His name was Doug, and he was Donny Osmond handsome. My friends and I would walk up to the store every day he worked to gaze upon him. We would sit on the bench outside for hours. My friend Kris's father owned the store, and she was a member of the Doug fan club also, so we were never asked to "move along". It was all for naught, as Doug blatantly ignored us all for the 2 years we gazed at him. My friend Kris later found out many years later that he was gay. lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08702597564760699067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-89199373468679908222017-07-31T05:35:37.437+10:002017-07-31T05:35:37.437+10:00Wow, Annie, what a sumptuous treat of a first kiss...Wow, Annie, what a sumptuous treat of a first kiss.

The most significant one would have been when I started my first job and he worked in the same building.
