Renaissance
So it’s been five + years. A good chunk of life has happened, undocumented here in the annals of the internet. Rest assured though, there have been piles. Some things never change. As it happens though, this tumblr tagline will. No longer can I say “what I did the night I didn’t join OK Cupid”. As it turns out, I joined Tinder instead, and reader, here I sit, 5 years later, in a shared apartment with my truly excellent husband. #swiperight
There’s much to say about finding someone truly excellent (particularly via the internet), learning that they, in turn, find you truly excellent, and figuring out how to build a life together. But that’s not why we’re here. As it happens, Our first challenge as a couple was navigating the natural enemy of the pile: Bedbugs.
I took this picture way back then, perhaps as an insurance policy that no matter what happened with this relationship, I’d at least have a good photo to add to this blog. So now, I present you that photo with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight. I didn’t have bedbugs, but boy should you check for them in every hotel or place you ever sleep. And what the hell, swipe right, you never know.
