The story that started it all...

What a day.
What a day.

I think I am already in love with a boy I only met a few hours ago....

Let me tell you the story :)

My whole family is in Cedar City right now.
I am very upset because I wish I was with them, but no.
I have work.
Work was Awful today.
Absolutely horrid.
I couldn't stop bawling when I drove home.
On top of all the normal, usual behaviors,
Bob, the new nasty supervisor, had to find someone to stay for a pm shift.
I have been working double shifts all week.  I was not going to spend 7 am to 10 pm at that place.
No way.
I was already way overtime, I had to play the piano in relief society, I was going to have dinner with my aunt, and then end the night at the majors.  No,no time for more work.
But he insisted and I cracked.
only a little though... I said I could work until 5.
So I was grumpy.
Instead of going home and showering I went to my aunts house because I was already late..
She listened to all my grumbling and after a lovely dinner and movie, I journeyed over to the Major's home.

For weeks they had been telling me how they wanted to set me up with this wonderful guy named Erik Kolste.
I said that I was down to go on a date with him if they set it up,
and of course they wanted to invite him over so I could meet him.
Right then.
I did not want to meet someone new because I was gross, grumpy, and not in the mood.
But of course, Joe the Major's adopted brother from China had to call Erik up right then and tell him to come over.
Oh great.
I was strumming away on a guitar and talking when I hear the front door open.
I got butterflies in my stomach and then I saw him and heard him say,

"You must be Marina"

"And you must be Erik."

At that moment
sparks
flew.

I knew that this guy was special and something was different...
he played guitar for me some more and we talked for hours with the Majors.
This experience should have been extremely awkward.
but it wasn't.
I felt like I already knew this kid.
I felt like we were already best friends.

When I left 2 hours later than i was planning on,
Erik turned to me when we got outside and said,

"Well, Joe's already texted me your number and told me that I better ask you out."

So we decided thursday, when I get back from Cedar City!!!
I can hardly wait!

I never believed in love at first sight until now.
