Feeling Lucky
by Scott Hardie on March 17, 2009
Yesterday was my 13th anniversary of dating Kelly. We've been through many ups and downs together, and those downs have to do with why we're not married yet, but I love her as much now as I ever have. Here are 13 things that have been a part my life for less time than we've been dating:
- The Internet.
- My cousin Vanessa, who's now in middle school.
- Paying taxes.
- Manhood. (Get your mind out of the gutter!)
- A high school diploma.
- JonBenet Ramsey, Theodore Kaczynski, Dolly the sheep, and other news figures of 1996.
- Having a brother.
- Voting.
- Sony PlayStation.
- Not living under my parents' roof.
- Chinese buffets.
- Every friend I have, except Lori.
- Knowing what love is.

I really like this list! Certainly puts things in perspective. It definitely is a heartwarming thought that you've been in love with Kelly longer than with Chinese buffets. Is Vanessa the little one we met in Pittsburgh in 2000? (Zippy disk!)

By now, the news is out that Kelly and I are engaged. We couldn't be happier about it! Here's the full story for anyone interested. Go »Atkins
I'm now in my fourth week on the Atkins diet. I had planned to write about it at the start and maybe once each week, but I've been so busy... dieting. Go »Spiders on Drugs
Thanks, Aaron. (link) Go »Milwaukee's Best
Today I learned a valuable lesson: Don't quote that line from Wayne's World about "mill-you-wock-AY" to a native of that city. It's like asking them to bring you a cheese wheel when they visit: You deserve a kick in the balls for it. I learned this while planning my visit to the city this weekend for beer, brats, Packers, and oh yeah, Matthew Preston. Go »More Hypocrisy
Well, now that I've written at length on TC about how I consider online videos an unpleasant medium, this is the perfect time to share some! This year's Lazy Sunday might be this SNL bit with Justin Timberlake and Andy Samburg. NSFW. Go »
