Look what I got *us* for our "Engagement day"
:P :*

That's right it was 3 years ago today that my then girlfriend and I were watching the sunset in Malibu and I turned to her-she the love of my life-and asked if she would marry me and spend the rest of our lives together. She said YES (no ring) and off we went into our life together with only the freakishly hellish experience of our wedding planning to stand in our way.

So as a bonus Valentine's Day type holiday we celebrate February 15th as our "Engagement Day".

I just got back from getting her/our gift

3. I sure hope so
What I have in romanticism is only to make up for what I don't have in handiness. I almost started a fire replacing the belt on the old vacuum.

11. Well, somebody had to say it.
Hoover sucked in 1929 and still sucks. I assume, of course, that you'll be using it the most, right? :evilgrin:

8. Very well
We go back in 4 weeks to have another SUPER ultrasound and probably find out the sex of the baby.

9. Mrs. XNASA simply had to have a Dyson....
And would settle for no less. So that's what she ended up with. Nothing.

Actually, there is no diamond on her finger. She abhors diamonds.

12. I saw one of those at Target too
$400? for a vacuum?

I don't like so. I can buy 6 of those hoovers for that price.

10. For our first Christmas together, i got my wife...
a sewing machine.

she had a pile of clothes that needed mending, and her old machine, which had been handed down to her by her mother, wasn't working.

people thought i was nuts, but she LOVED it, and 15 years later, we're still together.
