Monica's fortune cookie read:
10 whole years! My second anniversary is here in like a month and some change.
Eh, it goes by quick. But not in a bad way.
My first marriage ended in divorce, but the second one stuck. I think the best part of my current marriage is that I honestly don't know which actual day is our anniversary, and neither does he. Its in late June though. I keep count of the actual number of years by tracking our oldest's birthday, because he's a year older than our marriage.

I remember that our dating anniversary is the first weekend in November because he got t-boned on his way to vote in the 2012 election the following Tuesday. We had gone on our first date in that car before it got wrecked.
I remember our wedding anniversary because I chose National Taco Day because I don't know how people pick a wedding date.

For traditional weddings, it's relatively simple:
Nice people pick a Saturday. Most convenient for all involved, but most expensive.
Cheap people pick a Sunday. Still on a weekend, but done more as a cost-saving measure than anything else.
People who probably shouldn't be spending a lot of money on a big wedding pick a weekday. Again, really inconvenient for the guests, but saves the couple a lot of money.
Complete assholes pick a holiday. I mean, I could see Halloween if you're really into it, and you allow your guests to come in costumes, but no one wants to attend a 4th of July wedding. Or a Memorial Day wedding. Or Arbor Day? Seriously, fuck you.

I'm kicking myself now for not asking you these questions when I got engaged.

Damn--I wish I'd thought of National Taco Day! We picked the Summer Solstice because it seemed easy to remember. Just hit 27 years. Bloodsage fucked around with this message on 08-25-2016 at 10:47 AM.
