LOST IN MASTICATION

Ten – or tenuto – is a musical notation that indicates that you should hold the particular note a bit longer. Tenuto Ten is also a decade… quite a long time.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 10 years since @PadrePablo and I met and began a long-distance relationship. Back then, airfare on Southwest was about $29 each way, we talked on AIM or land line… and we ran to the nearest college computer lab to see if we had an email from each other. Since then we moved in together, got married, and went back to a long-distance relationship again.

Today, we fly $49 flights, talk on Google Chat and check for emails from each other on our iPhones. (Yes, I measure time through the evolution of technology.)

Consciously or unconsciously, I must have seen a tenuto accent over PadrePablo because here we are ten years later, having accomplished more together than we had individually dreamed of back then.

Here’s to tens more years and a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Main Man!
