So after a tough fight, which was neck-and-neck for more than 24 hours before option 2 broke away from the pack this afternoon, here is your Fun Monday assignment this week:Describe your meeting with your spouse/significant other. I especially want to hear "meet cute" stories. And it doesn't have to be your actual current sig/other. Perhaps the "meet cute" story is a former boy/girlfriend... or even a best friend. Illustrate with photos, of course.
So get out there and dazzle us with your stories on Monday, October 15. The list of the participants so far is below. If you want to participate and are not on the list, leave a comment or email me directly.

It's not too late to join in the fun. Just let me know. (And if you are a first-timer, and I didn't designate you as such, let me know that too!)
(And -- obviously I'm addicted to parentheses -- I did take down the vote post. Otherwise it would bury my very funny Potty Talk post! Heh.) (*edited to add: kaytabug saved me and I have now put my original post back. Thanks, k!)
ANYWAY, back to the point: I have had a great time hosting so far. If you would like to take over the duties for next week, please email me at jsongbird4(at)aol(dot)com.

Yes! I'll join in this one!
I promised last week to post my now-husband's Match.com ad and I haven't yet, so I think this sounds like the perfect opportunity. Please sign me up.
I am SO IN on this! I was just doing a meme for Sunday and described just a tad bit about my meeting my hubby....but I will truly expand on it for Monday!!
What fun. This is gonna be a sweet Monday 'me thinks'!!!
Damnit Janet! I can't do this one!
(Unless someone will lend me a significant other for the day).
I want to do it!!
I'll play! (Even though I had plans to post this story for next month's NaBloWriMo.) I just hate to miss out on a Fun Monday. Thanks for hosting!
Sorry, I haven't a clue on the tech issue...I defected from blogger a while ago.
Janet when you are composing the post, rt above publish post is post options click on it and you can change the date to whatever date you want say Sunday the 14th then everything should come up below it...

Please add me in. Thanks.
great I'm glad that one won, should make for lots of good stories. I am definitely in!
Ack! Pictures?! I don't have any pics to illustrate *sob* Does it count if I jsut describe it really well?
I had to think this one over. I've got an idea now, so COUNT ME IN. Thanks.
I can't wait to see some of those stories.
Hey wonman, I tagged you. Hahaha, you're it. :)
Okay. Put me on the list...maybe I'll meet someone by Monday.
I just told mine, and I'm not even part of the group. So... Do I get brownie points at least? :)
I'll do it and I think I've got some pics on my computer that I scanned in awhile ago.
Oh wow...I think I can remember that far back...count me in!

Me too Me too!
I needed to think about this, as you mentioned I wrote about this recently, but then I forgot all about it.
So I guess I'll just tweak the post for FM, that means I'm in.
Sorry so late. Please sign me up!

when posting click post options and enter the date and time you want the blog to be displayed
me real name is katy lol
Well, Like Min, I don't have a significant other currently, but I'm sure I can dig up a story from my past...I've been meaning to tell some "Ex" stories anyway....so, okay, I'm in!
Please add me to the list. I keep forgetting to email and always end up at the end every week.
Hey Janet,
I'm in....now I'm curious what the votes were about (gonna try to find that :) ).
Hi! I think I can do this one. (First timer). Eeek! Except I don't know what "meet cute" exactly means, so I'll just sort of pretend I do.
Count me in for Fun Monday, but it may be Tuesday before I get the post up. I keep getting dirty looks from people for spending 20 minutes at a time on the computer in the hotel business center and Danny has been using his laptop nonstop. Maybe I can use the laptop during the drive home on Monday and post it as soon as I get home.
Add Kitten to your list,please.

The list of participants just keeps growing and growing doesn't it? Being hostess is most likely a fun thing, but lots o' work too!!
Happy Sunday.
Thanks for the visit.
[I have my Fun Monday all ready and drafted for later this evening to publish]
Have a great day.
I'm back....like the plague!! I know I know---you are trying desperately to hide from me.
But, I was wondering if anyone has stood up for hosting the NEXT Fun Monday. ---a show of parentheses here--> (That would be October 22nd? Right?) If not, I will!!! Let me know, either way, in my blog comment section, okay?
Count me in!
I was SO STINKIN' LATE LAST WEEK, mine's already done for tomorrow...except now I gotta go find pictures to scan for it.
Thanks for hosting--looks like a lot of peeps came up with an idea for this :).
CAN I BE ADDED PLEASE!!! I'm SO excited, that's why I "yelled"
Count me in for my first Fun Monday!!
Throwing my hat into the ring over at Mama Drama. Yeah, it's been a while since I participated. I thought it was time. Thanks!!!
I've only participated once before, but would love to join in if that's ok! I'm going to post right now!
I suppose I should specify which blog if you're clicking through my profile! ;-) The Humble Housewife one! Thanks!
I FINALLY found that STUPID picture! You should see my house, Janet...it's upside down. Thanks for this fun stroll down memory lane, though.
I'll be Fun Mondaying all week to pay for the time it took me to find my pic, lol. Hmmm, maybe I should organize my pictures....!
this sounds like fun. i think i will do this too.
I got mine up..finally. Please add me to the list. ALthough it is wayyy too late.
Whew! My post is finally up and now I'm ready to read everyone else's. Thanks for hosting this week. What a fun trip down memory lane it has been:o)
Can we add one more. My parents 54th anniversary was the 15th and they were willing to share their meet cute.
