How many divorces have you had? How many felonies?

And I still have trouble finding appropriate wedding cards (they all say something about the Bride and Groom).

And our nephew is getting married in June - something he couldn't have done 4 years ago. Huzzah!

I'm still waiting for bands of married gay people to come to my house and ruin my marriage...

And I'm all the way in California! (The fact that he died 8 years ago is irrelevant.)

Kidding, if anyone missed it.
