My Haunted First Date!
For the final installment in my Halloween series, I thought it fitting to share about my first date with T-Daddy.
First things first... Yep! I was an intern. And yep! I dated my boss. When both of our Halloween plans fell through, we—happily—decided to spend the evening together. Lawsuit in the making, I know! So sue me LOL!
The smart thinking man that he is, Roger (as I called him to my co-workers), planned a memorable trip to the Haunted Forest—perfect for holding hands, grabbing onto each other, and getting close.
Skipping over lots of tricks and treats and 12 years later, here we are. One big, happy and fortunately NOT haunted, family.
