A life in the balance
I beautiful illustration of how a small thing can make a big difference in your life. You make the old "A butterfly's sneeze..." platitude personal and real. Warm and inviting. Put THAT on your book jacket and print it!

I love the part where you build up to the mention of the single: Triple Beam Balance (quoting the un-scientific girl).
Definitely made me LOL.
What a heartwarming happy ending!
loved that line. your story makes me want to go back to science class and feign triple-bean balance ignorance! good luck!

Though already hitched myself, you've proven that there's hope for us all. Bravo! Great delivery. That was so ready for ATC or TAL.

Wow, I wish I had better luck in my lab classes. You definitely know how to tell a compelling story with a hero to root for. A Cinderella/Peter Parker tale indeed!
Very good storytelling skills, and excellent comedic timing. I can definitely hear a story like this on "This American Life".
A fellow nerd! Your entry is wonderful...thank you, and good luck!
Listening to your story I had to smile. It seems it is always the little things that turn into the big things in life.
Good Luck-

Which is good as long as the big things they turn into turn out for the best. For me, it's been "so far, so good," and I count myself lucky. Thanks for listening, Steve.

Delightful. And terribly romantic, I think. What a hoot!
