vows
So, I clicked on the "Weddings and Celebrations" link of the NYT, out of sheer morbid curiosity. I've never read the Vows page before and I tend to get my fill of weddings doing the layout for the Albuquerque Journal's own Couples section, but today? Clicky.
Aside from discovering Senator Jack Reed (D, RI) tied the knot a few weeks back, I wasn't really feeling it, until I saw a familiar name. I clicked. Oh. Okay. Not her.
Still, there was that moment when I thought, out of all the people to come out of Ruidoso, New Mexico, she would be the most likely candidate to turn up in the Times.
Speaking of weddings, our fifth anniversary is coming up a week from Monday. We've offically beat the first set of marriage statistics! We lived together pre-wedding and still made it to the five year mark! Suck on that, sociology!
And really, to go screaming off topic here, isn't "Freedom 90" still just as sexy as when Naomi Campbell sauntered around with clamshell headphones fifteen years ago?
Fuck, that was fifteen years ago.*
*If there was ever a time to drop an F-bomb, that was it. Christ. When did that happen?

That's awesome that y'all have been together almost five years. People love to go around spouting out numbers about everyone who breaks up, but they don't talk about the people who stay together. Which is a shame. So congrats on beating the odds. :)

We've only beaten one set of odds. It goes, half of all marriages end in divorce. Half of marriages end in the first five years, of the remaining, half end before ten and of those remaining, half end before twenty.
So we've got about fifteen years to go before people start shutting up about it.
