Hmm…seems like both of us forgot our wedding anniversary last Wednesday. Had to be reminded of it by a friend.
It’s not such a big deal for just a 4th anniversary, IMHO, but some people seem to think it’s a big deal. They probably don’t know us I suppose.
Still trying to sell our house. We’ve had a couple come around twice and they seem really keen. The second visit was on Thursday night to see how the house was in the dark. I’ve never really worried about being slightly isolated here and neither has Jude, but it seemed really important to them. We got a call yesterday saying that they really, really like the house but that the missus was still afraid of the location. “Can panic buttons be added to the alarm system” was the big questions. “Yep, no problem”. “Can we have one in each room….?” “I suppose you could…if you really want them”. “What about security lights with infra-red detectors”….and so on and so on.
Some history there, me thinks but as long as they buy the place, what do I care?
I expect having kids puts things like wedding anniversaries on a back burner – you’ve got two birthdays plus mother’s and father’s days to remember suddenly, on top.
Not that I’d know, like The Force, cats don’t have birthdays as such.
I’m glad someone understands Vanessa. It’s not like its that important really – the traditional 4th wedding gift is flowers or fruit, but the NEW version (sponsored by Dixons) is appliances. Very romantic indeed – a load of fruit or a new dish washer to replace teh one that went bangpuff during the week.
Anyway, I expect romance will disappear off the agenda when I see Jude getting cut open on Tuesday – there’s something about seeing your beloved’s bladder and bowel that knocks that sort of shenanigans on the head for a few weeks
