Well......it's really weird.....
I was separated from my ex-husband in December of 2002....and had just got out on my own, I was sitting at a girlfriend's before we went to Police Office, and Chris who is my BF, and my everything, was fixing her roommate's computer, I wasn't interested in guys at that point in time, and all I remembered were his socks....he had on a mismatched pair, one white and one black, or as he likes to say now, My Good Foot and my Evil foot.....
I bumped into him again over a year later, at the carshow that happens annually in the town I was living in at the time, he stopped by with his sister to borrow a garbage can to put a battery package in for the batteries in his digital camera. I thought his sister was his girlfriend, and lost interest, put him out of my mind and carried on with my job.
I bumped into him again in October of 2003, I was working at the local pub as a DJ's assistant....(Fridays was DJ night, and Saturdays was Karaoke), he was out playing pool with his dad and friend. Since things were pretty slow, he stopped and talked with me, bought me a drink, and we spent the whole night talking each other's ear off.....at this time, the girls in the pub were running a betting pool on whether or not he and I would get together. Anyway, he walked me home that night, ever the gentleman....again I wrote him off, sure that I had scared him off....
The next night I was hosting a show in another town, doing my job, when toward the end of my show, he walked through the doors.....which completely blew me away. Anyway, he asked me if he could drive me home, I talked to my bosses, one of which was freaking out, and they were fine with it.
Chris and I drove around all night....and talked.....then he tried to ask me out, and was so scared that I would say no, that he didn't quite ask, things just kinda happened......
He had originally planned to move to Edmonton, after working for a month doing Seismic, and I thought that I had lost my chance at happiness.......and I worried about it for quite sometime.
Three days before he left for up north, he asked me to move to Edmonton with him, and we've been together and inseparable ever since.......and we're going on our 2nd year in October.
