15 Year Anniversary

Today is my 15th wedding anniversary.  Yep, Melissa and I have been married 15 years.  It is no small feat for anyone to put up with me for 15 years, day in and day out.  I have no idea how the woman does it.

That’s incredible! Not one of my friends have lasted that long…. Congratulations Mr&MrsXML!

My parents have been married 50 years and they still don’t understand each other!

God o'mighty, I haven't known you that long, but I have to agree - how has she put up with the likes of you all these years. Jesus, 15 year?!? Congratulations to the both of you - may you do it again 10-fold.

About donxml

I’m an independent consultant, specializing in .Net solutions architecture, based out of New Jersey who also doubles as an evangelist for XML, Domain Driven Design, enterprise architecture and .Net. I do not work for Microsoft, the W3C or any other big company that you may know of (at least not yet). I’ve been an indie for over ten years, and although I’ve been tempted a couple times to take a job with companies like Microsoft, I’ve haven’t found something better than my current situation. I work mostly with the large pharmaceuticals that are based here in New Jersey, and usually find myself on long term contracts. Definitely not the prototypical indie consultant, but it lets me dedicate time to my non-income generating activities like the developer community stuff, plus financing open source projects like XPathmania and MVP-XML. If you would like to talk to me about doing some contract work, just contact me via the contact page. My rates vary widely, depending on lots of different variables, but mostly distance from Jersey, and type of work. Plus, I’ve been known to donate some of my code for various projects.
