I love these threads, they always remind me to do something special for my wife.

I like them too, scary, but inspiring. I see that marriage is going to be lots of work and risk, but the older I get, the less I care about possessions. But, I still have to worry about what the cats will think.

That's a series concern ... we got our cat when two of our friends who already had cats got married. Our Agnes insists on being the only animal in the home - she even dipped one of our fish out of the bowl and ate him!

She also had a nervous breakdown when our first child was born, and the vet had to tranquilize her for a couple of months while she got used to it. She's maintained an armed truce with all the kids since then; she bites them if they annoy her, and we say, "Serves you right!"

But for real ... marriage is worth the work, and provides extra people to nurture the cats :-).
