Actually, not in the morning, more like 2 years or so…but I’m engaged! Squeee! 
It’s neither mundane nor pointless to ME, but probably is to most of you
Congratulations!
Thanks!
Will link a pic to the ring later on, badbadrubberfiance took a pic to put on his fotolog, but it won’t be there until sometime late this evening.
Congrats.
We’ll get you to the church on time…
Heh, well get me to the Justice of the Peace on time, anyway
Well, good on you!
2 years…plenty of time to go crazy with the planning! 
Congrats!
Now we need details! Who proposed to who, and how?
Yes!!! Details!!! Was it a surprise? Did you cry? Did he cry? I remember waking up the morning after we got engaged, looking at my ring and crying again!
I’m crying now thinking about it…
Congratulations!
Congratulations! Wishing you both luck and joy in your life together.
Thanks everyone!
Anyway…he proposed to me!
We’d talked about it before, and looked at rings and such, so it wasn’t a huge surprise or anything. He bought the ring, but was going to wait until New Years to ask me, then got over-excited and got down on one knee when we came back from shopping on Black Friday. He did it in the room we were sharing at his aunt and uncle’s house, where we were staying for Thanksgiving.
We are going to have a wedding, but not a church wedding, just a JP, as he’s an atheist and I’m agnostic. My dad has it in his head that we should have in in Disney World, mostly because he wants to go, but we’re not sure yet.
If my dad doesn’t have his way, it will be in New Hampshire, where my family lives. We made a deal where, since I’m going to be uprooting from Boston to St. Louis for a few years, we get to have the wedding here.
The ring!

Also, I do believe I forgot to mention that we met on Yahoo! Personals, so don’t be discouraged, ye of internet dating arenas!
First - Congratulations.
Second - I’m normally not impressed with diamonds but yours is beautiful!
Third - If you do get married in NH, I recommend the Stonebridge Country Club in Goffstown.
Congrats!
Nice ring!
Nice horse.
Oh! Shiny!
That’s what I said!
Lol.
Over the past year or so I’ve gotten into the habit of referring to jewellery as ‘shiny things.’
It IS really sparkly, actually
And so y’all know, that is me with the horse - an awful picture of me, which makes it look like I have no chin, but it is me.
Those are his cousin’s horses, where we went for thanksgiving dinner. Ohhhhh…pretty horsies…
First, YAY! on the engagement thing.
Second, nice rock ya got there.
Third, just to prove that I could not possibly be any gayer than I already am, I now have “Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend” playing in my head.
Congrats!
And am I correct that his name isn’t really Nic Asshat?
Hehe…his name’s Nic, but “Hat” is a nickname from his undergrad years…when he opened the fotolog, he called it “nicolashat” and then LATER realized what it looked like
