10 Years
January 23rd, 2010 ryan
After a quick check with my calendar, it seems that Sarah and I met each other for the first time 10 years ago on this very day. We were having lunch at Tom’s Barbecue (now out of business) to celebrate the birthday of a mutual friend. I can’t remember if it was intentional on my part, or if it just happened, but we ended up sitting across from each other at the long table of people, so having a conversation with Sarah was pretty convenient. When Sarah talks about that day, she always mentions how every time she looked at me, I was looking at her and had a huge smile on my face. Her memory is probably pretty accurate. I remember thinking something along the lines of “Wow, this girl is really cute”, and I recall the impression that the more Sarah told me about herself, the more I liked her. I can’t imagine what the past 10 years would have looked like if we hadn’t met that day, and I’m looking forward to knowing Sarah another 10 years.

Awww. My husband and I met under similar circumstances. Unfortunately, I was infatuated with another guy at the lunch table and don’t remember Mike being there. Even though Mike says he sat across from me and talked with me during the lunch.

Hey brother,
I’m sorry that I missed calling you while in the states. I remember when Tom’s closed down, but I think your memories there are more cherishable. Actually, I think I ate their twice. I miss you guys. Let’s connect soon.
Grace and peace,
Todd Hall
