Well, it's Valentine's Day again. I used to hate this holiday. I guess if you ask most people, they are for it if they have a "significant other" to celebrate it with. Most singles HATE this holiday... and then they hook up with someone and the next time the holiday rolls around, it's all, "I LOVE VALENTINE'S DAY!"
Well, I do love this holiday, so there!!
Melissa dropped by our old theatre stomping ground, Backdoor Theatre (http://www.backdoortheatre.org/) over the weekend. She picked up the tape of the perforance of 1998's production of Lovers snd Other Strangers. Melissa and I played an engaged couple in the final scene. My character (Mike Hunt) shows up to confront Melissa's character (Susan) and inform her that he does NOT want to get married.
Anyway, this particular recording has our historic engagement. That's right, I proposed to Melissa directly after curtain call, right on stage in front of the audience, my friends, and some of Melissa's family. Needless to say, she said yes, and the rest is history.....
Watching this moment after all these years, and after the birth od our son William, makes it that more special. So, if you happen to drop by, I'd be more than willing to play it for you!
Melissa, I love you so much! You have made my life more than I thought it could ever be. You gave me a precious wonderful son, and you fill every moment of my life with love and compassion. You are truly an amazing woman!!
