happy me day

A year-and-a-half ago, or thereabouts, when Michael turned 36, he was pretty excited. He felt that this numerical situation gave him license to act like three twelve-year-olds. This state of affairs was greatly enjoyed until it had to be given up for the new joy of being a prime number. I think this is some sort of super hero thing, to be divisible only by oneself. But I’m not sure. Ask me next year.

In any event, recently, the question arose between us what would happen when I turned 36, three twelve-year-olds not really being my thing. Michael offered the generous thought that since I had so graciously spent a year with three twelve-year-old boys, he would be willing to put up with two eighteen-year-old girls in his home and bed.

So, since I want more than anything to be a good wife, tonight, for Michael, I think I will borrow my parents’ car without asking, stay out late without calling, and when I do come home giggle really loudly and then puke on his shoes. If memory serves, that’s how two eighteen-year-old-girls behave, though I’m not certain it’s what he had in mind.

    Having suffered through Michael when he was one 12-year-old boy, I can appreciate how much you love him that you can put up with that tripled! I love him dearly, of course, but he was no picnic. God bless you for wanting to spend the rest of your life with him, and happy, happy birthday.
