Ryan and I got married one year ago today. The year has passed quickly, and it’s been a good one great one. I am so lucky to be married to Ryan. I know that sounds mushy and cliche, but I really feel that way.
Our plans for the day are to do some light cleaning this morning, then go out for brunch/lunch, catch a movie, and then spend the evening hanging out at home and watching a movie or catching up on TV (we have several episodes of Arrested Development on DVD that we need to watch). Nothing super-exciting, but a nice, relaxing day, which is what we want.
Happy anniversary, honey!
Seriously, did you just say that?

Ryan and I were catching up on our Jeopardy episodes tonight, and the final Jeopardy question was asking what country that the US does NOT have diplomatic relations with is the furthest North. My guess was North Korea, and Ryan mentioned Cuba. I asked him if we have diplomatic relations with North Korea, thinking that would be the only way he wouldn’t pick that answer. And this is what he said (there is some paraphrasing, as this was at least an hour ago and I can’t remember anything):
Ryan: I think Cuba might be further north than North Korea.
Me: *stunned silence* “Are you serious?? North Korea is next to Russia. Near Alaska. Remember?
There was then some discussion of how he didn’t remember exactly where North Korea was in relation to the equator. After I mentioned that it was north of Japan (which I think is probably also north of Cuba) he seemed to realize what he was saying.
Obviously geographic spatial memory is not at the top of his list of skills. Good thing he’s smart in other ways and I love him anyway. But seriously. I won’t be forgetting that any time soon. It will be good to bring up the next time I say something dumb. Which will probably happen tomorrow. Or tonight. I haven’t fallen asleep yet, so there’s still time.
