We're Engaged!

We're Engaged! We're Engaged! Did we tell you... We're Engaged!

We wanted to sit down and write an exposé on the whole situation, but as we sat down to draft it... everything kept sounding so weird coming from us directly. i.e. are we now saying, "this is Corey is typing," "and now this is Cristian."

After some brief toiling, we decided that it would be a perfect opportunity to share our feature on Mensvows.com

The following is a snippet of the story appearing on mensvow's website and social media accounts:

"To kick off their weekend, Cristian gave Corey his anniversary present: "a big scientific telescope, a bottle of whiskey and a surprise Airbnb in Joshua Tree." Cristian described how: "in my mind, Corey would be looking through the telescope and turn around to find me on one knee." As you can imagine, this didn't quite go as planned!

"We are both super nerds and when you present me with something like a telescope, I get very intense!" said Corey. Corey kept moving around the yard looking for a place where the wind wouldn't shake the telescope. Cristian was following with a Bluetooth speaker that would "score" the proposal, but they kept getting too far out of range. "It was all so not romantic," Cristian laughed, "running around the desert trying to get a shot of Mars!" Finally, "Corey wore himself out!"

They took to their terrace where the moment to propose finally arrived. Corey said: "let's just cuddle and look at the stars." The speaker was finally able to play John Legend's "Under the Stars." And, Cristian began reflecting on all of the experiences they'd shared together. "Then he nonchalantly threw in something along the lines of 'do you want to do this forever?’" Corey explained. "I said: yeah, sure, forever! To which Cristian said: 'no seriously, forever,' and that is when I looked back at him and found him on his knee with a ring."

So there you have it. A snippet of the evening that we'll remember forever. Oops Corny Meter on Blast! But really, AHHH We're ENGA(y)GED!
