18 Years Ago Today

Picture = 1000 words. If LJ allowed me to post pics, I'd have even more to say.

Wow. How does it feel looking back from this distance?

And, what's up with pics posting? Are you not able to do it right now?

Surreal. Like it happened to some other person. 'Cept that person's ME...and boyhowdy have things (including me) changed since then. I've come a long long way from that special day. There's no way I envisioned my life now then.

The marriage didn't work out, but the ex is still a dear friend. In fact, he's coming over later today to use the 'puter to post grades 'cause they're having connectivity issues over there. Haven't decided whether I'm even gonna bring up the date and its significance.

And, what's up with pics posting? Are you not able to do it right now?


Correct. I can't post pics now. Dunno why not.

Wow! It's interesting to reflect on the changes in life as time passes...

Yep. I ground in time so dates're important to me. Today is indeed a reflective day...

I'm glad your path has lead to the crossing of mine with yours.

Dates are significant, so it's good that you don't forget 'em.

Moi, aussi. Oh, I'll be e-mailing you a pic from Sat night.

Oops. I don't have your e-mail address so can't mail you the pic.

I've come to think of such transitions as incarnations, kind of like when different actors play Dr. Who. (Or different hosts for the trill Dax.)

happy transition commemoration day. I'll bet there's a hallmark card for this kind of anniversary out there someplace. If there's not, there should be.

Thx. That's a nice way of looking at things like this. Re: Hallmark card oppo - HEE!

Oh, I can't tell the difference...

You're still as beautiful today as you are in that picture. :-)

*HUGS*

You're a dear. Ta'.

I only know what's true for me; that I am who I am today because of where I've been, what I've done and who I've chosen to have in my life. Would I go back? No. Would I change it if I could? Surprisingly, not so much.

I, for one, certainly love the person you are today.
