There's no escaping the 1980's!
In 2015, Christmas Eve traveled three decades into the past, when my ex-fiancé Erica unexpectedly became the topic of conversation.
With my whole extended family gathered around, any hopes of evasion withered away when granddaughter Gwen dropped a literal time bomb in the room. To make matters worse, my wife Olivia had her own revelations of my dubious past to share.
I did not consider my proposal to Erica very romantic, but urged on by curious relatives, I told the unusual tale.
Mundane Proposal features a fun family gathering, a comparison of two loves, and a 1985 flashback to my heartwarming engagement day with Erica.
