Most of you know our story... or at least most of it, but for those of you who are still clueless, it will be my pleasure to fill you in (briefly).
I met my fiancee (W) at his brother's house where I was working as a
babysitter child caregiver. At the time he was working odd shifts as a parking enforcement officer where he would work a bunch of shifts in a row and then get a long weekend off. Being the workaholic that he is, W would then drive 5 hours to his brother's place where he would work for his brother in the machine shop. After exchanges via Facebook and then email, we got to know each other quite well and had our first date approximately a month after meeting.
To twist things even more, in November he joined the military and was shipped off to basic training. We survived the first month, and then he got approximately 3 weeks off for Christmas; only to return to base for another 10 weeks. We passed the test of separation with flying colors, and on March 12 W proposed in front of his entire platoon after his graduation.
A parking enforcement officer... known in these parts as a "parking Nazi" and held in rather low regard. But since he's only a former parking nazi I suppose I'll let it slide ;)
