Wow with everything going on I totally forgot to post about the importance of yesterday! October 20, 2005 is the day that Tom and I met in person for the very first time...
We had actually met on Myspace first when I was bored one night and decided to find people that I may know in the Abilene area. When I did the search I didn't really find anyone familiar, but I did see one profile that caught my eye. Back then I had several of those silly surveys that says your love style, personality, etc. on my profile and funny thing is that this person had the exact same surveys with the exact same results. I'm easily amused (as many of my close friends know; it doesn't take much to make me happy) so I sent this person a quick little message complimenting his profile.
This person happened to be my future hubby, although I didn't know it at the time. I had no intentions of dating anyone because my divorce from my ex was final only a couple months earlier and I was in the process of joining the Air Force. I never thought that I would get a response back but sure enough the next day I get a message from him asking if I used Yahoo Messenger. I figured that a little harmless conversation couldn't hurt anyone so we started chatting on messenger.
Soon that led to phone conversations, then finally we got to discussing where we lived and found out we were only a block apart! The evening of October 20th at around 10:30pm we were talking and finally he said that it would be easier if we just met in person and talked so being the risk taker that I am, I agreed and met him at his house. We ended up sitting on his front porch talking for a couple of hours about anything and everything. We didn't go inside because he was embarrassed about how dirty his house was at the time because he was a single dad of three girls. Once it started getting late I decided I better head home because we both had to work the next day and before I left he kissed me. We decided to meet again the next day and have been inseparable ever since :-)
