And the SDMB gets to sit back and score **Asimovian’s** talents on conflict resolution, too! 😃

You’re assuming this wasn’t some sort of clever test I came up with to see if she’d find it on her own.

_cough_

No worries. He checked with me, but wouldn’t go with my revised text of “jsgoddess and I met in Vegas and hit it off. The end.”

Yow – yeah, it was definitely discussed before I posted. Talk about a bad way to start off a relationship. 🙂

I am so happy for you both, glad you were together over a difficult time, glad you had some fun, glad you’ve found each other - whatever happens!

I’m always telling anyone who will listen that one of the greatest lessons of life is to be open. An open heart, though you’ve been hurt. An open mind even if you think you’re sure you ‘know’.

When they ask me why, [which often happens when you’re trying to convince someone who’s really been hammered by life], I always tell them the universe cannot serve you up any awesome unless you are willing to be open to it.

Y’all are an object lesson for the world!

Enjoy the awesome, who knows, maybe there’s more on it’s way!
