A bunch of Anniversary

We celebrated our 4th anniversary a few days ago. So yes, we're older looking than in our picture. I have a beard, circles under my eyes, probably less hair, but I've feared I've been losing that since I was in elementary school, a thought which I curiously share with Chris Martin of Coldplay.

We cashed out a lot of retirement savings. It's kind of a strange situation. It has to do with the Social Security Administration. The SSA is an odd place. I caught an elderly security guard checking out a middle-aged woman's derrière, and then his eye, after which he watched me like a hawk. There was a kid there too that smelled up the waiting room, and then we shared an elevator with afterwards. He didn't have to explain it, we're modest people, but he blamed it on a BK Croissandwich anyway.

The long and the short of it is that while all this money is passing through my hands, most of it just going towards our mortgage, Danielle gave me the anniversary present of a Gretsch Double Anniversary. It's a cool guitar. Hopefully you'll hear it soon, as we start a new round of recording a week from tomorrow.

Here's the very guitar, a shiny Cadillac Green 1964 Double Anniversary:
