Saturday Night Genealogy Fun

For this week's mission (should you decide to accept it), answer the question:

1)  It's story time - tell us how you met your spouse or significant other.  If you don't have one, tell us about how your parents met each other.

It's the spring of 1971 and I'm a freshman at Kansas State Teachers College in Emporia. I've just started my new job as an assistant in the chemistry department. I worked two afternoons a week - Tuesdays and Thursday - in the storeroom. It was my job to check out and then check in glassware, thermometers and other supplies to the chemistry students. Most of my 'customers' were in Chemistry I or II students. Since dress codes for my sorority were still enforce, I was not only one of the few females working in the department, but I was the only one in a skirt.
