Today is my 9th anniversary

People are celebrating things left and right, and I almost forgot...today marks the ninth year my husband and I have been together. Of course, he's up in the mine instead of here, so I can't celebrate properly, but sheesh! Nine years already? Where has the time gone? And how is it possible we are both still alive?

Well... happy anniversary!
But also, Are we even allowed to do this? I thought these kinds of threads were banned?

I think the ones that are banned are the post count celebrations?

In any case, rather than make this thread all about me, puleez people list how long you've been with your current significant other:)

Hehe...I've been around too many French people lately... I read the title of the thread and thought '9th anniversaire?? No way!' ;)

Congratulations on your anniversary :fluffle:

Here, have some chocolate!

For those who are interested, here (http://www.chipublib.org/008subject/005genref/giswedding.html) is the traditional and modern list of gifts for anniversaries (The South Islands got it exactly right!).

We don't bother getting each other gifts. When we want things, we aren't coy, we buy them ourselves:) Usually to celebrate we just go out for a seafood dinner at our 'anniversary restaurant' and then get drunk.

Hehehehee...actually, it sounds a bit like that in Spanish too...but I can't think of another way to word it in English so that people understand, and I figured people would understand once they read the first post anyway! Or think I was an incredibly smart and precarious 9 year old.

You've been married 9 years, and still get drunk!?

Do you have any sisters?

Hey Sin- Happy Anniversary!!
Time does fly once you have kids, huh?

Hope husbands home soon so you can celebrate properly.

Although I had all the ingredients for an exceptional celebratory meal in the house last night, my wife opted to all go out to a new Japanese hibachi in town. It was excellent!!!
Then we put the kids to bed, lit a fire and watched a rented movie.

Tonight, I'll cook the meat and shrimp at home, served on the new china I bought her/us.

Best wishes!!

Don't worry, I plan on continuing to get drunk until I'm too dead to bother.

I'd prefer a quite bath over any sort of gift right now....no kids banging on the door, no husband asking how long I should heat up their food...no phonecalls, no nothing. A long bath seems like something from long, long ago, maybe in a former lifetime...*sigh*

1. Happy Anniversary! All you married peoples on here having anniversaries are making me jealous.
2. In response to your other half-question/half-statement, my fiancée and I have been together for four and one-half years (today, actually).
3. Enjoy that bath of yours, if it ever comes.

Happy Anniversary!! (and the same goes to CL)

My boyfriend and I have been together for 4 years and 4 months (minus 3 days). We moved into together 2 1/2 years ago, and moved into our house almost exactly a year ago (end of of October last year).

Hey, since we're talking about people being together for extended periods of time, here's a question: How do you split up the major holidays?

Ever since our first year together, where we both ended up traveling the length of GA at least twice, we've made our families take turns. Each year, one family gets Thanksgiving and the other gets Christmas. This year, it's my family's turn to get Thanksgiving (so I don't get to see my mum on Christmas =( Last year was really crazy. We did Thanksgiving with his parents, Christmas with mine, and then New Year's all the way out in Seattle with my father and his family.

Happy anniversary!

I sent you a card and everything, did you get it, but I didn't get my invitation to the dinner, but I seen it's been delayed. That sucks.

oh oh, lemme put it in perspective. The moon has moved 9 inches further away in this time! 9 inches! also it's been 3,287 days of togetherness. (or HALF MY LIFETIME.) Just under a decade!

Have a good one, oldster. :P

Marriage cannot survive without a healthy amount of effort, compassion and understanding. You two must have a strong relationship.

Congratulations on your anniversary. Nine years is quite some time. :)

Fine, but I get to dance a merry jig no less then three times a week.

No less than, and perhaps in excess of thrice weekly is fine...but only if you don't wear yourself out and make yourself useless to me.

You're right. Having already worked off that energy two hours ago, and it doesnt feel like sleep is coming, I'm doing this and reading.

Last night, a Great Horned Owl woke me at 3am. I'm going to take a walk shortly, hoping to hear him again.

Well, enjoy your date with the horny owl. I get to sleep with little brats kicking me in the ribs and elbowing me in the face. I don't get to work that energy off for two weeks...unless I actually find a 'stand in' as my husband has been jokingly/not jokingly suggesting...and not one with batteries this time:)

Come on- I thought you might appreciate that. I called it and had it respond, which I think is really cool. I also have a pair of ravens in a large pine nearby. I walk out and "CAW!" and they respond. My wife thinks its nuts.

There is no reason for your kids to be sleeping in your bed all the time. Its disruptive to you and them. On occaision is one thing, but its an exception, not a rule.

Stand in...hmmm. Very tempting, Sin. I dont know how well you'd handle the emotional aspects of it,though. Jealousy, constant daydreaming to the point of distraction....etc

You know what'd be really crazy? If you had actually posted that from outside his door - like on a wi-fi laptop. That'd be seriously freaky if you opened the door and blah! There Sin was. Although it'd be a pretty cool thing as well, just... odd.
