Love’s Precious Moments

(My boyfriend and I have just returned from a Renaissance Festival. We are both huge geeks and immensely proud of it. When we get back, I get down on one knee, and take out a black ring box.)

Boyfriend: “Uh…” *stares blankly*

Me: “It’s not what you think.”

Boyfriend: “O…kay…”

Me: *opens ring box* “Will you…” *tears up* “Will you take this ring to Mordor, and throw it into the fires of Mount Doom?”

(He cracks up hysterically. I had won a Lord of the Rings replica of the One Ring at the Faire.)
