You cannot escape your destiny...

Have you ever met someone and just knew instantly that they would CLICK with someone you know? Yeah.. me either. But here's what happened... in a galaxy far far away, sometime in 2012, my maid of Honor Dora was hanging out in Vegas with friends when she finally got to hang out with the infamous Jake Barcus. During this trip, she learned of his great love for all things Star Wars and comics and all she could think about was how this really nice guy was single and she just KNEW that he would hit it off with me. A couple of phone calls later between Dora and I, maybe a few pictures back and forth. I wasn't sure if I was ready. I told her I've got a really bad feeling about this. I've never been set up on a blind date and was a little worried. Dora lovingly told me... Do or do not...there is no try. This is a new day, a new beginning, I thought to myself. I'm so glad I listened to her words of wisdom. We instantly clicked!! I knew I had finally met my Hans Solo and he had met his Princess Leia. 9 years worth of memories, a move from California to Las Vegas, several Comic-Cons and COVID... we are finally tying the knot!
