"Hello Stanley!

My name is David, and I have recently come across the blog you made for our "Join the Family - 2k15" contest! I must say, I am very pleased to see an individual so enthusiastic for our delightful company! Zenith is proud to help the everyman, especially you! :D

This e-mail is to serve as a notification that you have been officially entered in the Contest! Yay!

What does this mean for you? Well, simply put, it means you are one step closer to becoming a branch on the Zenith Family Tree! Whoohoo!!!

I was reading your delightful introductory post, and I saw mention that you have a woman in your life by the name of Heather! How sweet! I'm sure you two are literally the definition of perfection together, and we would love to hear about it! To continue your involvement in the Contest, I ask that you write up a post about your dearest Heather! Spare no details!

Wow! Haha, this definitely e-mail definitely brightened my day a bit! I am more than happy to talk about Heather, but there is a lot to talk about.

We met online about three years ago. The two of us were pretty into Guild Wars back then, and our first interactions were through the game. Eventually we connected over Skype and regularly called each other while we played together, and it was nice! We soon came to find out we had a lot more in common with one another than we had thought. Admittedly, I developed a bit of a thing for her pretty early on. I'm not very confident, though, so it took me a long while to muster up the courage to actually admit my feelings to her. When I did tell her, I immediately hopped offline and didn't check back for a few hours. As embarrassing as that is, it all worked out! When I checked back, she was incredibly flustered and stated that the feeling was mutual. We're both very awkward people, so we haven't had much relationship experience.

Our first date was a week later. We watched Cannibal Holocaust over a livestream together. We both love the found-footage horror genre. She thought the gross-out shots were awesome.

For a long time, all we had was each other. We didn't (and still don't) have many friends, as we are both from really small towns. She is from Wihtikow, Canada (which is so small that it isn't marked on most maps) and I am from Empire, Colorado. We had each other, though, and that's all that mattered. As long as we could talk to one another, we didn't care about being practically alone.

Humorously enough, neither of us actually saw each other's face until around 7 months into out relationship. We are both Panromantic, so looks weren't too important, especially for us and esepcially for a long distance relationship. When I did see her though, holy shit! She has this soft, amazingly structures face that has so much life and charm in it. Her skin is just south of a tan, but not pale. Her eyes were practically two wide, doughy emeralds. She has black hair. And her smile... 

I like to think I am a really lucky guy.

We've been trying to make plans to see one another, but we're both very pressed for cash. Maybe one day!

I hope didn't find my ramblings of admiration boring!
