We met on our very first day of classes at Virginia Tech in August 1995. It took us both five years to graduate, but when it was finally time to say goodbye to Virginia Tech, we were pretty much ready to start life together. After living together for two years, first in a one room apartment in Bethesda, and then in the house that we bought in Rockville, Josh finally proposed (March 23, 2002). We told our families on Passover and Easter later that week. Of course, we put everything off, and so after another 19 months, we were married on November 1, 2003, over eight years after the day we met.
