Today, I am grateful that despite all of our, ahem, disagreements, my husband and I still love each other. In fact, we are still so committed to each other that we are willing to permanently disfigure our physical bodies as a tribute to one another.

We love Radiohead, and last year we took a little romantic vacation in a secluded cabin up north. We listened to a lot of music on that vacation, but the latest Radiohead album, In Rainbows blew our minds. So, we decided to get the Radiohead "scary bear" as (mostly) matching tattoos.

In particular, the song "Videotape" really affected us. Here are the lyrics:

When I’m at the pearly gates
This’ll be on my videotape
my videotape

When Mephistopheles is just beneath
And he’s reaching up to grab me

This is one for the good days
And I have it all here
In red blue green
Red blue green

You are my centre when I spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape

This is my way of saying goodbye
Because I can’t do it face to face

No matter what happens now
I won’t be afraid
Because I know today has been the most perfect day I’ve ever seen.

 

I am grateful to have such a wonderful husband, even when we have rough days.

And, as I predicted yesterday, I am grateful Chris Bianco lives in Phoenix. The pizza WAS amazing.
