Wow. 19. That's a really, really long time. Not much longer and we'll have been married longer than how old I was when we took vows (21 but who's counting).

People always ask me how we've made it this long. And I have to be honest...sometimes separation is good. In our case, it's been many separations, some of them for many months. One of them for more than 12 months with a couple short visits thrown in.

But for me, when you have those separations it helps remind you what you like/miss about that person and in a lot of ways keeps the relationship fresh.

Enough about that.

Guess where we went tonight? Abuelo's!. The food there is SO damn good and very reasonable. I was given the choice of going out wherever I wanted, but really tonight this was the only choice for me. Low-key atmosphere (not loud like a lot of those steakhouses), excellent food, and fabulous dessert. They make a mean margarita too.

Excuse me while I go loll in my Mexican food coma. I'm sure Mr. Average and I will find some quiet time later tonight after we make Scytheboy go to bed. He's got school tomorrow. Yeah! The break's over!

I still keep thinking...wow...19 years. That's like forever, isn't it? I mean, seriously....
