I’m sorry. I wish I was more clever as I write this, but there seems to be an inverse relationship between my creativity and how much frosting I have consumed. And I have consumed an appalling amount of frosting today. Because my daughter made an anniversary cake for me and Krissy. And what could I do? I had to have some. And she does slather on the frosting. Mmmm…. frosting. Sweet, sweet forbidden sugary creme goodness.

But I promise if you come to see me tomorrow, June 18, at 7pm at Schuler’s Books, I will be so much more clever. Truly. And not just because I will be having a completely frosting-free day tomorrow. That will merely be a contributing factor.

Also, please do not bring any frosting to the event. That would just be wrong. Tasty, but wrong.

Sooooooooo tasty.

NO I AM NOT ADDICTED TO FROSTING I CAN STOP AT ANYTIME STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT

Uh. So, yeah. See you tomorrow, Lansing.

Seventeen years ago today, Krissy and I got married. I love that we are still married, and I love that I love her more today than when I married her. And I love that she feels the same way.

If you want to give us an anniversary present, here’s all you have to do: Tell the person you love and who loves you how much, in fact, you love them. It’s always a good thing to let them know that, and to remind them of how happy you are that you share each other’s lives. At the very least, it’s worked for us, for seventeen years (and counting).
