A Leaping Superstition

According to superstition, Leap Day, the day that happens every four years, is the only, or the best, day for women to propose marriage to men.

Not that I have the option any longer, but I think I would eat an entire cheesecake all by myself before proposing to a man.
So that's not to say I wouldn't do it, I just think I would have to give it a lot of thought, and have lots of TUMS nearby.

How would that work anyways? I put the ring on my own finger? The man gets a ring?

Do any of you know any girl that has proposed marriage to a man?

I've proposed dinner plans, and I've proposed some vacation plans, I've even proposed solutions to relieving future flying car congestion - future flying traffic lights.

But why is it I can't imagine proposing marriage?

Maybe I'll have the answer when I think about this again...four years from now.

Chris Conquers 29


Today Chris celebrates his 29th birthday.

My early surprise birthday present to him was 2 tickets to see Monty Python's "Spam-a-Lot" in NYC.

I managed to pull off the surprise and Chris and I agreed it was probably the best show we've both ever seen.

What a treat the world got when this boy was born.

My love to the birthday boy.
