That person would be me. Since I am sick and tired of writing this story over and over and over again. Per request of Dave I decided to go with a blog of all the details.
8am - Wake up
840am- Left for airport
1050am- Airplane takes off for NYC
215pm- Airplane lands in NYC
2:20pm- Got on public bus
2:55pm - got off the bus at 116th st and broadway
Then I took this route for the next 2 hours plus

5:13pm - Ate pizza at Pizza 33
I then wandered some more.
I ended up going to Bryant Park upon leaving this park i was approached by a college aged female who wanted to sell me something. It ended up that she wanted me to sponsor a child from Africa or something. While I wouldn't mind doing this, I wasn't going to do it for this girl.
Insult 1 from this girl - "you look like you are 15"
Insult 2 from this girl - "you look like an elf"
Someone needs to teach this girl how to sell because I think somewhere in the handbook it mentions you dont insult the customer. Oh well, she talked about world of warcraft a lot and thats why I looked like an elf.
6:35pm - ESPNzone at Times Square
This was a really good time. I met a bunch of good guys. One 33 divorced with a 7 year old and remarried a 48 year old. One a 28 year old who's first day of his new job was the next day and he was getting wasted. Later 2 guys from Australia came and explained their travels and other random chats. Anyways the bulls lost which sucked, but I did finally get a text from Leighan mentioning that she was home and she would give me a call soon that happened at 11:32pm
11:48pm - I arrive at leighans hotel and tell the guy at the desk what I am up to and ask if he could call Leighan and say she needs to come down and sign for a package. Leighan comes down and sees me and asks questions like "why are you here?" and "Why didn't you call me?" we end up going to her room and I give her a hug and then commence on my speech, get down on one knee and ask her if she will marry me. The reaction was quite amusing "NO YOU ARENT DOING THIS, THIS ISN'T HAPPENING" then a bunch of crying and hugging and then she finally said yes. We called a bunch of people and then ended up fallin asleep. Very tired and my feet killed. She said it was perfect and while I may have wanted to go out somewhere to do it, the hotel room just seemed to work well especially since Leighan was already in her PJ's. Anyways we are both very excited and that is the story. No wedding date yet since I have no job.
