tomorrow is my anniversary - 15 years. I don't know which of us is worse.
Me: I can't remember if our anniversary is the 17th or 19th.

The husband: It's the 17th.

Me: Oh. That's soon.

The husband: Tomorrow. I'm celebrating by going golfing.

:)

8. Thanks!
Your name is oddly appropriate for this thread. When we first were going out, we didn't talk politics at all. It was a different time, I guess.

Our first political conversation was after the 2000 presidential election. We walked to the polls together, we walked home after voting. We sat down at the dinner table, and I thought: I don't want to ask this, because if he voted for Bush we're going to have problems. But I did finally break the silence by asking who he voted for. He said "Nader, but I want Gore to win."

I started laughing because I voted for Gore, but wanted Nader to win. :D

10. Thanks - I think it will!
The cat-from-hell is on her last legs after 18 years, so I am sure at least most of the next 15 years will not involve stepping in cat puke at 6am. It can only go uphill from here!

6. Sounds like a good gift to me!
I think "a roof over our heads" has romantic possibilities!

It's right up there with one of my favorite Valentine's gifts... I woke up next to a Dyson Animal vacuum cleaner he laid in the bed next to me...I was thrilled...and his friends think I'm the coolest wife ever.

13. Neither you or your husband wins worst honors. That goes to my sister
She called once and asked: Do you remember when me and ##### got married?

Me: well, I wasn't there for THAT wedding, but yeah, I remember.

Sis: Oh GOOD! What was the date? I need it for the divorce papers!

Me: (Well, a face palm just doesn't work over the phone. ;) )

When she asked her grown son what day the anniversary was he responded, oh it's that day when ##### would panic and buy sickly blue flowers at Safeway on his way home and you would get pissed off that he didn't plan something....

But she didn't remember the date. I have NO idea why that marriage didn't work out.

Seriously, you and your beloved are doing fine. You have humor and each other. Enjoy and happy anniversary! Remember: things could be worse :hi:

14. Ours is tomorrow, too.
It will be 32 years. The annual town carnival and summer festival starts tomorrow. I think we might go there and eat junk food and walk around. I don't want to do anything fancy or expensive anyway.
