Vows

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky, Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone... crap this is the wrong note, one sec...

So I just want to preface this by saying that the internet is a beautiful place that can give you all different sort of time units, so you're all welcome in advance ;)

You and I have traveled through time together. It’s been approximately 72,230,400 seconds (836 days) since you first said yes to a date with me. About 787,680 minutes (547 days) since we moved in together, making a place for both of us (mostly made on a foundation of all my random boxes of crap Jess hauled to the basement) that was truly a home, because it was where we lived TOGETHER. Oh, and 4,920 hours (give or take) since you made me buy a house, we can't forget that. And now, it’s been 89.32% of a year (326 days) since I tossed a ring box at your head and said don't...mess... it up, and for some reason you still said yes.

Now, I want you to know that I will continue to travel through time with you. It doesn’t matter that we’re only moving in one direction: This is as much of an adventure to me as anything involving a mad man with a blue box. I will keep having adventures with you. I will walk this path with you, wherever it leads, as the road goes ever on. I will share the beauty and the joy I find along the way with you, and I will share your sorrows and help you to bear them. I will always, always, be your partner… and your companion. I love you.
