Mr. Rose!

Tomorrow is my beloved husband's birthday. And Saturday is our anniversary. We've been together 33 years. Holy shit--I'm OLD!!! No, no, not that old, I was a child bride. I was 20 17 12 9...I was a youthful 25. *koff* Actually, I did worry I was marrying too young at the time, which was weird because to the rest of the world, I was kind of old. (Those were the Dark Ages, full of really stupid people as opposed to now-a-days. These days, the world is full of stupid, socially accepted racist-asshole-bigots. But that's a post for another day.)

So, 33 years later and it's weird, really weird, that you can know someone that long and get just as much pleasure out of looking at them, touching them, hearing them laugh, as you did the very first time. He makes me feel like a pretty cool person, makes me feel cute. :)

Happy Birthday, my darling Mr. Rose! And thanks for marrying me, that was a good idea that worked out really well--for me at least! *bigcheesygrin*

We're coming up on 22 years and it's increasingly unbelievable. At some point soon HALF my life with him.

I wish you the best day and many more years with your man. :)

Thank you so much! ♥

It's wild to think I've been with him longer than I lived with my family! Congrats to you guys too--22 years is amazing! *G*

I'll fix that for you, 15..14 1/2 :wink:

The difference is that now we can see their asshole-ish ways via social media instead of one-on-one. I guess that's progress (?)

And it's a blessing and a treasure.

Happy birthday to Mr. Rose!

Dawny, there are some days where I believe that I'm about to take to the streets like a crazy woman. What the hell--I knew when we elected the Prez, things would get way worse before they got better racism-wise--only the fools patted themselves on the back and said it was a new era--but I don't know. It's like it's fashionable to be a privileged, clueless, racist dick whether you have one or not.

Okay, I'm going to take a breath here and concentrate on being a motherfucking lady.

No, hell with being a lady, let me go grab Mr. R and lock the bedroom door for the next few hours. It's his birthday after all. ;)

Sadly it's true. It's like racist Whack-a-mole. Just when one gets smacked down for their asinine opinions two are popping up right behind them. But boy do I love when the mallet falls on their head squashing them with logic and some schooling.

Plays Ginuwine's "Pony" in your honor!

Congratulations!!! You are so lucky to have found your other half. I love hearing about happily married people. The best day of my life was the day I met my husband, but sometimes I feel like I'm part of a very small minority.

Here's to another 33 wonderful years and big b-day wishes to Mr. R.

It's a great thing to find the one you'll love forever, but maybe we're in the minority because it is a lot of work to keep it that way--at least in the beginning. ;)

I gave him his birthday wishes--as usual he was adorably befuddled but very pleased! :D

Hey, happy birthday to your man, The Man!

(Although, frankly, I hope he kind of stays away from lj. Maybe this post is okay, but, knowing this crowd of awesome weirdos you've accumulated, you'd still probably better censor some shit here--delicate male constitution and all that. I hear they faint a lot at women-things. Is that true? XD)

Also, LOVE YOU! Congratulations on having, from all indications, impeccable taste, hon! Here's to 33 more years of marital bliss, you whippersnapper of a 16 year old!

LOL! Everybody behaved--sadly! *GGG*

Ooooo, should I be talking to you here, underage lil innocent that I am?

Happy anniversary!! Marrying in the early-mid 20's used to be the norm, but now I think people wait longer. I married Becca's dad at 23 and he was 30. While we're no longer married, we're still really close, which makes me happy :-).

ETA: Happy birthday to him, too!!!

It's good to have a good relationship with the ex--well done! :)

And thank you--he was all pleased--it's so cute!

Hope Mr. R. has a lovely B-day and you both have an awesome anniversary day. :D You're just too adorable when you gush about Mr. R. *g*

BTW.... there just may be something coming for you. MWHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!!

THANK YOU YOU ARE THE BEST, THE VERY, VERY BEST!!!

BG let out a high pitched scream of joy--did you hear it? She loved the scarf, absolutely loved it, and wore it until she went all red and almost passed out--it's still hot down here, lol! The color is fabulous, just really pretty. You couldn't have picked a better color if you tried! You scored big, my dear! :)

The holders were so cool and I totally saw the T-Rex!!! You crazy kid you! Thank you again, you are too good to me! *praying to get off my butt and go to the post office, with your package, oy!*

[identity profile] rosy5000.livejournal.com 2012-09-15 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
YAAAY!!! I'm so glad that BG loved her scarf. :D Though, not good that she ran around with it on in the heat. lol

I'm sooooo happy that you could see the T-Rex! Some of those patterns are hard to see. I found that pattern and just HAD to make it for you. *g*

*lots and lots of hugs* ♥

Sweetie, I'm cutting in to say I think of you all the time when I'm driving my car. It's getting pretty faded now but my Superman S swings happily from my rear view mirror and it has ever since you sent it to me. :)
*hugs*

[identity profile] rosy5000.livejournal.com 2012-09-16 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
Aww! I'm so glad to hear your Superman S is still hanging out in your car. :) It makes me feel good when people like what I make for them. Makes it all worth it. :D *hugs* ♥

We're at 34 years now, sweetie. I was 22 and Lee was 20 when we got married. It's still so wonderful to be married to my best friend. We still get just as sappy with each other now as we ever did. I'm so glad that you were lucky enough to find your heart with Mr Roxy like I did with Lee. :)

As for the not so thinly veiled bigotry floating around out there right now, it sickens me, more and more all the time. Would any of these idiots be calling for our president to prove his citizenship still, after almost four freaking years, if he were white?

*hugs you so hard*

Oh, you guys were little babies when you got married!! AWWWWWWWW!!! It is a wonderful thing to be married to your very best friend! :)

We were! Thankfully we were smart enough even then to recognize it when the best thing ever happened to us. :-)
