Debbie and I met around Thanksgiving of 2002. We were introduced by a mutual friend, Porcia Havird. Our first evening consisted of sitting at the Skyline, listening to a lousy band, with me telling blond jokes, and Debbie laughing until she was crying. It was obvious that there was electricity of the highest voltage all around us. It was one of those times when you look into someone's eyes, and see the rest of your life there. We laughed and talked until they closed the club and ran us out. So, Waffle House, here we come. Naturally, Porcia went with us. So we jabbered and laughed all the way through Waffle House, and the three of us went to Porcia's house so we could talk some more. It was so funny. I had not laughed nor had so much fun that could ever remember before. Ever. Debbie was SO beautiful!! Her eyes were so beautiful. Her smile was totally intoxicating. And her touch,~~ Z - A - P ~~!!!, did me in. I was lost and gone forever from the moment we met. Like Kenny says in mine and Debbie's song, "She had me from Hello.". We wound up yakking until after 5:00 in the morning. I was so worn out, I fell asleep on Porcia's couch as Debbie was leaving in the early dawn. What a perfect night! What a glorious day ahead! What a wonderful time to be alive!
