Two Years Together
Sara and I have been together for exactly 2 years, today.
Our first date was at the Sherlock Holmes on Rice Howard Way, on one of the coldest nights in 2008. The cold snap continued for a week or two, and I was forced to spend the night at her place on only our second or third date because my car at the time was a piece of crap and wouldn’t start.
I have fond memories of that car.
Now, nothing untoward happened that night and, amazingly, my car started without a hitch the next morning. But that night was when I realized that there was more than just lust at work between the two of us (although, there was a lot of that…still is, too).
But back to that first date.
I still remember exactly what Sara looked like when she came to the front door of the place she was living in at the time. She was gorgeous, especially in contrast to the rough-looking dude who answered the door.
It was a Tuesday night, but we ended up staying at the bar until last call. I don’t think either one of us realized that it was that late. I certainly didn’t. Things just went that well. It was the best first date I’ve ever been on.
And the goodnight kiss. Well…let’s just say that it was a damn good kiss.
Happy anniversary, Sara. I love you.

Congratulations to you both!
Thanks, Mack.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! To many more happy years together….(raises a glass and toasts)…
xoxox
Thanks Rosemary. We decided we’d stick it out for at least two more years at dinner last night.
Congratulations to you both : )
Thanks Kyla.
awww snider that post is really sweet. you should write a handbook on how to treat the ladies. i am super honored that your anniversary photo is a pic of you two on my infamous sex sofa. why does my sofa bring you the action and not moi? ha! anyway, you are excellent and sarah is excellent and you two together is most terrifically excellent and i am happy for you! congrats!
Thanks HMP. I think we’re most terrifically excellent together, too.
As for the sex couch, I don’t know why it doesn’t bring you any action. Perhaps we should be more subtle about it and start calling it “the casting couch.” Do that, and the young wannabe stars will start lining up.
I love how you can see both of the bathrooms ; ).
