Eight Years Later

Eight Years Later

Arty EdmundEight Years ago today I went on my last first date. We found each other online, through Bust/Nerve magazine personals. I was living in New York City. He was visiting his parents in New Jersey. We met at the Gershiwn Hotel, took the train to Brookyn, ate Somalian food for dinner and saw Cody Chesnutt and Bobby “Blue” Bland in concert. As first dates go, it was a shot out of the park.

We were living together within 8 months, engaged the next January and married in July 2004.

Happy Anniversary Edmund. It was the Best. First. Date. Ever.
