We kept seeing each other around town, at math parties, and Target. We were the same age, had daughters, had similar nerdy interests, both destined to be single forever.. so our daughters all hung out while we went out to eat, and that instantly became a regular thing. Sometimes we all went out together! Next thing you know, we're submitting a math paper together, and merging our families into this big old house with Mom. The only ones who aren't thrilled are our two cats.
