Re: The Well 69: ImmortalSix
I took a couple GIS courses. I used to work with GIS/maps guys and Ill tell ya they had the most fun of anyone in that office and got paid good. Also way cool your so happy with the married life. My question is how did you two meet?
Yeah, GIS has it's moments. I can think of one day I was in the basement at The Pentagon, and we had a hurricane coming in quick, and they needed maps of what areas what be affected and I was able to spit some out, no sweat, and the chief of my branch, the Major, was so pleased he nearly said "thank you" :laughing:
I met Mrs. ImmortalSix in 2001 in high school --- 11th grade --- she had just moved in from St. Louis, MO, and was the new girl. Our English teacher wanted to go around the classroom and have each student tell what book they'd read last. Well, she said "The Restaurant At The End of The Universe" by Douglas Adams, and so did I. That gave me my "in" to talk to her at lunch, and I asked her out the next day. We went out that Friday, and we dated for 2 years, until graduation.
We went our separate ways as we went to different colleges, she went to U. Dayton and I went to Virginia Tech, and we were apart for 2 years.
Second semester of sophomore year, she transferred back to school in VA --- in Richmond. She came up to visit Tech, and we saw each other again. We hit it off again and started it back up. We have been together since.
Next semester, she transferred to school up by me.
I put a ring on her finger a month after we graduated college.
Our first anniversary is in 3 weeks
