26. The very first time I slow-danced was at my very first no direct-supervision basement party...
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
...and I was dancing with sweet, pretty Kathy T. and I believe
we were 12 or 13 years old and the song was "Hey Jude".
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
That wonderful, WONDERFUL ending that never ended.
.
.
.
.
.
.
I think we'da been happy if it HAD never ended... we might
very well STILL be dancing today.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Course... things might be a little... complicated.
.

28. Marching band music. We went to a small town Halloween parade, and
had a great time watching the little kids with their home made costumes (They had a great time, too).

Startted dating in October, married in January, had the wedding party in March, going on 18 years ago.

30. We were probably arguing over the radio station!
My wife likes mainstream country, eg, Reba, Garth, Zac Brown, etc

My tastes trend more towards janglepop, postpunk, and assorted indie bands.

Rarely do the twain meet...

33. you know,
I don't think I've ever gone on a real "date" in the sense of the word I have, where you go out someplace with somebody you barely know, experience a meal or some form of entertainment and then return home and go on about your own business.


did I mess anything? I feel mildly deprived.
