It struck me that I told all about the animals, but never spilled the story of how Marcus and I met. I was working at a pizza place and we had a new guy working there from a competing chain. I was sent on a delivery and was told I'd probably get a decent tip because the guy that ordered was a friend of the new guy. Well, I knock on the door and this gangly kid opens the door, still wearing the hat from the competing chain. I was like, "What kind of dork orders a pizza from a competing chain while still in uniform?" Well, a short while after, we get a new manager and who does it turn out to be? This dork kid I delivered to. I don't remember how long it was after that we started becoming friends, but he had a girlfriend at the time. After they broke up, we started hanging out more. I remember telling my mother at one point that he was the one. I wasn't sure of his feelings for me until his best friend told me that he liked me. I got tired of waiting for him to make the first move, so I did! We've been together 14 years now and have only had a couple of minor hiccups in the meantime.
