27

Reader, it was on this day 27 years ago that we met. At about this time Ginnie was wrapping up at school and heading to the gym for step aerobics class. What a 90s thing to do.

Buds had abandoned his stale coffee at the concrete castle that was Wash U. Making dinner, putting on the suit, no expectations.

We meet in 4 hours in a cramped and warm St Louis apartment. A group of grad schoolers and friends. A few blind date pairings. And a couple to be.
