Well it''s almost D-Day! Jeez it feels like it''s been a long process, I''ve spent quite a fair amount of time on these message boards I feel like I know a lot of people pretty well by now (just from having read your posts). So now it''s time to pop that final question and I wanted to run my proposal idea by everyone and see if you have any suggestions, comments, ideas, etc...
My gf will be coming home from work in the late afternoon, and I will have a single rose laying at the front door. There will be rose petals leading in from the hallway for a bit, leading her to my mp3 player laying on the ground and a note telling her to press play. I will have recorded a message for her about going on a "quest" to find treasure, etc. I will instruct her to walk to the basketball courts of our complex where I have hidden another message underneath the bleachers. This will contain a "puzzle" for her to complete with questions and answers relating to our relationship. In order to de-code the puzzle she will need to call a "mystery" phone number (a friend of mine) to get the answer key.
The message will tell her to drive to another friend''s house and go to their front door. There will be a sign on that door telling her to listen to track # ___ on the mp3 player which will have another message. That message will tell her to drive to another closeby neighborhood and gives her specific instructions on how to find a box that I will have hidden. Inside the box will be printed out lyrics to a song that I wrote for her (which she has heard before but probably didn''t know it was about her), all the meanwhile I will have that same song playing on the mp3 player as she''s walking to find the box. Inside the box along with the lyrics will be a small photo album, and I have assembled a collection of about 100 photos of us over our 5 years together. The last page will be a note for her to go home to the apartment.
Once she enters the apartment, there will be another trail of rose petals leading to our bedroom. I will have tons of candles and rose petals all over, and I will do my "thing" from there. I have special ordered our favorite bottle of wine from a local winery where we used to live, and am making reservations at a nice restaurant to celebrate.
And that''s about it. Of course there is a little more detail to each step than I have actually described, but that''s the gist of it. So what do you think? Any other recomendations or ways to make it better?
Thanks a lot!!!
