Kaye and I have been together for twenty-three years today. It’s never something that’s noted by anyone, though at least my mother has known the date for a good many years now. I feel pretty sure that she’s sent my brother and his wife anniversary cards since September, 1996. It’s not that I want any fuss. In practical terms, I’m somewhat relieved that it goes unnoticed. I’m somewhat reserved, and in this case, Kaye is more so. I’m happy, proud and lucky to have Kaye, and that’s the important thing by far. It’s just maddening somehow that other people don’t recognize us as a couple like any other. I guess that’s because there is no couple to match us.
If there is someone out there pulling the strings, I would like to say thank you.

hooray! congratulations. I look forward to being invited to the celebrations for your 50th.
Congratulations from me too. :-)
Thanks to you both. Your invitation for the 50th is being engraved right now, as 50 years from now I may not be able to find my feet . . . ;)
That is, what I meant to say was 27 years from now I may not be able to find my feet. The above comment attests to that. :P
