Let's see - we worked for the same company, went to the same church and went to the same college.
I'm pretty sure she was stalking me. |

I went to a college reunion of sorts and at a party, the girlfriend of a buddy of mine discovered that I lived in the same area as one of her sorority sisters. This girl decided it was necessary after the fact to reach out and suggest that we meet. We did. 15 years and 3 kids later... it's all good.

Saw her in a crowd, was love at first sight, followed by the usual: stalking, a washcloth and a bottle of chloroform, handcuffs ...

We met at a party over at a friends house in Chicago. Truly, love at first sight. Which, at that time, was unusual for me, because I was REALLY into the one night stand gig.

Met wifey at a going away party for a friend of mine from college. She was wearing paper chaps and dancing around to ZZ Top. Life has been good since then.
