"Everything for Your Garden but the Rain"
(Pets Available at Downtown Store Only)
J.'.MJMrM.I
grooms of yesteryear two
questions:
How long have you been
married?
What Is your best recol
lection of what went through
your mind when you said "I
do"?
Those surveyed have been
married from two to 41 years.
An analysis of the question
naires shows that Initial en
chantment dims around the
tenth year of married life.
The original glow goes but
isn't forgotten. It tends to re
appear after the silver wed
ding anniversary, growing
more mellow with each sub
sequent year.
Some participants in the
survey didn't wear wedding
hands. It was necessary to ask,
"are you married?" Their
comments, as they spurned the
questionnaire, Included:
"No. Hut my wife Is."
"1 wish I wasn't."
Typical
Typical recollections of the
bridegrooms: ,
"Oh, heck, kept think
ing. How am I going to get the
cat out from under my feet."
He said "I do" at home wed
ding where even pets were In
vited. "It'll be for a long, long
time," recalled a husband of
22 years.
"I don't think I had a
chance to say 'I do' loud
f nough for even me to hear It.
She had the last and loudest
word then and still has."
"1 kept wondering If I'd
get a ticket." said the bride
groom of 20 years. "I was
double-parked."
"There, 1 did It and I'm
glad," responded ( man mar
I rl"d two years.
"What am I letting my
self In for?" answered an
other. Was Happy
"I thought of nothing at
all," said a husband of IS
years. "I was too happy to
think happy about marry
ing the girl I loved at thr
time."
"I Just wished my knees
would stop knocking," said a
veteran of 10 years.
"When I said I do' I
thought that I'd make It a bet
ter marriage than the one my
always-fighting parents had."
"When I said 'si' as we
do when married In Argen
tina It was seven years ago.
I'm about to develop a serious
case of seven years' hitch!
-"I said the words and kept
wondering: why didn't we get
out of here quick. It was
snowing and I was afraid
we'd need a tow. I didn't have
snow tires."
Felt Trapped '
Some of the bridegrooms
just felt trapped, putting it
this way: Well, old boy, you
can't get out of it now. You
just said 'I do' and a promise
Is a promise."
Several admitted the mind
went blotto. These men have
absolutely no recollection of
even saying the two words.
Others wondered about the
possibility of making a lis
take, saying at ceremony's
end: "Oh, well, now it's too
late."
One bridegroom said he
never said "I do." The cere
mony was In French. He
didn't speak a word of French,
his bride's native language.
"I simply nodded," he re
called, "and I remember that
I was pretty groggy that day."
Other comments:
"I sure could use a drink."
"What in the world am I do
ing here!" "How In the world
did I get Into this!"
Sentimental
The most sentimental recol
lection came from a man mar
ried 41 years. He said:
"As I said '1 do,' I remem
ber thinking thank God. I
got what 1 wanted. Now I'm
happy.'
And what do women think
when they say "I do?" A hus
band of 15 years guessed it
this way:
"All women remember is
the sound of a steel trap slam
ming shut," he said. "Clink.
That did it."
