Re: Proposal Ideas???
Buy a baby sand boa, put the ring on the snake and give it to her in a small critter carrier cage with a note on the side asking for her hand. That's original!

Re: Proposal Ideas???
Go buy a fairly inexpensive piece of jewelry....like a $50 necklace or some crap. Do the Olive Garden thing, act all nervous, make a big deal out of it. She'll be expecting you to propose, women aren't stupid. Give her the diversion piece at dinner, with the whole preemptive "I love you so much, blah, blah, blah" thing. Sure, she'll feel a little stupid for thinking it was the big moment, but she'll get over it when she gets home and finds a rose (fine, Mike, a snake!) on her pillow with the engagement ring. At that point, the expectation will be gone and she'll be truly surprised!

Put it on the rat and then bring the rat to her acting all worried and telling her to "check this thing on the rat". Then get down on one knee when she sees the ring. That way you'll lessen the amount of time the ring is in contact and with the rat and it'll be supervised so it won't have time to chew.

Re: Proposal Ideas???
I like the diversion thing by a previous poster....maybe you could 1. Take her to Olive garden. 2. Give her the line "i know weve been together for awhile, i wanna give you something special... 3.Slip her the "little box"(with a pair of cheap cz earrings in it) 4.Play it off, grinning, acting proud(while shes all disappointed inside) 5. When you get home, look in one of your snakes tubs and exclaim " oh jeez,it left a giant present! Honey, can you grab some paper towels and get that for me?" (Shell feel even worse) 6. Beforehand, have that particular snake's tub lined with blank newsprint with "will you marry me" written on it, and the ring in the tub under a hide .

Re: Proposal Ideas???
You could also get a new snake shipped to you, telling her you got something real special, and you want her to be there for the unboxing. Slip the ring in there, and retape the box before she sees. Then tell her you think its gonna be so awesome you cant stand it, and youd rather have her open the box instead. Shell think its a snake. Drop on one knee when she opens the box, and then take her out to Olive garden so you can start disussing future wedding ideas.(you know shell want to)

This is what I would do. You GOTTA crush her and get her all deflated before you actually pop the question.

So I know it's been awhile since I've posted here but guess what, I did it! And she said yes!!! I took her to dinner and a movie and acted all nervous the entire time (okay, maybe it wasn't an act) and when we got home I had two dozen roses on the table surrounded by candles and while she was distracted with that I got down on one knee and pulled the ring out and when she turned around I asked her to marry me and she said yes!!! I couldn't be happier. :-)
