25 years?

So, 25 years ago, life looked very different. First, 9/11 had just happened, and the world was still just trying to figure that out. Second, I hadn't written much, so the author dream/plan wasn't really in motion. Third, I was unemployed because I'd been laid off from my job. And fourth, I was engaged to be married.

I mean... who voluntarily chooses to get married in November in Canada? It's gotta be one of the grossest months. In our area, it's typically not cold enough for snow, so you don't have the glorious beauty of a snow covered world. But it's also after all the leaves have fallen, so you don't have the green of summer or the wonder of the changing leaves.

You kind of have cold, wet, muddy, dark... November.

But, my future wife and I thought that was the time to get married!

Now, 25 years later, 9/11 seems like a long time ago. I've written a little more than I had back then. I'm still somewhat unemployed... weird about that one... and I'm happy we got married in November. Actually, I'm just happy we got married!
