Nine-Nine-Nine

So, yesterday was September 9, 2009 (or, 09/09/09). It also happened to be my three year anniversary with Randy (well, look at that, three times three is also nine). Anyway, we didn’t exactly celebrate in a traditional way;

We met with an attorney to draft our wills, power of attorney, health care proxy, etc…. Nothing says romance like talking about death. Still now that we’re going to own property together and, let’s face it, we’re not getting any younger, this is a logical thing to do. In fact, I should have had one drafted years ago.

We are getting an amazing deal, though. I called around and the cheapest lawyer I could find was $800 per person (one was even $1,100 per person). But through Harvard (another benefit of working here) we’re getting all of our estate planning documents drafted for only $300 each.

Oh, back to our anniversary, so then Randy got presented with a huge project and our evening was spent with him in the spare bedroom working and me catching up with things on the DVR (and playing on the internet, of course).

On the plus side, we’re both considering our trip to Ptown last weekend as the real anniversary celebration…and what a great trip it was! And we’re hoping to make up for last night’s lack or romance by going out to dinner tonight instead.

Oh, and we’re moving out three weeks from today. EEK!
