How I met my wife

I dont recall the entire day or anything, but I do remember that I had just gotten out of english class and it was lunch time. I walked down the halls of the old school to the lunch room to do the normal routine of the lunch line. I went and sat with my regular crowd of geeks and at that same time I was working on programming a game on my calculator. I had a friend by the name of Sheri that wanted to introduce me to her best friend (THIS IS THE CUE FOR RACHEL TO ENTER). When I first met her, I will have to tell you that she was very pretty. Her hair was dark and straight. I think she was wearing jeans and a white sweater that appeared very soft. After talking with them for a few minutes we parted and it was probably later that week that I started to see her in the halls. Still didnt really talk to her much but we said hi to each other as we passed. At lunch time every few days I would sit at the same table as them and socialize. It was almost 3-4 weeks later that I finally asked her to go to a dance with me. It was the valentines dance. It was about 1 week away (I think Feb 16, 2000). I was excited and had gone on a number of dances with some friends, but never really in an interest of my own.
I remember that night quite well as we danced. I will tell you that I was a dork (because thats what I am), but apparantly that is charming. I took her home and walked her to the front door. We gave each other a hug and then kinda akwardly separated.. but then I gave her a kiss. It was very quick as if it was stolen, but it was very pleasing. I went home as happy as a lark. The next day I was kinda unsure of how to act, but we started to see each other regularly and the rest is history.
