Awww ... a sweet memory?
What about the time David and I had our first date?!
It all started with us meeting at the Utah State @ Utah football game in 2001. We were sitting next to each other because we were both from the Logan newspapers (him the Herald Journal and me the Statesman) and we started talking about where we were from. We figured out that his dad and my mom both went to the same high school in San Diego. Small world!
The following Monday I received an e-mail at the newspaper from David about how if I ever needed any help to let him know because he had just graduated and was familiar with the college newspaper scene. I thought he was cute and looked like Will from Big Brother so I was super excited he e-mailed me (even if it was under the pretense of work).
We e-mailed each other back and forth for a couple of weeks and eventually I asked him if he wanted to "hand" out sometime. It was suppose to be "hang" but I guess in my quickness to type and send me e-mail I messed up! He of course knew what I meant, but decided to write back and tease me. He ended up planning a date for us on Sept 15, 2001 -- only a few days after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. I remember thinking "should we still go out?!" But really our lives couldn't stop because of what happened and I'm glad they didn't.
We had a great dinner at Chili's and then we went back to his place and just hung out looking at photos and talking.
P.S. -- Here is a photo of Dr. Will Kirby from Big Brother. You be the judge! :)
