On this day...

Rewind to one year ago today...

6:50 A.M. -

Rick: Bye honey, see you at lunch...love you.

Me: Ah, bye....hmmmm

10:00 A.M.- (Phone conversation)

Rick: Hi Honey, just called to say "I love you"

Me: Ah, I love you too.

Rick: See you at lunch.

Me: Ah, okay....hmmmm

Noon

Rick: Hi....follows with a big kiss and hug-eats, goes outside to play with the dog

Rick: Gotta go...love you.

Me: Ah, love you too....hmmmm

2:00 P.M. (via phone)

Rick: Hi...just thinking about you.

Me: Ah, me too

Rick: blah, blah, blah...gotta go, love you

Me: Ah, love you too... hmmm

At this point I call my sister's cell...YOU AREN'T GOING TO BELIEVE THIS! She suggests the following; E-mail the above picture with this text:

Wedding dress: $900

Cake: $500

Forgetting your anniversary and your wife still loves you...priceless!

So, I do and HIS COMPANY'S FIREWALL BLOCKS IT! How do I know this? Well, when he comes home around six he's still clueless. He walks in gives me a huge hug and kiss and say's "I love you...the garage looks great".

Yup, I spent the afternoon cleaning the garage...I'm good.

Me: Did you get my e-mail?

Rick: No, what was it?

Me: I'll print it out for you...

Now, trust me when I tell you there aren't any words to describe the look on his face. Suffice it to say he resembled someone who's heart just lodged in their throat blocking any words from exiting except for "Oh, my God...I'm so sorry".

Fast forward to this morning....

6:50 A.M.

Rick: Bye Honey, I love you...HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Me: Me too!

Wanna know why I wasn't really, really mad...lets read between the lines shall we? This guy called and told me he loved me numerous times just because, oh, I don't know it was Wednesday?...not because of any special reason. That's cool...

Happy 10th Anniversary...I love you!
