Thirty years ago yesterday, I woke with the stone cold certainty that we were doing the wrong thing. It had become crystal clear to me overnight that we had made a mistake.
“We can’t do this,” I told ActorLaddie. “We’ll have to cancel.”

To his credit, ActorLaddie stayed very calm. He didn’t reason or try to change my mind.
“That’s fine,” he said. “No problem. Shall I tell your mother or will you?”

Married thirty years today.
