Happy Phoniversary

trying to keep the signal to noise at a minimum, here are three semi-related news items.

  1. Happy Anniversary to my lovely wife, who has put up with me a good deal longer than i would have done (given a choice in the matter): 14 years in a conjugal capacity, longer if you count the years of prior goofing. to celebrate we had a slap up, six course dinner at what must be the nicest restaurant in Bali and are now completely cured of the need for food, wine, or exotic citrus fruits for the foreseeable.
  2. Happy Anniversary to those in my family that share the same date as Tash and I. Mom, Dad, Jeff, and Cyn: selamat ulang tahun pernikahan!
  3. and, on a slightly more upbeat note: i’ve lost my bloody phone. it bounced out of my pocket yesterday while riding the bike somewhere between here and there. here’s my new number:

deliberately starving yourself before a big meal is not necessarily the greatest plan:
1) you can look a little too keen beforehand 2) you’re drunk after the first drink and
3) your stomach gets the pregnancy treatment as you require it to triple in size and workload in the space of a couple of hours

    awwwww happy anniversary you preposterously good looking people – 14 years deserves a tickertape parade and shiny medals, not just a nice dinner out. i raise a glass of pop and a round of huzzahs in your general direction. xx

    Is it 14 years since we last played in a park in Toronto at 3 in the morning? Congratulations you wonderful people . I have no idea how your wife has done it? Big hugs from a far.

    thanks fella. fourteen years since we bailed early on our own ceremony, the music conked out and in my speech, i thanked all but the most important.
    have to agree on the wifely comment. 😉

    cheers my love. needless to say, the photos were carefully selected, edited, even airbrushed to put forward a reasonable face on our 14th.
    the pictures after the six courses with ‘paired’ wines didn’t quite make the cut.
    hope all is well with family and wee Dash, and that sleep is not proving so elusive these days.
    looking forward to catching up in person!

    hey gorgeous – i just left a more sentimental wondering on the good wife’s blog, but just wanted to say “aw, you guys” to you too.

    an inspiration to us all, truly 😉

    love
