What You Do: I work in Library Technical Services
What SO Does: Car seat prototyping and testing (the seats that are in cars, not car seats for babies)
State of Relationship: Dating
How Long You've Been Together: 6 years (7 in June)
How You Met: Falling down in the hall.
Full story: We lived in the same dorm our freshman year of college. I had just met some of his roommates and a group of us were hanging out in the hall. We all went to head into their dorm. We were the last two people in the hall. He had been leaning against the wall, with one leg bent, and had his finger stuck through the loop on the back of the shoe (I hope that makes sense). Well, he went to put his foot down, but his hand was stuck and he fell. We shared an awkward moment of silence and then I laughed, hard. He was my best friend that year and we started dating a year later.
Wedding Date (if you're engaged/married): n/a*
Real Babies: none + no plans to ever have kids
Adorable pets: 2 kitty cats, Mitten and Mouse
Loves: Running, baking fancy desserts, girly things (makeup + nail polish), atv-ing, snowmobiling, books

I've Been On TK Since: I started lurking ages ago but created a new account today
How You Came to Be On TK: checking stuff out during my sister's wedding + being a bit BSC. Lurking taught me to enjoy my relationship in its present state instead of focusing on the future. I'm so happy I lurked!
How I like my potatoes: baked or mashed
Favorite book/author: Harry Potter! I mostly read fiction, non fiction usually bores me. Within fiction, I mostly read fantasy.
Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself: I'm a vegetarian.
Well, I guess that is me. Any questions?
*about the wedding date: I had to enter a wedding date when I signed up and it won't let me remove the date (I just used my b-day + the furthest away year allowed). Is there a way to remove this?
