How did you guys meet again?
Wednesday, January 05, 2005
Over this vacation, it seems that everyone kept asking the same question: “So how did you and Slim meet again?”
As it is, it’s quite an innocuous little story dealing with friends of friends and needing another person to round out the group of 5, but we have more fun just making things up. So far we have told people the following stories:
1. We met in a chat room about Christian beliefs. We ended up arguing the same point against a bunch of other antagonistic people.
2. We met playing Final Fantasy XI online. He always played a female sorcerer and i played a paladin. We always were in same party. I would tank and he would heal me. That was so thoughtful and sweet that I couldn’t help but get to know him better. After all, i, like the masses of other players out there, wondered if he was really a girl or a guy. All those posts on gaming boards devoted to determining the gender of his character really had me curious. So that’s how i got sucked in.
3. He was learning to surf with Keith, but he ate it really bad on one wave, but i saved him. (This is obviously for those who *don’t* know me seeing as how large bodies of water scared me to death).
The other ones include being at E3 and meeting (he was there for his company and i was working for Tecmo as a booth babe...hehehehe yeah, right) and meeting through Click2Asia’s speed dating events. I’m running out of ideas. Anyone got other ideas that I can use to tell his friends about how we met?
He’s your long lost brother?
That friendly Wal-Mart greeter...?
