10 years ago, 1995

Living in my own apartment off of Grafton Street in Worcester.
Dated
devlin0906 for a few months.
Met
silvara77 online after the breakup
Had a rather interesting New Year's -- went to a friend's house in Westford, gathering moved to the Amherst/Northampton area, went to some weird nightclub whose name I cannot remember, went to a party where I knew only a handful of people in a flat that seemed way too small for the amount of people and managed to have my ankle trod on by some guy in heavy boots, spent the night at another friend's house and then went back home.

Living with
silvara77.
I believe we moved into our new flat on Lincoln Street that year.
Was doing the unemployed/contractor thing for work, some of which involved doing service calls for Dell.
Proposed to
silvara77 at a gaming convention in Vermont, using the immortal romantic words, "So, you wanna?"
Tracker dies out on me. Engine repairs not feasible. Dad gives me his old Sentra.
2 years ago, 2003
Still doing the contractor thing.
Married
silvara77 on 11 October, in Manassas VA. Some of you on here will remember either the fun down there and/or the renewal up here.
Started one of the best contracting jobs ever -- five minute commute into downtown Worcester, worked 12pm-8pm, left pretty much on my own, had a lot of spare time on my hands there, got excellent reviews and feedback from my supervisor.
1 year ago, 2004
The above job ended in early January.
Started working at Gentex as a contractor the Monday after Super Bowl Sunday. That job lasted into August.
Right after that ended, we discovered that
silvara77 was preggers!
Started working at Burk Technology in Customer Support on 1 December.
