Happy Anniversary to Us

If it hadn't been for a telephone call from [livejournal.com profile] kent4str's mother yesterday and e-mail from my own this morning, I'd have utterly missed that yesterday was our 12th anniversary.

12 years, no homicides... Yay!

No homicides yet - the day is young...

Well, it's pretty clear that neither of you were victims of a homicide (although I have seen "The Stepford Wives", so just having someone around who looks like a spouse doesn't mean much)

By the way, shouldn't it be "12 years, no convictions for homicide"?

Heh. You know, I, too, am entering the land of "wha? anniversary? wait, what?" We hit the 11 mark three weeks ago with very little fanfare. Said fanfare usually having been my doing in the past.

Glad to hear you have your family well-trained enough to recall for you. Mine can't seem to get that. I think it's the poly thing that confuses them ... which means, don't count on any calls NEXT year LOL. ;-)

Congrats!

If I missed our anniversary, I'd be just so much chopped liver!

I knew it was 12 years, but forgot the actual date. Bad officiant! No biscuit!

So it's 13 years since the original betrothal, then.

Yup, Lucky 13.

12 Years, how charming. What is that, the Jiffy Pop anniversary?

Bob and I just celebrated our Vicodin anniversary in March.

yay to no deaths. Congrats Mr Bears...

No homicides is good. So is 12 years!

Wishful thinking????

Ummmmm.....
not to spoil the celebration, but the videotape is labeled:
"Brian and Kent's Wedding 5/18/97"
Just because it feels like it's longer than it actually is doesn't mean you can make it go any faster.
Happy 11th Anniversary to my loving couple!

It's a bit of a calendar nightmare. The big event with the family was in 1997 --that's what the mothers were calling about-- but the first ring exchange was a year earlier before I moved to the US.

Since I moved down 10/1/96, I guess we should be celebrating 11.5 years of no homicides...

brian, darling, have you gone over to the dark side? no wonder you're getting nightmares if you're dating things thataway.

you were raised in Canada. you should know better than to use the completely illogical mm dd,yy(yy) dating system. all of civilisation knows it should be either dd mm yy(yy) [smallest to biggest], or better still yyyy mm dd [biggest to smallest]

ya gotta maintain standards! and remember, the last letter of the alphabet is pronounced "zed"!
