Head Tale

TV game shows
always get their contestants to give a pithy piece of trivia about
themselves during the interview portion of the show.  Here's what
I would tell Alex Trebeck:

Alex: “It says here that you married the same woman three times.  How does that happen?”
Me: “Well, Alex.  My wife and I wanted to get married in Mexico
but there was a lot of red tape and expense involved in doing
that.  So we got married by a Justice of the Peace in our living
room with only a couple friends in attendance.  Then we had a
ceremony on the beach in Mexico a month later.  Then, when we
returned to Canada, we had a wedding reception for all our family and
friends who couldn't be in Mexico with us.”
Alex: “That sounds like a man's worst nightmare.  How do you keep track of your anniversary date?”
Me:  “It's actually pretty handy.  We officially count the
Mexico ceremony as our wedding date.  But if I forget that one, I
have two other chances to fix things!”

Happy Anniversary one day in advance, Shea!

NP: “You and the Candles” –
Hawksley Workman (easily my favourite song off his new album although
the pause for laughter at the start is still a bit weird to me.) 

Classmate of the Day: Paul
Slater for suggesting that everybody go for “Second Last Night of
Reading Week” drinks tonight.  I replied to suggest Under the Volcano,
a local Mexican restaurant, selfishly because Shea and I are already going there for our
anniversary supper but also because they have Ranchero music as
entertainment in their lounge tonight which sounds cool and
different.
