Complex Numbers

Five years

Last Saturday was our fifth anniversary.

I like to make jokes like it feels like fifty, but the reality is the time's really flown by.

We went to Richmond - about an hour drive from here - and spent the day in Maymont Park. Maymont was the place where some idiot kid stuck her hand into the bear enclosure a while back and got it bit, resulting in a minor wound to the kid and the end of the bears' life because no one knew which bear bit her, or whether they had rabies or not. It seems someone's replaced the bears with new ones.

Then we went down to Shockoe Bottom, one of the oldest areas of Richmond and home of many great evening activities. After dinner (Havana 59 is awesome, if you're ever in Richmond) we did a walking tour of haunted sites in Shockoe. Now that was cool - didn't see any ghosts, of course, but the stories were fascinating. It's good to have an anniversary near Halloween so we get to do spooky shit like that.

And yeah, I haven't been around as much lately. Just been busy with other stuff, and not in any kind of mood to write - at least not for public consumption. But these things come in phases, and I'm sure I'll be around more soon.
