It’s been a while since I posted, and there’s been plenty going on. The most important news is that Kelly, my girlfriend of four years, and I got engaged
The first question everyone asks when we share the news is, “have you set a date?”, which I’m told this is the knee jerk response to such news. Our response is that we’re just enjoying the engagement and will run away to Vegas (with immediate family) when the mood hits. Sure, we’ll probably rent a hall and plan a big-ass party for friends and family for when we get back, but neither of us are interested in a big wedding.
The other thing people want to know is how I asked. Well we have been talking about this for a long time, and had even picked out a ring together. That Saturday morning, we were laying in bed talking about how weird it would eventually be to start referring to the other as our fiance(e). I had her hold that thought, popped out of bed, ran down the hall to my office where the ring sat on a shelf, ran back, hopped back into bed and suggested we start getting used to it that very moment.
Kelly has been unbelievably supportive of the new business, and is gradually involving herself in the company more and more. She’s finishing up her Master’s in marketing, and it’s nice to have someone that knows more than online marketing helping me out. She’s my partner in crime, and in business!
