"Do You Remember Meeeeeeeeeeme"

[dr4b]

Hi, I answered in zqfmbg and megami's journals so in theory I have to post this here. And in turn if you answer, like every other ANSI Standard Meme, you post it in yours. Etc.

"Add a comment to this journal telling me what you remember about first meeting me (online most certainly counts; if you have a choice between online and in person, I'll request the most amusing :-) I'll respond to each comment with my memories of you."

I was stepping out of my AA meeting just after telling them that I was back on the hooch after 30 sober days and they couldn't stop me. You were just leaving your weekly "Save the Galapagos Tortoise" meeting that happened to be next door. We collided and I dropped my five bottles of raspberry schnopps while you dropped your sculpture of Alex Trebek made out of 9,648 matchsticks. We both looked at the swirling mixture of schnop-sticks and laughed and laughed and laughed. We've been best of friends ever since.

Hmm, except for that last statement, I was completely off. Actually, I think it was back in 95 in the Wean Cluster. You had a great big smile on your face and cheerful glint in your eye. We've been best of friends ever since.

Heh, I definitely remember the summer of 95 hanging out with you... sometimes I'd work all night at MMP and you'd come hang out to scan things and we'd go to Eat'n'Park in the morning. Or we'd play cards, or see movies in the park, or whatever else. Do you remember a game of 2-3-5 in your AEPi room with Pete Wilcox and a 5-pound box of Twizzlers, that we played all evening? And of course the infamous game of Psychiatrist... poor Dave, ask me if I'm a truck :) I remember playing a TON of Worms in your room in the summer of 96 too.... and roadtripping to Weird Al with you and Kim and Little John. And I got to meet Al and Bermuda... and I think that was your first time meeting Al too! And he was all like "HI HAPPY!" and you jumped back a mile.

But I honestly don't remember how I met you the first time. You'd come back from taking a year off and showed up at some APhiO thing, maybe Casino Party? and it was like "yay! that's Happy!" and I was like, "okay! hi!" But you're right, we might have finally first really talked in the cluster or something. I could believe it, at least :)

wow, this is fun to write these between compiles.
