How We Met

12.8.17

According to Anna: On a rare snow day in Alabama, my holiday party was cancelled. Right after I settled in for a cozy night at home, my friends showed up outside of my apartment and demanded I join them for a drink at Carrigan’s. I didn’t know it yet, but these same friends just finished dinner with Warner. After arriving at Carrigan’s, my friends told me that Warner would be joining. I remember they said - you’ll like Warner; he’s so funny! Warner arrived, but, initially was the opposite of funny...he wouldn’t even look at me. He talked to everyone at the table except me. Then, randomly, and quite abruptly (or smoothly depending who you ask) he turned to me, extended his hand and said, “Warner Hornsby, pleased to meet ya.” According to Warner: It didn’t take long for me to notice Anna when I walked into Carrigan’s that night. That is to say, I noticed the beautiful blonde girl at the table with all my friends immediately. As I went up to the bar to get a drink, all I could think about was how to impress that girl. I decided, having taken the first few sips of my fresh drink, that I had to “play it cool.” So, when I sat down at the table, I made a conscience decision to speak to everybody else first. Some call this the neg game. All I know is, it was very hard not to speak to her. Finally, after what felt like hours (but was likely more along the lines of 15 seconds), I turned and introduced myself. She told me her name was Anna, and the rest is history.

For all the days along the way
