Two whole years.

Sadly, this’ll be a quickie blog, as I’m traveling through all points Midwest on an extended anniversary weekend.

Happily- I’m traveling through all points Midwest on an extended anniversary weekend!

So. To Peej, the Jack Of All Trades, Man Of My Dreams, and Horse Of A Different Color (I’m not really sure what I mean by that last one, either):

Thank you for introducing me to music that was recorded past 1989.

Thanks for Nora Jane. Couldn’t have done it without ya.

Thanks for riding bikes around town with me like a couple of 8 year olds- even that one time when you had to stop short and I flew over my handlebars. ‘Cause you totally yelled at the guy who caused the whole thing. And that was fun to watch.

On that note, thanks for giving my best friends an amazing story behind the phrase- “Get in the house.”

Thanks for not getting beat up by that gang of frat boys on that samesuch occasion.

Thanks for obliterating that rat. And for catching me on your back during another [outdoor] rat experience.

Thanks for meeting Scott Bakula and seeing Boston in concert with me.  I know you didn’t really want to. Not for real real.

Thanks for making me walk across Rome on foot- which I didn’t really want to do- because when the storm clouds parted and we ended up in that piazza…that was pretty spiffy.

Thanks for harrassing our poor landlord into leasing us the apartment of our dreams- three months before we could move in. I told you I couldn’t live without that miniature office and you totally believed me.

I woulda died without that strawberry patch, too.

Thanks for knowing which line of dialogue, part of harmony and side of the couch is yours.

That time I threw a plate at your head, thanks for ducking.

And finally, thanks for being the kind of kid with whom I would’ve played Flashlight Tag, the kind of boyfriend with whom I have danced on tables, and the kind of husband with whom I can’t wait to retire in a smallish, tastefully decorated Italian villa.

I love you.

Even if you won’t stop to lemme pee.

Again.
