How you met: I was working in NYC at the flagship store of his current company (Burton Snowboards). He came to NYC with some co-workers to check out the store and saw me folding clothing. He claims that I was the prettiest girl he's ever seen in NYC and wanted to ask me out on a date. He got shy and figured I would be creeped out by some random dude asking me out so he left. About 4 months later I got a job at their main office and moved to Vermont. I ended up working with one of his best friends who recognized me. His friend told him that I had moved up here and was now working there. We had iTunes libraries that you can share with the rest of the 300+ employees on our network. So he had connected to mine and then sent me an email about my favorite band (Denali). I then asked my co-worker what he looked like and who he was. So this SUPER hot guy comes walking into our department to talk to my co-worker. When he left I was like "Who was that?!" hoping it was really his friend and he said "Yaaa...that's Chip". And I was completely giddy!! We talked over email and realized we had similar taste in music. He then called me that Friday night as I was in my apartment with black hair dye and wet nail polish. He asked to come downtown to hang out and I was hesitant but I got all nice looking and met up with him. And it's history from there on...
