That’s teh bunnie Rabbitch Herself In Person there on the left, and Lovely Mandy on the right at our wedding in Vancouver. Ahhh. That was good.
We spent the last few days in San Simeon, celebrating our second
anniversary. I know, can you believe it? We can’t. No, really, we
can’t. A great two years. Here’s to many more! Pictures of Hearst
Castle to follow when I get them off the camera.
We had a wonderful mid-week celebration. And I have a co-worker
working for me tomorrow, so I have another day off tomorrow, a day that
I might well squander on frivolous pastimes. Like laundry. Grocery
shopping. I might write a bit, but given the fact that I’ve completed
the novel’s fourth and final (for now) rewrite, and I’ve sent my query
off for agent review, I’m going to be happy to do nothing at all. (And
whee! So happy!) I might go to bed soon, even though it’s only 9:15pm.
Reading in bed until the book drops out of my hand: one of my favorite
things in life.
This morning:
The view from our dog-friendly beachside hotel (Best Western Cavalier, San Simeon). What a cute black dog!
Harriet has something to TELL YOU!
It is that Miss Idaho gets all the fun with Lala:
Clara, our border collie, was boarded with her phenomenal dog-walkers,
and we get her back tomorrow. I’m sure she’ll come back with her
learner’s permit or something. Thank god. I’m going to send her to the
store for more beer.
E.T.A. – I was just browsing the blog for that wedding picture, and
I went to April 2007, instead of April 2006. I am ASTONISHED that we
have had the kittens for
a year this month. That is ridiculous. And it was a year that I told
you Digit was gone (psych!). I yelled at Lala (who is playing Super
Mario on the Wii), "Did you know it’s been a year since we got the
kittens?!?"
She said, "That explains why they’re so big!"
Laurie says
Happy Anniversary! And no, I can’t believe it has been 2 years! But I have loved reading about your deliciously happy marriage every chance I get. Big smooches to the both of you! And the fur-kids.
no-blog-rachel says
Aw, you guys are just cute. All a youse. Happy anniversary and many, many many more!
Rabbitch says
My god, she’s brilliant.
(It’s also because you keep feeding them.)
Happy anniversary, babies. I think that’s the last time I wore a skirt. It’s ’cause you’re special.
I think it’s time for you to come back to visit, don’cha know?
Celia says
Aw. You guys are so cute it oughta be illegal. Wait a minute. It is, by golly! Is that why? Good for you: for being married two years, for the beachside celebration, and for taking an extra day off to do the really relaxing things like laundry and grocery shopping.

Super Mario Galaxy is amay-zing! I call it SPARKLES because of the little star bits. Sometimes it’s easy to get sidetracked from a level’s mission because I’m obsessively collecting SPARKLES. Must. Collect. SPARKLESSSS.
Congrats on 2 years! Dang, I’m gonna get all misty.

Happiest anniversary, sweetie!
Coincidentally, I just mentioned your wedding stole when we were recording our next episode (pardon the past/future tense thing).
Thanks for being a model of love and togetherness!
Carol says
Congratulations! You know it’s a good relationship when the years don’t seem like years!
Temperance says
Happy Aniversery! Your ‘vacation’ looks heavenly it is so nice you were able to take the dogs with you.
When you mentioned Lala playing with the Wii it reminded me of this http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/superpiipii.html?cpg=70H
Aren’t the Japanese scary?
jeanne says
Happy Anniversary!
(When Clara comes back with the beer, could you remind her she still needs to help me with my taxes? kthxbai!)
Julie says
Happy Anniversary! Best wishes for many more.
Linda "K" says
I can’t believe it either and I’ve never met you – just follow along happily through the blog. And Digit the un-dead – can enough ever be said about the happiness of him being back? Reading your blog makes me happy!
alison says
Wow, time flies! Happy anniversary! I think this means you’re due for another Canadian trip. Have you heard of a little city called Montreal?
TheBon says
Happy anniversary you two!
Wendy says
Haha, you’re wife is funny. ๐ Bet you still see kittens when you look at them though.
Congratulations and happy anniversary, time flies when you’re having fun!
