Smile WoW to Real Life

As you guys know im a WoW addict.
I started playing December of 2004. And have been playing until now. During these 2 or 3 years of playing I met Nano (David). We leveled together and basically made ruckus together throughout these 3 years. This summer I told him hey ill be in Seattle maybe we'll meet. So we met! (Im nearly 17 hes 43). We had a great day we ate out went to the movies. This is my first experience meeting someone from Azeroth / Online.
And no I didn't get raped or marry him because thats how most Internet meetings end up. It was really the highlight of my summer and I wanted to share it with you guys.

Thanks,
Preacher

Lol.... I have a funny story about someone I met on WoW.... I was trying to help her with a Quest, cause we were both noobs, but she was totally bugging me, it took her FOREVER to do stuff.... We have been friends now for a few years, and neither of us play WoW anymore, but we still talk... still haven't met, but she has been up to Chicago a few times.... Back when we played she tried to get me to visit her a few times, but I told her that her husband probably wouldn't like that, and I didn't have the vacation time at work to go.... lol... She I think is in her mid 30's....
