Today is our 20th First Date Anniversary. We are celebrating by him going to work and hanging out afterward with his girl friends and by me going out with my sister and bro-in-law.
Time can be an wretched adversary.
BUT.... time can't take away that amazing first date!
He showed up in his concert T to find out that I had to postpone our date to later in the evening because my friends and I were not finished rehearsing for Ms. Halley's Dance Recital the next evening.
To my amazement he decided to come and wait. He sat in the back of Oak Park Highschool's auditorium while we practiced such numbers as "Another Opening, Another Show" in our top hats.
Who is that guy, Tracy and Michelle asked as we were kicking our heels up?
"Ben."I smiled.
When we finally made it to the date, we ate Pizza Hut and then played mini golf at Fantasy Land. Who won our very first round of golf, well.... that depends on which of us you ask!
For many years, we continued this ritual of our first date on June 17th...
Then Pizza Hut closed.
Then Fantasy Land closed.
And then our romance closed.
Maybe time will stop being such a sh^t and at least turn the light back on for our romance~
