Canada Day Fireworks in the C.P.
Finally, an update.
I don't find myself having a lot to say these days. Perhaps this is because the summer sun wears me down, and the lethargy kicks in pretty early in the day. But, more likely than this, it is because I don't really have much of a life which would produce exciting things to talk about.
Last night Paul and I celebrated our fourth "anniversary". I use quotation marks here because I am well aware, thanks to some comments from others, that since we are not married we technically don't really have anniversaries. The word does, however, describe the reason for our celebrating( some sort of yearly recognition of our union), and so I use it freely:) Four years together and I can say that I still love him, and we still put up with eachother. This is good. It gives me drive for the many years to come:)
In other news, I was accepted into the intermediate program at Ottawa University which makes me happy. I think will enjoy teaching much more with older students.
So, summer is just flying by. I am looking forward to August as I am planning my very first keg party. Ooooo. Too bad I don't really know many people, and it will probably just be a small keg... but still, party= good.
And on that note I shall be off. After all it is Friday night, and I have some tv to be watchin'. (Grr I hate working weekends).
Promise I'll be back soon.

You so do not need to be married to have an "anniversery"...all "anviversery" means is another day, month, or year. I recently signed a card for a one year soberity anniversery. As for relationships, many non-married people have anniverseries - anniversery of meeting, first date, first kiss, when they decided they were going steady. And many people who live together but are not married, still concder themselves the same, and deserve an anniversery too, without quotations!!
I hope this doesn't sound blameful, rude, annoying or such, it is just a pet peeve of mine that I often feel like defending!! I have many anniverseries I celbrate or honour, including friendships, deaths, days of great sadness or great joy, and love...so please, celebrate without quotations...and congratulations!! 4 years is a big deal!!

I would say that I have to agree with Anonymous. lol. Happy Anniversary girl. Congrats. And tell Paul I said the same.
Luv Ya.
SF, I didn't say I was against celebrating non-wedding anniversaries. My comment was directed at those who felt that those were the only kind to celebrate. To them, a four year celebration of dating is an "anniversary", whereas for me, the quotations are obviously not necessary. The card I gave Paul said happy anniversary, and you can be sure both the day before, and after, I said "happy anniversary" to him numerous times:)
Hey daph, miss ya and if anyone besides paul and I was celebrating this milestone it would be you. You were there from the very beginning. Miss you! ?
