When You’re Married A Billion Years, And Still Dancing

On Sep. 23, Val & Ken celebrate 22 years of wedded bliss (oxymoron). We’ve loved and hated. Fought and made up. Created life and mourned death. He’s seen the ice-queen and she-devil, but still looks at me the same way I look at chocolate cake. Here’s a few reasons why:

❤ When we first met, the chemistry was magic. XX + XY = Triple XXX

❤ Neither of us like marital confrontation. When Val realizes… Ah shit, I caught the feelings, it always ends up like this:

Val: We need to talk about our relationship.
Ken: Taco ‘bout feelings? Jeez, I’m hungry.
Val: Yeah, I could eat.

❤ We use humour as a safety valve, especially when life isn’t funny.

❤ Neither of us had ever changed a diaper. We commiserated over the bum rap, and baby ass explosions.

❤ We banded together by recognizing the children were our common enemy.

❤ We both suspected our 3 year old toddler was a walking, talking middle finger.

❤ We were cool throwing a towel on top of peed-on sheets and racing back to bed.

❤ We’re aware you need to complete yourself, before you can complete each other.

❤ Ken keeps Val young by a six year age difference. In 1980 while she graduated high school, he was sleeping on Star Wars sheets.

❤ We’ve alphabetically memorized each other’s trigger points.

❤ Ken relates easily with women. Almost like he has a mangina.

❤ Sometimes we wrestle with our demons. Sometimes we snuggle.

❤ We survive by having a short memory.

❤ Ken’s lucky, but Val’s really lucky. (submitted by KJM)

    Happy 22!! Love the post. So accurate, but Ken, you are very, very lucky. 22 years ago on Saturday I remember watching Val leave the church for pics with her bridesmaids and you in a separate car with your groomsmen. A match made in heaven!!

    Congratulations you two wild and crazy kids! Here’s a little quote that I thought you might enjoy ….”A marriage anniversary is the celebration of love, trust, partnership, tolerance and tenacity. The order varies for any given year.”
    All the best!
