So last night at the wedding reception they did this "longest married" couple dance thingy. We didn't get up because Linny's ankle was killing her - plus we figured we didn't stand a chance anyway.
Anyone married less than one day - sit down. Bride and groom sit down. *chuckle-chuckle*
Anyone married less than five years - crowd thins.
Anyone married less than ten years - etc.
Goes on until the last remaining couple is at 32 years. Big applause.
Linda and I are looking at each other aghast. We just celebrated our 33rd!!!
WTF?
