Love is in the air, right?
No? More like snow is in the air and on the ground and OMG SOMEBODY BETTER SHOVEL THAT SOON?
I mean, not for me… in Texas. It’s a glorious 60 something here and the sun is shining. Don’t hate. You’ll have your weather envy revenge on me the months of June through September… possibly October.
What I’m saying is LOOK, PHONES! Distraction! Shiny!
Let’s pretend love really is in the air. And that love could win you not just one, but TWO new Windows phones. Red ones! On Valentines Day!
You love me so hard right now, don’t you?
I’ve already told you the story of how Scott and I met, so if you want the full version, check it out here. The short story? I stalked him the first half of my sophomore year of college (after discovering him at my local grocery store), then he finally wound up at one of the tables I was waiting at a sports bar. We talked all night, he asked for my number, and the rest is history. That was 12 years ago as of this January 31st. TWELVE YEARS.
Stalking pays off!
The Windows phone team wants to celebrate love by giving you a chance to share your “how we met” story on Facebook. I made mine earlier today and it was, frankly, adorable. Though I think it will be even cooler for those of you who actually met your significant other when you both had Facebook accounts… or if you met ON Facebook. It will probably make you squee. (NOTE! It doesn’t have to be a story of how you met a love interest. It can be a friend!)
Give it a whirl here with the Windows How We Met app!
All you have to do is comment with a link to your How We Met story, and you’ll be entered to win the TWO Windows phones I’m giving away on Valentines Day- one for you and one for someone you love… or just like, a lot. I get it. Commitment can be scary.
Here are all the details:
1. Winner will receive 2 red Windows phones- 1 8x by HTC and one Nokia Lumia 920
2. Â These phones work with US phone providers and contest is open to US readers
3. Â Entries close at 11:59 p.m. CST February 13th
4. The winner will be announced on this blog post and contacted on February 14th
5. Obviously, you’ll need a Facebook account to participate in this
Use the instructions in the Rafflecopter widget below to enter. You MUST use the widget. Don’t just comment, or you won’t be counted.Â

I think the app is SO cool, but it kept telling me to choose a different friend-ironically I had to change FB pages because of an ex, things are moving slow with someone new -I really hope I can enter just because some of us haven’t met anyone special on our FB page.

Thirty-eight years and a week ago Terry and I met on a blind date – on February 1, 1975. After 35 years of marriage I remain convinced that my 17 year old self was a genius to have said yes to that date. 🙂
