a fun little story

So. I have a story for all y'all.

So...almost two weeks ago on Halloween Eve, my family (that now lives in Virginia) was at the ward Halloween party. The very nice, young (single), Elder's Quorum President (who will hereto be known as Rescue Ranger) sat down next to my mother (who was high on sugar) and father and started up a nice conversation.

Well, come to find out, Rescue Ranger is from the northern Utah area. He works in VA where my family lives, but his family is here. He mentioned that he would be traveling to Utah in the coming weeks for the Thanksgiving holiday and my mom said that he should look me up. So he asks if I have a cell phone and if he could get my number. So my wonderful father gives him my number.

He then asks if they had a picture of me. Well, my parents don't just carry around pictures of their favorite, oldest daughter but they told him they would email him one. So they did, on November 2nd.

Well, yesterday, November 11, Rescue Ranger emailed my mom thanking her for the pictures and then emailed her again asking for my email address. He then sent me an email today and asked if we could get together sometime after he lands in Utah (which is Saturday). Imagine my surprise!!! Well, I emailed him back and thus begins my escapades with the Rescue Ranger. He's taking me to a star party on November 21st and we'll see what happens from there.

I'm actually kind of excited about this turn of events, and we'll see where it takes me. Not that I am looking for a new relationship immediately, I mean, I did just break up with SwingKid. BUT I am definitely open to meeting new people, going on dates, and seeing what is in store. :-) Oh the excitement that is my life!
