It's Christmas morning. Winter's Veil (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/11/the-achievements-of-winter-veil/) sprinkles snow over the idyllic mountains near Ironforge while gnomes frolic across the battlegrounds working to get With A Little Helper from my Friends (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=252). Most of us have the good sense to sleep in late. Some of us, however, have big plans.
With the aid of a homemade Christmas card featuring my own gnomified (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/11/the-achievements-of-winter-veil/)dwarf Warrior and a Tuskarr fishermen, I popped The Question to my dearly beloved Dranei Priest (and sometimes Nelf Druid) today. She said yes, which was precisely the result I was hoping to get. Here's how it went down.
Sitting by the tree, I asked her to wear a blindfold for a moment. Working quickly, inspired by a Tuskarr quest, I sprinkled Swedish Fish (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_Fish) down the hallway. Then, I removed the blinder, handing her the home-made Christmas card. On the front was a screenshot (above) of my dwarf completing the quest The Way to His Heart... (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=11472) and on the inside it said "Follow your heart ... and the fish." She followed the trail of gummy fish to where I'd hung a necklace strung with the proxy ring. (Since this is the second time at bat for both of us, she wanted to help pick out the ring.) And voila, I had the best Christmas ever.http://www.wowinsider.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.wowinsider.com)She said yes, and I thank the Tuskarr (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/25/she-said-yes-and-i-thank-the-tuskarr/) originally appeared on WoW Insider (http://www.wowinsider.com) on Thu, 25 Dec 2008 18:00:00 EST.
