Once upon a time there was a bar, a girl and a boy. On St. Patricks Day 2007 the three came together in a cosmic event that included green beer. The boy wanted to talk to the girl, so he said "hey Irish girl, I like your shirt". That was sadly one of the worst pick up lines she had ever heard. Over the next two months the boy couldn't help but notice her every time he saw her. Since there was no green beer and corney T-shirts, the boy decided to ask the girl to play a game of pool. Catching glances between shots from one another and sharing conversation, the girl began to fall for the boy. When the boy asked the girl out it seemed his luck had changed. For the next several months the two shared connections and romantic evenings.
Soon the girl and boy decided to begin building their lives together. Their careers have now taken them to Atlanta, Georgia where they have been living happily together.
