At the popular decade. Which is kind of nice to use right now, because ten years ago was before a major life milestone.

At this time ten years ago, I believe I was asleep. I'd been to the Minn-StF New Year's Eve Party at Dreampark the night before, I was headed for Larry Sanderson's Hair-of-the-Dog Party that afternoon. daedala was renting my spare room ( Read more... )

I think you met Irene earlier than ten years ago. We were both still living with Carol, and you moved out first. I've lived here for 12 years.

Nope. The first time we laid eyes on each other was at a Minn-StF Meeting at my house on 1 April 2000 (see this Einblatt). Our official first date was April 5th, and we got married exactly six months after our first date, on October 5th.

I just asked the Hennepin County database, since I keep forgetting - I bought my house in March 1997.

When I bought it, it was spec'ed to have an extra bedroom that I had no immediate plans for - I needed three bedrooms to get the minimum public space I wanted. So, the third bedroom got allocated for rental, or crash space for fen coming through, or to give to my SO as her space if such a person ever came along.

IIRC, daedala had moved in the winter of 1999-2000, and moved out sometime between 1 April and 1 June 2000.

Okay. I guess I conflate you buying the house with meeting Irene, since they happened relatively close in time but far enough away in distance that I wasn't paying attention to the timeline.

You two have such a great "meeting" story! I would agree that it is one of the really good things about a somewhat sorry decade.
