How We Met

Friday, February 26, 1999

We had our first meeting at Bayshore Shopping Center. He was wearing a brown/grey turtleneck and black Levis with black sneakers and a blue ball cap from a 1997 golf tournament. He also had on a brown leather jacket and he wears glasses. I was wearing my black spandex pants, my purple oversized sweatshirt and my dark blue winter jacket and black shoes. We met, started chatting and then we decided to get something to eat at the "Moxie's Restaurant" there. He had a rootbeer like me and we were already chatting so much the waitress had to come back a second time to take our order because we hadn't chosen what we wanted yet. He ordered chicken fajitas, I think. Something that had chicken on a sizzle plate and tortilla wraps on the side. I had chicken Quesidillas. Yummy.

He asked somewhere through the meal, "I hope you'll allow me to pay for your meal" (or "buy your dinner" or something like that.) I accepted. We talked non-stop and were very comfortable together right away. At the end of the meal, I somehow suggested I could make cookies in a half hour. He didn't believe me so we went back to my place where I proved I could. He was in love at first bite. The look on his face was a look of being in heaven. He jokingly asked me to marry him right then! It was really cute.

So, that was how we met. Read "Fell in Love" to get more of the story!
