jbsegalI got married. It's not my wedding anniversary, however...that's still 2 days away.
On this day, 5 years ago, a local Justice Of The Peace came to our house and performed the legal ceremony in which Kimberly and I were married. (We had a JP do the ceremony because, as near as we could tell, the Pope couldn't get a license to solemnize a wedding in Virginia because he isn't a VA resident.)
It was a very nice ceremony...she had a small notebook chock full of wedding bits (or maybe it was full of all sorts of JP ceremony bits, but I don't know what else those would be...) and she pulled out a number of very nice sentiments that Kimberly, Wadlow and I would then procede to crib into our public ceremony 2 days later.
The whole thing was very simple and very nice. I remember that Ted, corwin, and Wadlow were there. I don't recall if anyone else was.
It was a little bit odd suddenly _being_ married. It was nice. My love and I, together, married, even if noone else knew it at that time and wouldn't for 2 more days.
5 years. Here's to 20x more than that. (Yeah, I'd like medical technology to step up a couple of increments..)

Date: 2002-09-25 06:07 pm (UTC)remember, we found out only 4 days before the wedding that Wadlow wouldn't be able to do it legally so we called the first name on the list and she married us two days before the wedding ... and we were a bit weirded out, not sure if we should wear our rings yet, not sure what we should wear for *this* ceremony ... and afterwards, corwin took us for a celebratory dinner at Maggiano's and all of us fit in one booth and ate and talked about how strange it was that now we were married but we didn't feel married yet because the wedding was still two days away :)
I love you! Happy Marriage Anniversary
