Met online, April 1999.
I was working in the East Bay Area, she was back in Indiana.
Sent me an AIM (on AOL at the time - loved that dial-up tone.....) as she was looking to chat with folk with Scotland/UK in their profile. Her sister was in the USAF back in England so she was mulling a trip.
1st face-to-face was in July 1999 for Lilith Fair in SF.
Married in May 2000.

I pulled her in the student union bar of St Mary's in Twickenham where she was doing a year in the U.K. Don't remember the exact date, would have been November 1999. Apparently my first words to her when we went outside (which she remembers and I don't) were "bloody hell, you're a yank". Despite my charming first drunken words, we
Got married 12 years later.
