The cool thing about having a Halowe’en related anniversary is that your betrothed can send you cool flower arrangements like this one…

I spent my anniversary with my Mom and Dad, actually. They came down for the afternoon, we had lunch at Gus’ Sir Beef, and then we drove around Charlotte and did a bit of shopping. The flowers showed up about three minutes after we got home. And then, I checked my answering machine and found that (yay!) someone actually wants to interview me for a job. And it’s not at McDonald’s or the new Dunkin’ Donuts down the street…

It’s been a good day, all in all. Only one thing would have made it better…

Four years in and I love him more than ever. Happy anniversary, baby…

Interesting moments in hair, continued. These are from 1982 and 1987:

 

In about eighty-four hours, I’ll be in San Francisco visiting my hubby for the fourth anniversary of the weekend we met. Fortunately, we’ll be LEAVING San Francisco with twenty-four hours of my arrival, bound for a weekend in Fresno…

I’m very happpy to be making this trip, because I miss Mark something fierce and because I’m looking forward to seeing some friends. But I have to say that the San Francisco aspect of the trip doesn’t do much for me. I’m not actively dreading it or anything; I’m just a touch ambivalent. It’s rather like going through a bad breakup with someone and then running into him at a party shortly afterward. I’m not quite ready to deal with San Francisco just yet. Fortunately, I won’t have to deal with it very much…

I sometimes wonder if I’ll ever really be excited about visiting San Francisco again. I imagine that some sort of nostalgia will set in at some point, but I think it’s going to take quite a while…

Strangely enough, I miss LA a whole bunch. Probably because I never lived there…
