Happy Anniversary Bub!

June 4, 1997 Ryan and I officially became a couple. It was a bit of a hot debate at the time because I'd only been separated from my previous boyfriend for a few months and Ryan had been both of our friend. It caused a stir, I'm sorry to say, because it divided up the group of friends for a bit (kind of like after a divorce, no one wants to be disloyal to either side). Everyone tried to talk Ryan out of dating me and everyone said that it wouldn't last. But indeed it did. And has. And still does. And continues to do so.

On our first anniversary, we went to the Griffith Observatory and got crazy super stoned nutritious food and watched the Pink Floyd Laser Light Show. Ryan commemorated the event with a polaroid of me in the parking lot. Obviously, I had it going on. No wonder he was madly in love with me! I can't find a picture of him from that day, but I DO have one of him in an astronaut suit. Same difference, really.

It's been an awesome TWELVE years, bub! And I still love you! Can you believe it?! ;-)
