The Most Pregnant Event That Occurred

The most pregnant event that occurred... in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania recorded July sixth nineteen sixty upon birth of she who doggedly pursued me to the ends of the earth and what not take no as an answer. Unbeknownst to yours truly a baby girl got born sixty three years from aforementioned date; she automatically triggered excited buzzfeeding murmurs heard amidst the madding crowd patiently awaiting to secure their eats at none other than Horn & Hardart offering their house special, albeit free of charge; the grandfather of present day food service industry company Grubhub acknowledged storied birth with roster of special guests such as: Connie Francis, Eddie Cochran (the latter came all the way over from the United Kingdom), and even then president Dwight David Eisenhower made guest appearance. Meanwhile, about sixty plus miles away a little boy, (who lived in Levittown, Pennsylvania) experienced a fleeting warm gentle caress identical to soft summer breeze linkedin to sugar and spice and everything nice; he smiled and unknowingly blushed unaware his destined lifemate secured courtesy good housekeeping seal of approval, which may seem like an otter outrageous claim, but mark my words approximately thirty orbitz around the sun later would witness his heartthrob (currently snoozing away on the bed) pledging to accept first one contra dance after another until... death due him part. I ofttimes sat alone on the concrete steps at Summit Presbyterian Church 6757 Greene Street, Philadelphia, PA 19119 perusing contents of reading material unable to focus on the words, cuz excitement prevailed to exalt in an evening of pure ecstasy. The third Thursday each month at eight o'clock post meridiem held special significance at above named facility, which constituted kibitizing, fraternizing, but especially flirting while contra dancing usually with no ulterior motive. Our fate got sealed upon occasion, when I willingly shared Neptune Salad (a discontinued product sold at Wawa) with lass who stood all of four feet and eleven inches and sported trademark long thick hair, whose locks (I dreadfully report long since got lopped off), then rivalled those of Rapunzel. As an introverted generic long haired pencil necked geeky lad always awkward in the company of people (even making small talk), an eventual comfort to converse arose with longitudinally challenged referenced gal, whose buzzfeeding dialogue indeed jump/kick started us to exchange tidbits about ourselves, such as address, age, birthday... and other general information, hence bringing to my awareness regarding special occasion she made debut appearance within webbed, wide world. Said lass subsequently became dance partner for life after she found herself with child we became husband and wife.
