has to ask my parents permission.

UNC kicked Duke's ass on Senior Night. It was awesome.
As far as proposals go, I popped the question to Mrs. Shife during my sister's wedding reception. I got my sister's permission of course, and I also asked my now father-in-law for his permission as well. Anyway I had a special song picked out, we danced, I pretended I had to tie my shoe and then I stayed on one knee, broke out the ring and asked her to be my wife. It was cool to do it in front of my family.

I posted this answer on your previous blog but I will repeat it here because I like to see my name up on all the comment sections..

I think something quiet and romantic is nice..the ring in the champagne glass has been done already...don't climb any ladders or anything, you'll just fall and embarrass yourself...how bout if you take her back to the first place you met...*shrug*,

I can't recall how i was proposed to, It took too long to block it out of my memory

Good Luck (even if it's not really about you and you're just asking a general question not pertaining to you or your particular circumstance)..uh huh !

You guys are all AWESOME!!!

Shannon- that's really romantic and cool, I totally like the idea of asking the father. Get on the good side of the inlaws right away!

Shife- That must have been really special to have all your family and friends there to see it. My sister would probably not have let me do it at her wedding, she is such a spotlight hog haha! JK

Spy- I laughed at your other comment on the one below cute. It was really about me, but I was trying to be clever and throw you all off. It's going to be awhile though but I have some ideas.
