What a Weekend!!!

So... I really should consider changing the name of my blog from "18 and single" to "19 and engaged". Yep. Mr. III proposed. Let me tell you about it.

We had to leave the puppy at home, sadly. So, his family has a boat on Lake Travis, so we left around noon to start it up (just so you know, I have no idea whats going on.) After a few "boat troubles", we finally were on our way. He took me to a marvelous restaurant called Abel's on the Lake (I recommend it to anyone, not just because I was proposed to there, but because it was TASTY!) which you can park a boat and go in as well as drive. So, we got there, and went in, and had a marvelous lunch. I had the chicken fried steak, with macaroni and cheese and onion rings. The chicken fried steak was amazing, the macaroni tasted really good, but I wasn't too much of a fan of the onion rings. Not to say they wouldn't be good to someone else, because Mr. III ate his and mine. So, at the end of the dinner, they brought me out a plate of brownie and vanilla icecream, and written on it "Will you marry me?" He got down on one knee, looked up at me, and asked. I was tempted to say "FUCK YEAH!" but there were children... and puppies present so I just said "Definitely yes!" and we kissed and the whole restaurant clapped. We had Skinny there too, who laughed. I was so... I don't know... some emotion, that I can't explain... I just couldn't eat for a while. But, when I did dig into that brownie, it was like heaven. Oh, my goodness... it tasted SO good.

After that, we continued our boat ride around (I had wished I had brought my bathing suit so we could possibly take a dip, it was HOT!) and then went on a horse-drawn carriage ride in Austin. I loved it, it was gorgeous. The pony was one of those you don't necessarily come by that often. He didn't like just standing around, he was like "why the hell are we here? Lets get going! NOW! I'm working!" I was like... that horse is awesome. I may get a job with them, lets see. They told me they had a shortage of drivers, so I'm applying.

Overall, it was a wonderful night. Except trying to sleep. The puppy doesn't like to stay asleep for more than a couple hours.
