St. Valentine’s Day
While neither the wife nor I are overly enamored of Valentine’s day, that Hallmark driven feast day of merchandising and consumerism that it is, I would like to take a moment to tell the world how much I love her.
She has stood by me during some sincerely dark times: the loss of my best friend, Katrina exile, the year of ten funerals, and my own times of being less than pleasant. After eight years together and fifteen months of marriage I am still thrilled every morning when I wake up to see her face on the pillow.
Whatever else may happen as long as we are together I will always have hope and I will always try to be the best person I can be for her.
Honey, I love you!

Jeezy Peez, Loki!
Way to make a grizzled old curmudeon tear up, dude.
You’re both very lucky.
But more you.
Best wishes,
LD

The cuteness is nearly nauseating … but yes, you done good. I love her as much as I love you, and that’s saying something!

How sentimental… Next month will be the 18 year anniversary of when me an d Leslie met. Let me tell ya, who has the best girlfriend? Two boxed sets of Tom Jones CDs. One of which included a bonus DVD with excerpts from his show. Six inch cross nestled in chest hair. Glinting belt buckle the size of Alaska. Pants so form fitting you could tell that he dresses to the left. What’s not to love?

Loki, I’m just getting caught up with my reading, so this comment may be a little late, but I still wanted to let you know how very moving your testament to your beloved is. Thanks for shouting it from the hilltops, so to speak, so that the rest of us can also be moved.
