Jasmine


We debated on getting a dog but we are both too busy for one. I could never get home to take it potty during the day and Andrew would have a hard time to. So we decied to get a cat. I have never liked cats ver much but mine is pretty much the most adorrable thing you have seen, and she is my baby. She sleeps in my arms just like a baby and when I get home from work she follows me around and cries until I finnally pick her up. She will cuddle and purr until Andrew comes home and then it is play time so she is in fighting mode and watch out she can bite pretty hard.

How we met


Andrew and I met the summer of 2007 when I started working at the plasma center. I thought he looked like a monkey with his uncontrollable long hair and he thought i was pretty much the hottest girl he would ever meet. We worked together for almost 6 months before he had the nerve to ask me out. Of course he did it by sending me a text message. The funny thing was that the same day he sent me a text message earlier that day at work one of my coworkers Katrina was saying how she wanted to us too up. Basically Andrew would be going out on a blind date not knowing it was me but I of course new. So she went to talk to him about it and told him that she had a friend that he needed to go out on a date with but wouldn't tell him who. He agreed and then that night when he got off work was sitting around bored and without knowing his blind date the next weekend was me sent me a text message to come over and watch a movie. Now from my perspective I recieved this text message and it didn't tell me who it was from replied who is this. I then recieved a text saying guess. So I'm thinking about everything that Katrina did earlier today and figured that she had given into him and told him his blind date was with me. So I text back Andrew. Now Andrew was totally shocked that I guessed him out of no where because Katrina had told him absoulutley nothing. So we got together and watched a movie at about 11:30 that night. The next day I was telling Katrina that he had text me and we got together and watched a movie. She still insisted that she hadn't told Andrew that his blind date was me. Well after that night Andrew and I watched a movie we pretty much spent every night after work together. Before I blind date that he still didn't know was with me I spilt the beans and told him Katrina was planning to set me up. Then it became a game between the two of us to see who could keep it a secret from the co workers the longest since we really weren't suppose to be dating and working together. Well I had told Katrina about the day we watched a movie together and nothing else so she thought it ended there. Two weeks later when our blind date came up we were all suppose to show up at chiles. When we got our tables Katrina (still not knowing that we were dating) insisted on us sitting together. So we did but Andrew got up to go to the bathroom and more friends came so we ended up sitting across the table from each other. This is where Andrew started losing the game. He winked at me across the table when he thought no one was looking but Katrina saw. Of course she found out after that and the secret got harder to keep after that. We ended up stuck in one of our coworkers driveway and yet another one found out. Then we went to the movies and ran into two other coworkers. Slowly the secret became harder and harder to keep. I did so good with the secret and ended up telling only one coworker. I actually had fun with it because everyone was suspecting things so at work I would sit there and play mind games with them. It was quite amusing. Then there is Andrew and his terrible ability to keep a secret told everyone else slowly. He told about every single coworker and then would tell them but don't tell anyone. But everyone knew cause he told them all. As things got more serious I decided to look for another job. I told Andrew (who was so persistant about getting married) that if I got a new job we could get married. The next week I got offered a job the for the Red Cross and we were married September 20, 2008.
