Me: Hi. You guys are my heroes.
DW: Hey. What are you guys doing tonight?
Me: Watching your DVD. Again.
DW: Cool.

Yeah, I’m dumb.

To those who don’t follow me on twitter or facebook: On Wednesday, I asked Kelly to marry me, and she said yes.

We haven’t set a date yet, but we’re thinking January 2010, maybe in Florida. The time and location aren’t solid at all. We’re not sure yet. We’re in the process of trying to buy a home now, so we’re taking one giant life event at a time.

What a crazy day.

First of all — I’m now an uncle. Lisa and Pat have a little girl named Isabelle Marie. I can’t post any pics until Lisa’s updated her blog.

So, yeah. Pretty amazing.

Then there was the election, of course. Kelly and I were both very happy and excited, but it was tempered by the fact that we were watching the results come in with my parents, who are pretty conservative. So we couldn’t jump on the furniture while giving each other high fives.

As I’ve mentioned earlier, I’m not interested in discussing politics much here right now. I will say that I’m proud, that it was historic, and that both candidates’ speeches last night were inspiring.
