Minna,

How did I met my DH? Well, he is sound engineer on movie sets but on the weekends also works as a DJ at a few big clubs here in Montreal. One night, I was partying at this new club with about ten people, celebrating my best friend's birthday. I go up to the bar to order drinks and when I turn to my right, lightening stroke for both of us. For a few seconds we were the only two people in the room and just could not take our eyes off each other. It was really love at first sight! :) As the evening progressed, an old Depeche Mode sound came on and I just lost it (love Depeche Mode!) so having just ordered a round of shooters, I grabbed one and headed for the music booth to thank the DJ for such a wonderful music selection. Well, as I turn the corner, I realised the DJ was the guy who I had seen at the bar and could not take my eyes off. Needless to say, I spend the rest of evening in his booth and we've been together ever since! :)

(By the way, he claims he "sensed" I would go nuts over the song and that it would make me run into his arms...but...I think that's taking faith a little too far! *LOL*).

Here are a few pics of our wedding this summer : http://www.geocities.com/patita_fofinha/mariage.html

We had been living together for four years but decided to wed so we may start TTC.

This is my second cycle of TTC and after the last month's tears when AF came, I am trying to be cool this time around. I've had a few symptoms but since AF is only due later this week/weekend, I am trying NOT to test before that.

Tons of baby dust everyone's way.

Hi Patricia,

Here's my question:

Are you brazilian/portuguese by any chance?

I'm asking you because of your nickname "fofinha" which means cute in portuguese.

love,

Marcia

Nadine,

I have A LOT of favorite books since I am a real book worm. I own thousands of books and am always reading. I especially adore all the French and British classics (poetry or other) but here a few more modern books that I love:

Le parfum - Patrik Süskind

La dame aux camélias - Alexandre Dumas fils

Les amants de Pise - Joséphin Péladan

The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde

:)
