We met. And from that point on, hours became even happier.
I guess I can elaborate a little, can't I. It all started at my work event. Jess was crashing it with her lovely friend Cait (who happened to be my co-worker). I looked over at her, tilted my head, and to my surprise and embarrassment, she saw me and tilted her head, too. After a few not-so-subtle hints and some Facebook stalking, we managed to set up a date. I snook in a matinée showing of John Wick 2 prior to our date (a good omen), and through the graces of Keanu, I managed to make a good enough impression that Jess wanted to continue hanging out.
It didn't take long for us to realize that we wanted to live together. And once we moved in together, it took even less time for us to realize that we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together.
It's been a fun and beautiful road, filled with friends, family, a small brown puppy, and love ever since.
Needless to say we don't want the road to end, so we're just going to keep driving together.
