Happy Anniversary

June 18, 1994. Fourteen years ago today, I traded in my maiden name and became Rita Devlin.

I had been completely smitten with Keith Devlin for nearly six years by the time we made it to the aisle on that hot, hot, hot Georgia afternoon.

Those fourteen years? Like all things, they've had their ups and downs, I guess. We've moved a million times and bought almost as many houses. We've adopted two canine children and lost one. We've lost a parent, two grandfathers, and too many other loved ones. In many ways, it's been just like any other life. But it's been our unique life to live together.

The best part is that I'm still smitten with Keith Devlin, we're still here, and we still love each other very much. I think that deserves a celebration.

Since I am a software developer, it was only natural for me to look upon this location through nerd eyes. This is our 14th anniversary. Being a nerd, I thought "Hmmm, 14 in decimal converts to E in hexadecimal." So, with all of the hexadecimal love I can muster... Happy 0xEth Anniversary! Perhaps someday we can celebrate our 0x32 anniversary and have a big blow out!

In honor of Keith "I can't help myself; I simply must geek the crap out of the romance of my wife's loving post" Devlin, I hereby offer my take on 14 years of marriage: Rita's heart beat faster in anticipation as Keith put his strong, muscular hands around her waist, pulling her into an embrace that left her breathless, and begging for more. As his head bent towards hers, she knew in her heart that he was going to kiss her. And when his lips claimed hers for his own, she was lost...lost forever in her own sea of love." Happy Anniversary!
