a review of our past five anniversaries together...

(because all the stuff before was... well... NSFW. heh heh... hint, hint, wink, wink, nudge, nudge, knowhatimean...)

the paper year - we bought tickets to california and spent a few luxurious days and nights at the beautiful babbling brook inn in santa cruz, ca. and feasted on a romantic dinner at shadowbrook (with that tremendously cool 1958 funicular) in capitola.

the cotton year - the year we splurged on a week long vacation in london (because i was 4 or 5 mos pregnant with the paloma and we weren't sure when we'd ever get to travel to europe again). my favorite memory is taking the train to oxford, where we visited your other college and took that long walk and fed the deer at the grove.

the leather year - subterranean, candlelit, fondue dinner at geja's cafe with lots and lots of yummy wine and spanish guitar. you bought me my beautiful leather jacket that year. you can feed me fondue anytime...

the linen year - that was the "live like the pretty pipples" anniversary - a two night stay at the decadent park hyatt chicago and a delicious dinner at NoMI (with the michigan avenue table under the chihuly lights).

the wood year - how appropriate. we got all the floors (1st floor) stripped and redone last year. and i wrote this. and um... we suffered thru my pregnancy w/ the porkchop while we waited for the sox to win the world series.... which they did! SOUTH SIIIIIIDE! :)

and this year?

THIS YEAR YOU'RE GOING TO SPEND OUR ANNIVERSARY WITH FRACKING TOUCHDOWN JESUS, YOUR FRACKING UCLA ALUMS/FRATERNITY BROTHERS AND THOUSANDS OF OTHER FRACKING, FOOTBALL, FACE PAINTING, FLAG WAVING FREAKS!!!!

but, i'm not bitter.


GO IRISH!

I HOPE YOU SLAUGHTER THE BRUINS!
(won't take much, they got schooled by the ducks last week...)

yeah, yeah... happy anniversary... thanks for the flowers... kisses... love ya... mean it... blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...

;)


UPDATE: UCLA 17, NOTRE DAME 20.

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

barb - no worries... UCLA is now enemy numero uno. i'm rooting for USC and anyone else who'll pound them. i shoulda known this was going to happen - when we were planning the wedding, he had to consult the UCLA schedule to make sure there wasn't an important game playing that weekend. and i had my heart set on a beautiful location in berkeley but he didn't want to get married anywhere near CAL. >_<

Happy anniversary! [I can't stand football, so whatever...] ;)

I am sorry that ND-UCLA took precedence this year over our 6th anniversary (the IRON anniversary-WOW-what is the appropriate gift-andirons? a set of irons? a brigade of union infantry?) but I will make it up to you, somehow. Now please go back to cheering for my alma mater, especially against USC!

Happy Anniversary! I'm also a football widow-join the club! However, I was very smart and had a summer wedding--all right, I'm lying, never even thought about football when we set the date, but I am now very grateful that our wedding wasn't in the fall. My husband is diabolical, he's slowly indoctrinating our children in the worship of the Steeler Gods-I still can't keep the rules straight, but our 8 yr old daughter gives me info when I do watch. :-)
