I walked into a video store looking for a copy of City of Lost Children. As I would find out later, the movie was stolen. I was so frustrated that it was gone I walked up to the employee and asked what had happened to it. When he relayed the fact it had been stolen, I sighed. He then offered to run to his apartment and pick up HIS copy of the movie for me to watch, but there was a catch. I had to give him my phone number and go out for a beer with him. I agreed because it couldn't have possibly been as bad as the last date I had been on where the guy ate all my French Fries.

That was the last date I ever went on, it was with my husband.

Do you two watch the movie every year? Or sometimes on that anniversary?

That's such a sweet story.

OMG that's so sweet I am all teary eyed now. That is such a lovely story and to think a thief kind of sent you two on your path to being husband and wife. I guess the man upstairs really does work in mysterious ways.

We were half tempted to find out who took the movie and invite them to our wedding!
