In my travels over the Internet I have met some amazing people. As we all become friends and get to know one another, there is a natural desire to meet face-to-face. It has almost become a game to meet as many Internet friends as possible. However, it's not just a game; it is a chance to become closer friends and to form stronger bonds. Note: Internet names, rather than real names, have been used.

Kaz happened to pass through CA. (Ignore
my wind-blown hair.)
Kaz and his brother, Spacebar, both live
in Canada.
Ferrick went to UC
Davis, but finished before I began.
We met at Sudwerk's,
a popular hangout
in Davis, CA.
Ayako and I live an
hour apart, so we met
each other halfway.*
After eating an Italian dinner, we admired realistic barrels.*
Her sister, Amber,
tried to help us figure out my camera.*
Months later, I went
to Ayako's house to
eat fresh cookies.
Flyingcats, from Southern California,
was in the area.
Somehow, all three of
us managed to survive the blinding sun.*
But Ayako apparently
forgot where the
camera was.
Flyingcats looked on while Ayako and I took
pictures of each other.
Then we went on a
walk, where Flyingcats
fell to her death.
Flyingcats then lived
long enough to see Ayako's puppies.
This little guy decided that he liked Ayako
more than his siblings.
Ayako and I met
again a few months later; she was armed.
Help! Ayako is beating me over the head
with
a large mallet!
Yes, that sinister
grin means that I
got her back.
Ayako and I notice
most typos, and this sign didn't escape us.
And those cute little
puppies grew up
very quickly.
