This conflicts with Pi Day. I guess the two should be combined. ---

My wife and I will be celebrating this a day late, as we do every year. For some reason it just works out that way. Last night was my daughter’s winter choral concert and then my wife had a meeting for one of her volunteer organizations, so our evening didn’t work out too well. However, we’ve already exchanged texts this morning about tonight’s activities, so I know how we’ll be spending our ‘parent time’ after the kids are in bed. I love that woman. ---

She’s a rare one indeed. You’ve done well my fine sir. Its hard to find a happy medium in a marriage these days, but such an arrangement gets to the meat of the matter. She’s a little saucy I take it (and I hope such inclinations cut both ways). Unfortunately I took the other fork in the road marriage wise. But my plate is full anyways so I guess it don’t matter as I am of a rather tender disposition and such extravagances go against my grain as life has made me a grissled, well aged fat man. ---
