Speaking of office romance ...

Bakosphere stirred up some activity the other day in a post about office romance. So, it was an interesting surprise to have a local example of office romance pop up on CNN.

Laura and Joshua Meier met while working at the Klein Denatale Goldner law firm in Bakersfield, and kept their romance secret for a time until their boss spotted them and Laura's child in public. They later married, and moved to Orange County this summer.

Laura, posting as "newportmama," submitted her story to CNN's iReport, ending with this bit of advice:

"I would highly recommend dating a co-worker.  If there was a down side it was the cost of the wedding because of course we wanted all the office to be there!"

"CNN Newsroom" was scheduled to broadcast a piece on the Meiers this morning.

I'm happy for the couple that they are the exception. In my younger days I dated coworkers. Socializing is one thing; I would avoid romance.

I think it's sweet when a couple truly finds happiness together. No matter how or where they met. Too bad there are many of us who just keep having history repeat itself and hearts get broken.

I dunno.  Mixing business with dating has never worked for me, and I'd strongly advise others against it.

I met my husband that way.

Going on 30 years together now, and absolutely inseparable.
