"We've been together a long time; we've been together almost nine years. So, a lot of the shimmer and shine has faded and we're just living every damn day as best we can," Bryant, 29, quipped. 

"We've seen each other through a lot. Like, he used to work as a full-blown garbage man — not a joke, just a garbage man. I used to sweep up hair in a barber shop. I mean, we've, like, been through it."

O'Malley, who used to be a writer for Late Night, popped the question at their NYC home. Bryant was coming back from SNL rehearsals and thought the entire set-up was a joke.

"I had my purse and our mail and all these boxes, and I walked to our door and our dog had a bow tie on. I was like, 'My dog doesn't wear a bow tie! Where is he going tonight?' Basically, the second I shut the door, a man — who I discovered was Conner — frantically came around the corner and was just like, 'Will you marry me?!' No box. No 'I love you.' 

Just a man in full terror standing very far from a dog in a bow tie, just holding a loose ring going, 

'Will you marry me?!'" Bryant recalled. "I was like, 'What?!' I truly couldn't comprehend what was happening, and I kept saying, 'Is this a joke? Are you doing a joke?' And then I said, 'Of course I'll marry you. I love you.' And it was really nice."
