We met at Lamberti's restaurant on May 23, 2008. Well, we didn't actually "meet" that day - I walked him to his table and left a good impression. He came back one week later to formally introduce himself. And although I wasn't quite into his ego, I was definitely interested in his extra Pearl Jam ticket. Over the next few weeks, he lost my number, and I forgot his name. But we ended up at the Pearl Jam concert, together. It was essentially our first date. We talked for hours as we listened to one of our favorite bands. Everything clicked - it felt like we had been friends for years. Soon we were inseparable, and the rest is history. Sixteen years, two kids, and a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs later, we're still best friends who love each other more every day.
