I’m sure than most everyone already knows the events of the past week; but now I’ve taken some time to digest everything and breath…and blog.
Last week began with my parents finding their way out from Ohio. I drug them everywhere interesting I could think of and made them eat at a lot of places they generally wouldn’t have. Sorry dad. Somewhere in the mist of that I turned 25 and spent a good portion of that day at the beach. I enjoy low-key birthdays. Two days later I was awoken to the cats playing “run-over-jes’-face” and got up to find that Ian had PRESUMABLY gone to work early. Thinking not much of it, I gave him a call to make sure he INTENDED to go in early. After ensuring everything was fine, Dad and I headed to Lowe’s for some home improvement items. I got home and went to my computer to get directions to our next destination only to find a message from Ian letting my know there was a late birthday present game on my computer. I opened it and started playing, thinking I was playing a build of a project he’s been working on with friends. The little 8bit avatar of me should have made me suspicious. The alarmingly specific events in the game should have made me suspicious. When the final boss bugged and Ian had to remake the build and put it back on through the network I finally admitted that I wasn’t just playing a random game. Before I knew it 8bit Ian had a question for me and I turned to find flesh Ian walking toward me. I’m sure everyone knows what happened next and I said yes.
Congratulations Jes. Rather awesome way for Ian to pop the question too.
Sooo romantic

Oh that’s so cool, and I LOVE the method of proposal. He gets serious creativity and originality points.
By the way, after listening to you rave about Viva Pinata way back when we were in Slackers (this is Mani, btw), when it came out for the PC I finally got a copy, and am quite addicted now. Thank you.
