Another Anniversary

I thought today was the one year anniversary (or anti-anniversary?) of my divorce, but my blog archives have proven me wrong - it was yesterday. Oh well, so much for doing a comtemplative post The Day Of. As a matter of fact, I’m not sure I feel like doing a comtemplative post at all - or at least, not something lengthy. Insert here the obligatory observations about how much can change in one year’s time, and how we can never really anticipate what the future (even just a year in the future) will bring.

You know how it goes. When I was 18, I never imagined I’d be married at 21. When I was 21, I never imagined I’d be divorced at 24. And so on and so forth.

Last year I had a trip to Boston (and a Red Sox penant) for my birthday - and the concomitant ruminations about the quarter of a century milestone. This year I’ll have a new job*, presumably some sort of celebration with the GDBF and (hopefully) other ATL friends I’ve met in the last year, and some ruminations on the “quarter of a century, plus one” milestone.

* Ed. note: More on this later. But not too much more - dooce factor, you know.

    If it means anything … the Red Sox are folding on me. Blown a five-game lead and now trail the damn Yankees by half-a-game.

    Congrats on the job indeed.

    And, I think that “the dooce factor” could easily work its way into blogging slang!!! Clever!

    Good luckies on the new job. “Dooce” already is slangified.

    And at 25, you never imagined you’d be married again at 27… To a KILLER ROBOT ASSASSIN FROM MEXICO!

    Oh, sorry– I’ve said too much. You’ll find out soon enough…
