Have to take a moment to recognize a special day. 18 years ago, on this day, my friends helped set up a blind date for me. They thought we had so much in common that we would be perfect for each other. We met at a Starbucks, had a nice dinner at Pasta Luna, the Italian restaurant next door, and then stopped for a drink at the Capital Ale House.

That wonderful night was when I met Elizabeth – and little did I know how much my life would change for the better that evening. And as I sit here for the second weekend in a row watching several basketball games all day and blogging about them, I know that I am extremely lucky to have found such a wonderful woman to be my wife.

I am so blessed to have such great friends and family. Elizabeth – I’ve found all I’ve waited for, and I could not ask for more.
