15 Years of Wedded Bliss
I was showing our wedding picture to a Thai neighbor yesterday when it dawned on me that today was going to be our our 15th wedding anniversary. Our friends just laughed at us, what a thing to forget! We forget all kinds of things, living here. Anyway, we asked Gee to watch the kids so we could go out on a little date tonight. She brought her little son, Pooh (As in Winnie the Pooh,) is his Thai nickname and they all had fun together. Jasper played the toy piano and Pooh danced around. They watched Tom & Jerry cartoons & ate fried chicken, Thai style, with rice.
We, meanwhile, went to a local restaurant, The Viking Steak House, and had Jaegerschnitzel, my favorite dish there. 550 Baht seemed expensive for our meal until I realized that it was cheap for American standards, $15 for the total bill. Then we went out to buy milk and some other things for the house. We weren't even gone 2 hours, which we both found pretty funny. We thought about taking a romantic walk, on the beach even, but we just felt tired and wanted to come home. Pathetic, I know! But our marriage is strong and we love each other very much, so that's what counts. We'll take a romantic walk on the beach some other year, I think.
