> > 1. It was my birthday, so why was I making breakfast?

> > (Now, to put this in perspective, I already knew what Sarah had gotten me. Since I'm the one who picks up the mail (we share a post office box), I had picked it up from the post office two weeks earlier. I had been bugging her since I knew what it was (Heroes Season 1 on DVD) that I should get it early, but she wouldn't bite.)

> > Anyway, I said I was over for my birthday present, and she immediately began to protest that I could not have it yet. So while she was off-guard and in mid-tirade (okay, tirade is a bit strong) I galantly dropped to one knee and asked her to marry me.

> > Really I could have said that I'd shot a hippo on the way over and had it stuffed in the deep freeze and she would have said "Yes" since Sarah admits she has no idea what I said, but she got the idea.
> >
> > I led her on for a couple of weeks now that she would have to wait until November for me to propose. I admit I made a couple of verbal slips beforehand that Sarah said make a lot more sense now (she accepted my excuse that I simply misspoke at the time), but I think the combination of 2 weeks early with first thing in the morning on my birthday threw her for enough of a loop that I caught her completely by surprise.
