Its the 8th. Always makes me think of my friend who celebrated Lunaversarries. that is the same day each month that she met her husband. The 8th was when Fate determined Ed and I would be One. It was the 8th of November 1969. I was in art school and had been dating 3 really creepy guys for a few weeks and decided to accept a date with all three of them on the same friday nite thinking who ever came first , the other two would learn a lesson ( they always came 2 -3 hours late) On Friday the 7th I sat home waiting and listening to Joni Mitchell whose music was the inspiration for the first poster I made while waiting for SOMEONE to show up. NO ONE came! what are the chances of being stood up by THREE guys!!?? but as I said FATE was handling all this. I woke up after that depressing evening and decided not to s[pend the weekend alone and called my cousins friend I had met two days earlier who had said to call if I ever wanted to go to a party cause she went a lot. SO she came and had her Army boyfriends buddy with her . He was getting ready to ship out to cook school that Monday then Viet Nam and was wanting to go to party on his last weekend in MA. It was love at first site. we talked jokingly of marriage that first nite. and later we always counted this date as our real anniversary. When I came home after that weekend the second poster was created as I was pining for him (theres an old-fashioned word!) trying to fathom how I could stand waiting to see him again. Life is a mystery. you just gotta trust in it.
