anniversary

today is the 16th anniversary of my wife and my engagement.  the day before, we saw each other for the first time in 30 years.  yes, we became engaged the day after seeing each other.  no, i usually don't work that fast.  we were highschool sweethearts.  i remembered how good a person she was.  besides, i have several $500 phone bills, illustating courting by phone.  you either talk or listh.  you don't just hold sweaty palms and watch some movie neither likes.  some communication!                     my sister bet it wouldn't last six weeks.  last laugh to us this time.

thanks to all who wished me well during my hospital stay.  i ended up with ewo stays. after i went home and came back because i was so infected.  i almost didn't make it.  i had a temp of 104.4, a blood pressure of 60/40 and a blood sugar of 39.  for those who don't know these numbers, none is compatible with human life.  as a result, i had an "out of body" experience.  interesting.  as i heal, i will try to be more faithful about answearing comments, etc.  again, thanks to all!
