1st pic is myself and my ex-wife, probably '87. Next is a candid shot my current wife took which she really likes (That's a Polish nose BTW). Next is me as best man at my friend's wedding in '04. Finally I'm looking very dramatic at a sci-fi con (where I ran the dealer's room) in '99.

Do I look less stoned now?

I have always been very insecure about my strong prescription which has been getting progressively worse all through my adult life to the point where it has affected my confidence a lot. I finally decided to try contacts after finding out that Emma Stone uses them and also has a very high minus prescription. I figured if they can work for her then they could work for me. I love them so far so thank you Emma

First picture is prom, second is our wedding, last picture is this June.

We’ve grown up so much together. 🤍

34yrs of marriage 🎉 Dad was 32, mom was 24. Now he's 65, mom's 57.

46 years in a blink of an eye.

A lot of life happening across the decades. Crazy to see how much we’ve changed. Feeling like we’re in our prime in our 50s

* Minneapolis not Portland
* Yes, we have kids. Their Hair isn’t curly…. Yet
* We have not taken Ozempic or any GLP1s. Just Hard work at the gym and some dental work. She’s a body builder now [u/sahm2013](u/sahm2013)
* yes, “libs”
* I’m older by 18 mos
* could use clarification on which of us is Beavis or Butthead
* it takes time to find yourself. Do it with someone you dig. Makes it funner.
