Today is a special day dear blog reader. Today is 1000 days after I said “I do” to my lovely wife.

Far from it being a typical alter, I mean our apartment was the setting on the first January day with a dearest non-religious friend of ours who officiated. As Me and my wife are quite unnatural in almost all social ways. In fact it was our down to earth, yet fancy ideas that brought about our homely, 30 something guest wedding directly after the chimes of the new year had rung out.

If ever you need to do a wedding, make sure your vows are at the end of a night of drinking, music and merriment. Every one of your guests will swear that it’s the best wedding they’ve ever been to, even those that can remember it. It may seem cheap (it was) but that wasn’t the real reason for doing this kind of wedding, it just suited our styles.

For those not in our loop; as well as exchanging rings, we also exchanged the books and stories that had changed our way of looking at the world. How much more nerdy can you get?

Well what about celebrating metric demiversaries? Our Anniversary is on January first, too easy to remember. But what about every 100 days? that’s a bloody pain in the neck and just perfect for us geeks. OK so the computer helps get the dates right. But think about it, roughly 3 chances a year to celebrate being together and every 3 or so years (1000 days) you get to have a big bash to really celebrate being together.

Today was our first bash, 1000 days and we went all out. Got dressed up to go out to Lock Ober and then a movie at the Lowes Cinema. You can see what we looked like going out this evening, utterly divine. My wife is really very good at picking out well fitting vintage clothes and I have my suite and hat (and stick) like any fine gentleman celebrating a night out.
