We've been referring to it as our Third Anniversary with our friends, but I started to think this week that--if that is our Anniversary, then what will we call it after we have a wedding? Not that we've got one of those in our immediate future, since technically we can't have a wedding. But... well... if we have a commitment ceremony/ gay wedding, then we'll have to start counting again. And what will we call the 28th of August?
We had a mostly normal Thursday, all things considered. He went to work, I stayed home, ran errands, and job searched. The biggest change was that we met up for Happy Hour with a friend of ours who was celebrating her last day of work. Yep. One more person I can now make plans to go to lunch with--since we have the time (if not the money). But I have to admit that it was a glorious afternoon in downtown Minneapolis, sunny and with a light breeze, and we sat outside of The Local Irish Pub for a couple of hours and had a really nice time.
A little after 6, my partner and I left to go to dinner and headed into "NorthEast" Mineapolis for dinner at Erte--one of our favorite places to eat. He had Top Sirloin and hashbrowns, I had the Faux Fried Chicken (yes, again--I can't ever get myself to choose anything else because it's just SO good!). And on the way home I picked up a French Silk Pie from Lund's for dessert. It was great, but the evening also included me watching my partner pack for a long Labor Day weekend trip to Missouri. (Yes... I'm looking for sympathy, here.)
We finished the night by heading for bed and spooning ourselves to sleep. (Or something like that.) I know that it sounds really boring, but it was a great day and a wonderful evening. And it makes me wonder what we'll get to call the celebration of the day we met once we have a chance to marry. (But SHHHHH don't tell him... He doesn't know that I'm contemplating the whole "stand in front of god and everyone in tuxes" event...)
