first impressions

Will and I like to laugh about the first night we met...it was 6 years ago sometime this week (we just need to remember one precise anniversary now, and there's a lot of photographic evidence of that one), and involved our snowy campus, friends, and peppermint sticks in hot chocolate. Most memorable, however, was how quickly we felt at ease with each other. I had to remind myself to go talk to other people (which wasn't easy, since he then came up and interrupted those conversations...which I didn't exactly mind). 

It was as if we already knew each other, and liked each other for all that we knew. And that was an intimacy from which we've never recovered.
