How We Met
The totally crazy thing is that Fabian and I used to live on the same street for like a year when we were kids! We don't remember it but I guess they had to move away because his mom suddenly told his dad that they had to leave the neighborhood or else they were getting a divorce! My mom says she doesn't remember this but my dad does.
Anyway, like, flash-forward like twenty years later. My girls and I (hi Jennifer!!! Hi Jenny!!! Hi Jen!!!!) were at Goodbar on a Saturday night last year, you know, just scoping out the scene and I see this totally hot guy from across the room. He looks at me and I'm like "Who, me?" and he's like "No, not you, your friend," so I guess that that explains how Jenny met Todd, but the point of the story is that Fabian was standing behind Todd. So he comes up to me and he is like "Hi" and I'm like "Hey, what's up" but on the inside I'm totally like "This is my future husband!!" and it was true.
Fabian's version of the story is a little different: he says that he said "What's up" and that I said "Hi" but we're working that one out!
How it Happened
After four months of dating I was like "Okay this had better be going somewhere or I am out of here" and Fabian is like "Okay, I love you" and I said "Nice try, but I need a rock on my finger to keep me here!" and he was like "Okay, what do you want?" and I was like "No, I want to be surprised!!!" So I spend the next five months figuring out how I wanted to be surprised and told Jennifer and Jen about it (Jenny and I are not speaking because she says that I'm stealing her thunder. What-ever.)
So anyway finally Jennifer and Jen tell Fabian about how I want it all to happen so he totally surprised me! First he took me blindfolded in a car out to Amish country. Then we took this totally romantic buggy out to some field and I picked out a cow that I'd like to eat for dinner that night. Then Fabian pays one of those Amish people to build some barn right there on the spot and they cook the cow for us. And little did I know but he had fed the ring (two and a half carats, baby!) to the cow so when I cut into the most tenderest part of the filet (like the tenderest love we feel for each other) the ring was on my fork! Then Fabian radioed the weather machine that he built especially for me to arrange for it to spell out "MISTY, WILL YOU DO ME THE PRIDE AND HONOR OF TAKING MY HAND IN MARRIAGE? LOVE, FABIAN" written in lightning.
And I was like "Well, I have to think about it, this is all such a surprise!" And after two weeks I said yes! Then we told my parents, and they totally cried, and we told Fabian's parents, and they were excited too but his Dad looked kind of uncomfortable when we said they'd have to meet my parents one day, but I don't know, he's kind of weird.
Then we told Fabian's friends and Jennifer and Jen although now I'm not talking to Jennifer because I was like "Guess what happened?" and she was like "I know, I helped you plan it" and I was like "That's not very supportive!!!!" and so now she sucks.
