I perused my iphoto library randomly choosing a few of my favorite pictures to put on this about page. Apparently, as you can see on the left, I only make two faces in photos: the open mouth smile and the pursed lip.
My beau and I were married in October 2009 in a vintage inspired, DIY, party of the century affair filled with ice cream sundaes, candy, and dancing. It could have easily been mistaken for a 12 year olds birthday party. That's how I like it - young, fresh, casual, and hooped up on corn syrup. If you are so inclined, feel free to peruse my wedding planning here and my actual wedding here.
So, now I'm a wife, and, well, not sure what I'm supposed to be doing. It's not so different from dating, except THERE'S NO WAY OUT*. Every argument is met with a larger sense of empathy and understanding for the other's point of view. Unless we are debating the talent of the Philadelphia Eagles, the musical genius that is Mariah Carey's early albums, or ????, then I'm always right.
We have to be considerate of each other every single day. I have found myself actually putting my clothes away instead of on the floor. He is making me want to be a better woman.
I spend an embarrassing number of hours sitting on our too comfortable couch while watching reality TV, reading a blog, and having a phone conversation all at the same time. I have tried to not multi-task and give something, anything, my full attention for a whole five minutes. I made it to minute four of Reality TV Show before my hand went straight for my iphone. Damn.
If I had three wishes they would be to be fluent in every language in the world**, actually enjoy running***, and have financial security for life****.
Along with my husband, I like spending time with my craft table, my laptop, and anything edible.
*yes, technically there is a way out, which neither of us believe in. so there.
**really, to just help when ordering food in foreign places
***I have the urge to run, then I do it, and after approximatly three minutes, I want to die.
****not be rich, but to know that there will always be money there, that would be nice.
