I met my DH on talk like a pirate day, 2007. I think he fell for my wench-like arrrrr'ing.

Yep - thinking ahead necessary in the world of IT

Plus it's coincidentally my wedding anniversary and as my evil twin got all of the date-memory genes it's so handy to google when I forget the date I'm making those important plans...

I'll be halfway to the New World by then.
