Taking the plunge and sharing pizza
March 11, 2005
What started out as a crazy busy work day turned into one of the coolest days ever.
To start Meegy and I had to ship out from staying at the Roger Williams hotel and transfer uptown a little to the ultra modern Alex on 45 and 3rd. We thought it would be cool to jump around a little since we were in town for a full week. So we checked out from the Roger Williams, worked in the lobby until about noon and moved on to our next stop.
Our room wasn't ready at the Alex so we quickly dropped off our bags and headed for the city. This outing took us by Donald Trump's building, some other really cool spots just south of Central Park and of course Central Park itself.
While in Central Park we strolled down what's known as the Mall and found a cool little area around a pond. Snow was on the ground, the pond was iced over, and well, I asked Meegy to marry me. And I'll be darned she said yes! Schazam we're getting married, just like that. We're very happy and I was really excited about everything surrounding the moment. Setting was romantic as the girls would say and I managed to keep my cool enough to speak in clear complete sentences :)
Once engaged we did what any newly engaged couple would do, we walked down to a Sabbaro for a slice of pizza and a drink. I know slow down big guy with all the romantic stuff, but hey anything for my Meegy.
Once done with our pizza, and still in shock from our special moment, we made our way back to our hotel and found out our room wasn't ready so they were going to upgrade us to a suite. Dang could this day get any better! After admiring our room and our view of the Chrysler building, we cleaned up and met some old Atlanta friends for dinner. After enjoying some mighty fine sushi and conversation it was time to get a little rest. What a day...
