If people know me, they know that I am terrified of spiders! THIS is why this story happens to be so sweet :o) Lance and I met on Match.com on June 8th, 2011. We both created our accounts that day, when Lance emailed me. I thought he was handsome but noticed the facial hair off the bat... not my thing at the time. Nonetheless, I responded to the email and that set fire to a chain of very long messages! I loved talking to him because our messages were so thoughtful and were always very interesting. At one point, I emailed him back and somehow, it didn't go through. I'd sit in the hospital cafeteria on breaks, staring at my phone waiting for a reply!!! Nothing. FINALLY, after over a week, he sends me a message saying he is going to end his account and to text message him if I still want to talk to him. THANK GOODNESS!!! I messaged him on my phone and we cleared up the confusion. Texts turned to phone calls which then progressed into meeting for the first time on July 3rd! He came to my home and I remember telling him that he'd have to hurry on in because there are spiders outside above the door and I'm terrified that they'll come in! Well, He calls to let me know that he's there and I come down the stairs to what soungs like banging...?!?! I look out the peephole to see Lance smashing the spiders with his waterbottle. I open the door and I'm sure he could see my confusion when he said "I squashed them for you so you didn't feel obligated to let me in, if you didn't want to." Instant chemistry! He took me to Jamba Juice (after have driven 45 minutes one way to me!) and that is now our thing :o) I remember it being cloudy out and us both commenting that we like thunderstorms. I wished it would storm so he would have to stay longer. We watched a movie and he played with Toby and Trooper (our kitties!). We were pretty comical because we tried everything to stay awake but finally had say goodnight- at 6AM!!!
