I was originally going to say that I'd skip ahead a month or two, to the point where the inital awkwardness has worn off and you start being yourselves around each other but on further thought, starting from the start is just fine. When you meet someone and they seem to flip a switch inside of you that turns your guts into mush, the feeling you get when you forget the lines to your perfectly scripted first phone call just as she answers the phone. There aren't many things that can produce the same kind of rush that meeting someone new gives me. When things get more familiar, I still find myself going back and re-living that initial electricity to sort of remind me of how this person makes me feel.
