So Rolith asked me a question tonight...

But oh, you guys already knew!  Of course you did! I'm surprised (REALLY surprised) we were able to keep something so huge (to us) a secret for so long.

When Rolith asked me to marry him tonight, I said "yes"!  I THINK my exact words something like "yes, oh yes!" but the last couple of hours are a little hazy.  I think I'm still a little lightheaded.  I am so very incredibly, completely happy.  And I'm thrilled that you guys were able to share Rolith's INSANE secret plans with him!  Like he said, we met and fell in love thanks to Artix Entertainment, DragonFable, and the amazing community that has grown up around them.

So, how did he do it?  That's a funny story:

The last night of the first Dragon*Con we met at, we found a little corner off a small hallway at 3am.  We sat down and talked for four hours about nothing and everything.  How little we knew that two years later, he would take me to that very same hallway and ask me to marry him! 

And, true story, the first people to congratulate us were two strangers (one a man in a black leather kilt. I love Dragon*Con!) who walked into the hall right after Rolith asked me.  They didn't say anything, just walked down to the end of the hall, stopped, turned around, and came back to us.  The man walked up, shook Rolith's hand and congratulated us.  Then they walked away.  Strange man and pretty lady, I don't know who you are, or if you'll ever read this, but thank you very much for sharing the happiest day of my life with me!

So, now I know! And you know! And I'm going to sign off now by thanking you all for sharing the happiest night of my life with us.  I'm going to go spend some time with Rolith.  Goodnight!
