Yesterday Bruce and I celebrated our twelfth wedding anniversary and, saints be praised, the day was very different from our disasterous jaunt to Santa Cruz several weeks back (bumper to bumper traffic and going through hell and a day finding a place to finally park the car).
We set our sights considerably lower for our anniversary outing. As I had to get my blood drawn at the clinic lab, we decided to go down together to get that taken care of and then have lunch and do some shopping. The blood draw went very quickly (no waiting!), and then we settled down for an amazing lunch at Osaka Sushi. The meal was everything a good meal should be -- authentic, unpretentious and delicious, with quick service. Afterwards we steeled ourselves for shopping for household staples at the Costco mega-store. Even that was fun, with lots of reasons to laugh.
And that was our anniversary: a humble enough sort of day, and yet everything that a day spent with one's best friend for life should be.
