fourteen years and counting
excuse me if this gets a little personal…
It was fourteen years ago today that we had one epic house party celebrating the fact that earlier that day, we got up in front of a bunch of people and said that we’d continue down the path of life together from now on. I mean, we’d been doing that a while already in practice, but that day, we made it official in the eyes of whoever keeps track of those things on the cosmic ledger. It was a pretty good party, if I recall, and people still talk about it. I’m glad we did it. Both things, that is.
If I were more clever, I’d find a way to make a crass-but-endearing joke about avoiding the seven year itch twice over, but to tell you the truth, that societal concept has never really been an issue, because it’s really always been you. Sure, there are some bumps and distractions and such – we’ve been classified as a unit for nearly two decades, you have to realistically expect some of that- but when it comes down to it, I can’t imagine you not being there…scratch that, I *can* imagine it (I have a good imagination), and it scares the crap out of me. I guess that’s part of what love is, huh?
So, let’s keep adventuring together, okay? It’s more fun and less scary when you’re with me.
Happy Anniversary.
