Let's Go Back

Two kids say "I do"

We met in eighth grade, math class.  Emerson Jr. High.  My friend liked him.  I ghost wrote funny notes for her to give him.  Summer after ninth grade.  Bettina's house.  A swimming party.  We played "keep away" in the pool.  We couldn't keep away.  A chemical reaction.  We dated.  And then we didn't.  A year went by.  And then another.  End of 11th grade, we signed each other's yearbooks.  We dated again.  We fell in love.  "One day, we'll get married."  Before college, we broke up.  During college, we got back together.  Then we broke up.  We were off and on more times than we can remember.  Junior year, he went to Sweden.  I went to England.  We met up in Paris, 1978.  "Let's never break up again." That was that.  We married in Beverly Hills, 1980.
