    So how did it go?
  • I am now engaged. Everything went perfect and luckily she said yes. Didn't know Just Breathe was coming tonight so I did it right after Sirens.
    We danced to the song and shared the moment as if we were alone. We were both singing to each other and emotional. I told her how I felt in her ear and she responded. Right when the song ended I got down on my knee and asked. She was crying and said yes. A bunch of people were cheering around us. Then, they went back into the song for a little reprise. I held her close and we kept dancing.
    Everyone around me was so nice and I really appreciate it. It made the moment even better than I imagined.

    I will post a video some friendly people made tomorrow when I get the video off my camera. It's pretty dark but you can see the actual proposal at the end of the song while people were snapping a bunch of still photos of us with flashes.

    BTW, if anybody knows anybody who happened to take a picture of us it would mean the world to me if I could track it down.

    I'm still buzzing from the moment and we are spending the rest of the night together, so I will post the followup update tomorrow.

    Thanks again to everybody. Your support means more to me than I could ever show..
