This punk stealing the shot has become the person whom I enjoy the most and is now my husband. Happy anniversary babe! Special kudos go out to my editor, Jon, for allowing me to write a story about beer that resulted in our meeting. Also, I’m hopeful Dana has forgiven me for being the new girl who got to drink beer and meet a cute boy while working. </p>http://quarterlifequalms.tumblr.com/post/42493977882http://quarterlifequalms.tumblr.com/post/42493977882Thu, 07 Feb 2013 00:12:29 -0800BeerAnniversaryChris7 yearsDay we metLittle thingsChurch has never been my thing.
