My girl and I (2 years) just got back from vacation in NYC. I came up with this while we were watching Wicked from the front row (we won the ticket lottery).
I''m thinking Mid-March, Spring Break maybe (it''ll take me that long to get funds put together for this, plus she''s a nursing student). I''d tell her on a Friday morning that we''re going to a show tonight and to be ready by 2:30. Having pre-packed an overnight bag and my suit, I''d dress at work and hire my Limo driving buddy to drive me home to pick her up. Driving toward the city, we''d turn off at the airport and get on a plane for a weekend stay in NYC. I''ve looked at flights and there''s one that leaves non-stop at 4:15 that would put us there at 6:45. I figured on getting tickets to Phantom or another headliner (recommendations would be great) then a nice dinner somewhere, finishing up at the Top of the Rockefeller building. I''ve looked at staying at the London(we stayed at the Millenium Hilton last week), they have rooms with Central Park views.
My conundrum is "When do I pop the question!??" As soon as she sees the airport she''ll know the jig is up, we''ve been talking about getting engaged for last few months already. She''s a geek for the airport, love''s ''em! Should we walk off the gantry in NY and I get down on one knee right in front of the entire airport? Should I keep her waiting (she''ll be a basket case) until right before or after the show? Or should I contain myself until we get to the Top of the Rock? I''ve been married before, I''m an experienced, successful 30 year old man. But, I''m nervous and shaky like a Prom date just typing this.
