The story of how I met and fell in love with my wife, Wendy, is one that most people seem to get a kick out of (including me and my wife). Depending on the amount of detail provided, it's a story that can be told in 5 minutes or 2 hours. We've told it both ways many times over the years, but I have a number of friends who have never heard the story. IMO, the super-extended version is the one that really does it justice and could probably be turned into a romantic comedy screenplay with some minor tweaking.
In honor of the ten year anniversary of our meeting (Friday, January 21, 2000) I've decided to post the story here in installments in order to preserve the details that are beginning to escape my ever-worsening memory, and to satisfy the curiosity of those friends who have asked about how we met, so keep an eye on this space over the coming days.
