The Power (of Love)
Megan and Rob on their wedding day, July 1, 1991
I’m taking advantage of the remaining Hour of Power (well, half hour) before it goes out for the rest of the day. Now that Mark has nearly finished the Great Water Project, PG&E has decided to celebrate Megan and Rob’s anniversary by putting up a new pole on the Ridge, leaving us all powerless all day.
Suddenly, it seems like a good time to go to town and meander some errands!
Power or no power, I hope we can celebrate Megan and Rob’s anniversary. I’ll get a bottle of something, my entire liquor supply having been demolished in the Great Crash of ’10, and if Megan can actually chew actual food, maybe we can have something nice for dinner. Doesn’t that sound like the kind of party we should be having another 19 years down the road?!
I do have a quite fabulous card for them, anyway. Given Megan’s fascination with all things medical and Rob’s with horror movies, what could be better than this? Also I know he’ll adore the scratch-off part. I had the fun of writing on the black envelope and back of the card in gold ink, too.
I really admire Megan and Rob, both individually and as a couple. They have weathered tremendous storms together over the years, things that break many couples up, but when things get bad, my sister says, they “hold each other’s hands and walk through it together.” Happy anniversary, you two. I love you so much.
