10 year anniversary
February 13, 2008
Tomorrow, Feb 14, is my 10th anniversary. I’ve been married to my great wife Lesley for 10 years. Today is really the last day of the 10th years we’ve been married – tomorrow starts year 11! I’ve never done*anything* for 10 years except be alive. Never lived at any one address for 10 years – well, not as an adult anyway. Never worked at one company for 10 years. But I’ve been married for 10 years. Wow.
We’ve had lots of ups and downs during that time frame, as many of you who know us personally can attest to. She’s been fabulous throughout all the ordeals we’ve faced, and I look forward to the next 10 years with even more excitement.
UPDATE: I was trying to come up with a “countdown” from 10, but I can’t do the whole thing. However from 6, we’ve had 6 jobs, 5 cars, 4 houses, 3 states we lived in, 2 cats and 1 marriage.

My parents were also married on feb 14, way back in 1961. They’ve been divorced and married since then, so the date is no longer as significant, except for the fact that I was born roughly nine months later, and my brother was born on the same day roughly nine months after their first anniversary. Hmm… wonder what they were doing on their wedding night and first anniversary?

Thanks guys, and thanks to those who wrote privately. Randal, they were probably playing Scrabble or Monopoly – just a guess.
