My DH came home tonight
wearing a baseball cap.
When he took off the hat two numbers were glued
to his forehead.
3 0
I looked at it and went, "WHAT?"
He just stared at me.
"WHAT???? What does 30 mean?"
"What's the date today?"
"September 15th. So?"
I met DH 30 years ago today at the Starry Plough, an Irish Pub, in Berkeley, CA.
He was the good looking guy in an off white waffle material three button shirt
with holes in it
and blue jeans with holes in the knees
across the room
I smiled at.
He came over and asked "Is anybody sitting here?"
"No"
Before he left that evening he got my phone number
and we've been dating ever since.
;-)
Hopefully I'll remember 31!
Oh how sweet. What a romantic. :))
ReplyDeleteHappy 30 years together.
sometimes guys can be so romantic...other times....Not so much.
