Spending My Time Wisely

(NOTE: Based on time elapsed since the posting of this entry, the BS-o-meter calculates this is 15.678% likely to be something that Ferrett now regrets.)

Where was I at 12:12:12 today?
Curled up in my wife’s arms.  Just the way we’d been on December 31st, 1999, 11:59:59, watching the numbers change. No cell phone, no Internet, just ensured that we were together for this transition, as we’ll be together for all transitions.
It’s a tiny, foolish thing.  But our lives are knitted together by tiny, foolish things.  We embrace them, just as we embrace each other when the last-of-a-lifetime event slips by so noisily.
Love you, sweetie.  More than meatballs.
