We're getting hitched!

...At work, of course. We both worked at REI back in '99, but missed meeting each other by one month. (Pix was leaving to drive cross country, and Matt was starting out after summer camp.) 12 years later, Matt came back to work at REI in the spring of 2011 after an old colleague called him up. Meanwhile, Pix was planning another cross-country trip, this time from Tucson (where she was working at a new REI) to Philly (where she was transferring to be close to family). We met in the bike shop and Matt told Pix he used to be the guy who recycled name tags and he remembered noticing hers back in '99 because it was such an interesting name. A year and a half later, Pix asked Matt to "be friends" and go out together. Matt knew better, and voila! Now we're getting married (we're friends, too).
