COUNTDOWN - DAY 6

We're getting closer! Okay, let's start with the remember me (again) because, well, I think these are more fun! Today's remember when: Remember when we met? It was at a church dance which is the CHEESIEST (and most cliche) way of meeting. It's just so Mormon. Not that that's a bad thing, it just reminds me of the Singles Ward. You know the scene where they are at a dance and congratulating a couple who had just gotten engaged. The couple had also just met the week before at a dance or something along those lines. Anywhoo - I didn't want to go to the dance. At. All. They always sucked in Utah and weren't highly attended. But, Bethia (bless her sweet little heart) talked me into it and along we went. She was dating Donny at the time and mentioned that Donny's friends, were, well, goobers. Not really dating material. So when I met the bubs, I wasn't so interested in MEETING the bubs. In fact, at the dance we didn't say more than two words to each other and they were "hi" and maybe "how's it going?" It wasn't until after the dance that we really talked. Of course, according to the bubs, it was how the game worked. Take stock of the girls who are there and then decide who you really want to talk to later at Mel's. I guess I was the lucky girl that night (although I didn't find all this out until later). But, we went out the next night (yep, he's a quick mover ladies) and the rest, as they say, is history. When people ask how we met I usually am a little embarrassed to admit it was at a church dance. The bubs on the other hand just tells people we met on the mission (as he served in Ogden) and we had an illicit affair. Right.

Okay, my number six why I love you: You are such a hard worker. I know your job frustrates you. Well, maybe not the job so much as the people. But I do appreciate how you work hard and time to get overtime as much as possible. And I really appreciate how with the goals we have in mind over the next little while, that overtime will make them more attainable. Thanks babe, you're the bestest!
