Those are the memory nights. The rest is life. I don't know. My relationships are on a timer...5 years and they are done. You have to ask the married folks. Good night

Hey, jp, Tonight just before I posted, and after all the guests went to bed, Dan and I put the top down on my Sebring and took off-- ostensibly to deliver some graduation presents to some of my favorite seniors, but mostly just to enjoy the peace of the night after the adrenalin and emotion of this charged graduation evening. We've been married 21 years. We know most of all there is to know about each other. We predict each other's thoughts and statements. THe moon was full but hazy, the evening humid but cool. We left the gifts in mailboxes and drank a glass of wine as we drove in silence through the night. And between us lay an ocean of shared experiences, tears, and joys. I don't pretend that these years have all been marital bliss or parental perfection. But I'm looking at the string of them and thinking what a wonderful, incredible span this has been of all that makes a life full and complete. You are so right that we forget the beauty of special moments in the fatigue and trivia of daily life. I know Dan and I often do. But then there are nights like tonight, when it all seems to make sense, when the sum means more than all the small parts. I must go to bed! I have no idea what I'm talking about!!!!! And Ammo has a basketball game at 9. Sometimes you just get filled with all this emotion and it froths over without a lot of substance!@
