I'm writing to you because I have a story about meeting Tom this past spring. He came to Montreal and he was signing autographs at a night club downtown. At the time I did not know about it. I was listening to the radio on my way back from work one night and heard of a contest to be a special guest of Tom's at the autograph signing at the club. So for the next couple of days I listened to the radio day in and day out but never got throught the DJ. When I finaly talked to the DJ, the contest was over. So I begged for a while and then accepted the fact that I was not lucky enought to be so close to him.

The night of the signing I dragged my boyfriend to the nightclub and looked for Tom for an hour before he finally showed up. When I saw him sitting there...I froze. What a hunk! He looked soooo good!!! He was wearing dark pants and a white shirt. I was a wreck. At the time there was not a lot of women around him cause he had just arrived. So I bought a picture of him and went up to him. He looked at me and reached for the picture but I said « can I get a kiss first?» So he smiled, I melted, he got up and gave me two kisses on the cheeks and I also got a bonus hug!( My heart beats faster just writing about it) Then he pulled away and noticed I have a nose ring. He said «did this hurt?» and he was still very close to my face. I answered no and he asked «can I touch it?» and I said sure!!!! and he did. At that time I hear a girl in the back of me saying «you can touch me all you want Tom!» so I smiled... So then Tom asked «what's your name honey?» I melted again. I said Karen and he wrote: TO KAREN, COOL RING! LOVE TOM XXX.

Then I went back to my boyfriend who was waiting for me all alone and showed him the pic but somehow he was not impressed...but he was happy for me. I turned around to take one last look at my Tom but then I noticed some girls were taking pictures with him! I looked closer and saw a lady with a polaroid charging for pictures so i said «I want one of those!!!» So my boyfriend said «go ahead!» So I went. Now everybody in the club was in on Tom being there so there was quite a line of women waiting. I must of waited at least an hour. When it was my turn Tom had unbottoned his shit half way cause it was so warm in the club and with all the people being around him. What a sight! So I got another hug and two more kisses and a picture with him... I was floating... The picture did not turn out very well. The lady took the picture too fast and we were not done smiling when she took the shot. I probably own the worst picture of Tom Eplin ever! But I love it anyways cause its me and my Tom... It was great.

I dont know if you ever met Tom before but I found him to be quite like Jake. Charming, smiling, ¨honeying¨ he even picked up some of the girls for the pictures! Lucky them! I will never forget this day and I love Tom even more since I met him.
