Erica is the most amazing person I know. My idea of telling tumblr that we were engaged was to post a picture from our trip that said “she said yes” followed by an extremely nerdy Star Trek reference, but of course she wrote something beautiful and heartfelt that made me think I couldn’t ever say enough to express my joy for this woman and this experience.
While she would have probably said yes if asked at our kitchen counter, or running late to a movie, I wanted to take her to Paris because a) it was also her birthday, and b) go big or go home, right?
But honestly, I would have spent every penny I had to take her to Paris. If I could, I would spend all the money in the world on her. I would buy her every whim without hesitation. If I couldn’t take her to Paris I would have torn down the Eiffel tower bar by bar and rebuilt every piece of iron on our corner. I would divert the Seine so it would flow down our street. I would do anything for her because she is that incredible.
I am the luckiest guy in the world.
