I’m on my way out to Europe, but yesterday was my 28th anniversary with Susie, and I wanna make sure everyone understands this (the following post from anniversary #26) is still the case. OxO, Jeffy

This is Susie Miller Tweedy (and me). I’m tempted to say that if you aren’t married to her then your wife is a piece of crap. But hearing her voice in my head, I’m thinking better of saying such a thing. See… even without consultation, she’s steering me toward a subtler and kinder way of saying what I want to say. Which all goes to show what a force she’s been in my effort to be a better person. What I really want to say is this…

After 26 years of marriage and around 30ish total years of going steady, I still can’t believe my good fortune. Somehow the smartest, coolest, and funniest woman alive thought enough of me to take my hand. I love her more every day and I wouldn’t be here without her. Happy Anniversary Sukierae! OxO

Here's a song I wrote for Susie a while back. It's called In a Sad Kinda Way.

I almost want to fight you since you almost said my wife is crap. Ha, ha… instead I’ll raise my glass and toast you two. Happy anniversary!
