Thirteen
Today is our thirteenth wedding anniversary (see our wedding picture at the link--we eloped).
I have a cold. Bleh.
We did get to celebrate last night in between a work function I had to attend and the onset of this cold. It was a beautiful night so we strolled along Philosopher's Walk on the campus where I work and took in some of the Nuit Blanche exhibits.
We are not really modern art people. I find whimsy in the things we looked at: balloons teethered on a cord of lights, a film about teaching white people funk dancing, an Event Horizon space ship landing on campus (with guys in biohazard suits and "media" and all the other things needed to make it look like a real crashed spaceship--at least on the Fox channel.)
But the idea of walking through crowds of people for whimsey doesn't do anything for me or Craig (especially Craig).
I really did like the miniature bar. Everything was tiny and it was really crowded.
Craig's head for scale
So we went to a little neighbourhood joint and had a nice late dinner.
Here's to thirteen years.
Congrats! But sorry you feel miserable.
We just celebrated our 10th anniversary by going away for a weekend w/o kids...our first weekend alone in 7 years!

Congratulations! sorry you feel icky. Try some Cold FX. It doesn't cure the cold exactly. More like speed you through it. It takes about 3 days to got through the cold instead of 10 days or so.

Well, congratualtions!
On a totally different note,I've been thinking a lot about what you were saying at Lk on Wed. - about the need for acquiring the right yarns, stash enhancement etc., and how that may be fuelled by the internet. Similar themes have been bothering me. I may have to do a post about it when I gather my thoughts sufficiently.

Happy anniversary! My Mom used to say, "If you don't take anything for a cold you will be sick for a week. If you take a lot of cold medicine it will only last 7 days."

Happy Anniversary and many more.
Sorry about the cold -- it's too early for it to start isn't it?

Happy thirteenth, and many more! I don't know if they sell Airborne in Canada, but it's an herbal supplement that really does seem to ease cold symptoms very well. I'm glad you can make it to Rhinebeck, it should be fun.
