Matt was living in Arlington, VA and Maggie was living in Columbia Heights so Matt suggested a middle area of Dupont. He picked Circa, a DC staple. Matt's Uber arrived a few minutes early and he noticed large closed signs all over the windows of Circa. He quickly audibled to a nearby place called Mission, which is where they met for the first time. It was too crowded so they made their way to an empty dive bar next door. They ended up talking for hours about college, work, and DC living. It was the start of something special.
