Committed? Marraige gives that word a whole other meaning...

[smeddley]

Today, I have been married for 10 years. A decade! Seems like forever. Or only yesterday. Whichever seems more complimentary, I suppose.

Thus far I have celebrated by:

Staying home from work to have my crack epoxied
Reading a book
Baking cupcakes using root beer and a white cake mix (not a root boozy as I'd have liked)
Playing far too much Jewel Quest
Napping

Also, there are presents, naturally. When asked what I wanted for my anniversary, I replied 'nothing'. Because we're already spending so much money on the basement and all, you know. So hubby said he would, indeed, get me nothing. We're going to get it this weekend.

My 'nothing'.

Get it? *snicker* That hubby of mine, so clever!

Also, the obligatory sparkly.

... I don't get it! I am dull, lol.

And HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

Congratulations, you're not a physics geek! :)

It's a vacuum. ;) As in, a place where there is nothing, not even air.

[crazy-in-lost.livejournal.com]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Yeah, I'm just a loser. And I'm taking AP Physics next school year! ...

You just have to put your brain into 'pun' mode. Trust me, after 10 years, mine is permanently stuck there! :)

Congratulations on 10 years!!

Thanks! He's a card, that's for sure. :)

[clare-dragonfly.livejournal.com]

Aww, congratulations! Hey, it's my mom's best friend's wedding anniversary too...

Hee hee, it's a vacuum.

And that necklace is gorgeous!

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

He has a knack for picking out pretty jewelry, I'll give him that!

[clare-dragonfly.livejournal.com]

And Gmail duly advertises to me jewelry made from your own horse's hair. o.0 I think it's implying that your hubby is a horse.

*thinks long and hard*

*decides to be nice on today of all days*

Gotta love that targeted advertising! But at least you're getting e-mails. *grump* Not even my Message Center is working!

10 years! Happy anniversary! =D

Though I'm not entirely sure how you two can be excited over a vacuum...maybe it's an adult thing. ;)

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

It's a 'if I have to lug that vacuum up and down two flights of stairs for the rest of my life I'm going to scream!' kind of thing. ;)

Since we're going to have the basement fully carpeted, I didn't want to have to drag my one (old) vacuum up and down two flights of stairs. Sure, I'll still have to get one from up or down stairs to vacuum the middle floor, but there's not much carpeting there, anyway.

But yeah, it's an adult thing, too. I was also ridiculously happy about a new washer and dryer!

You know, getting your crack epoxied sounds like it might get a mite uncomfortable after a few days. Not to mention, there's a lot of fun to be missed out on.

That necklace is indeed sparkly, and awesome. I ♥ black pearls.

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

I was wondering when someone was going to comment on that! ;)

I really only like the black pearls. I've never been as fond of the garden variety white strand.

[sv-galena.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on the 10-yr thing. Hard to believe it's been that long. And you got a sparkly, too? He's just too good.

And while ten years may be a bunch of years, it's not really a lot of time.

Has hubby learned the proper answer to, "How long have you been married?" The answer is, "Not long enough." At least when the little lady is within earshot.

I agree that there's nothing like a good brisk nap to celebrate a special day.

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

I think his answer is, "Uh, erm, well, I'm not sure..." But I can't complain. At least he remembers when our anniversary is!

Napping = the best thing EVER.

[cdpeck.livejournal.com]

Happy anniversay! I hope that black pearl isn't cursed! Get it? Eh? Eh?

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

I guess it depends on the curse... But I doubt it. And even if it was, I could just sue Helzberg and live happily ever after...

[desolateangel83.livejournal.com]

Happy anniversary!

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

Why, thank you! :)

Happy anniversary!!!

[revoked-soul.livejournal.com]

Yay! Vacuums and pretty things. A very happy anniversary to you!

I see I've already been beaten to the crack joke, so I'll let it lie. ;)

Re: Happy anniversary!!!

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

I should have that as a rule... one bad joke per entry... ;)

[oneworldvision.livejournal.com]

Happy anniversary! XD

Also: Ha! and Ooh, shiny!

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

I'm torn - the shiny is prettier, but the vacuum makes me really happy... :D

[gelsey.livejournal.com]

LOL, you're nothing was great ;)

Happy anniversary!

And wow, he has good taste in sparklies.

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

He does have good taste. I have honestly loved everything he's bought me, and none of it was stuff I'd picked out beforehand!

[a-l-p-h-a-b-e-t.livejournal.com]

Congrats!

Yup, nice sparkly... If you could, give em a kick in the ass for raising the bar for the rest of us guys... :/

My wife and I just celebrated our 3rd anniversary, spending it at the lung health clinic watching her force all the air out of her lungs for a stupid asthma measurement. Made all the more enjoyable because she had pnumonia (or as I call it Pug-nomia). At least we had a nice dinner... :)

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

He get regular boots up the butt, I'll add that to the list of reasons... ;)

Wow, that sucks. Here's to a better 4th... and 5th... and 6th... (and so on)

I had to do that breathing thing after my surgery. It's quite annoying! I feel for her (and because I can't help myself...) and not just because she's married to you... :O Oh no I didn't! ;)

[icecat.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!

And HAHAHAHAHA that's the best 'nothing' present I've ever heard of! :D

[smeddley.livejournal.com]

He gets bonus points for clever, that's for sure. The flip side is he's a wise-ass, so I have to put up with that, too... :P

[mmmontserrat.livejournal.com]

Congratulations~!~
