One year almost...
So I have been thinking about the fact that my wife and I have been married for almost a year. It seems like it was just yesterday that I was watching her walk down the aisle to step up beside me at the front of a fairly full chapel. It is funny how slow life seems at times but then when you get to a "mile marker" and look back that it seems like almost no time has passed at all.
I was wondering if any of the other lucky couples feel the same way. I know that Redhurt and his wife are coming up on 2 years here in the next couple months. What are your thoughts on the matter. The thing is that so many things have happened but when you look back your mind erases all of the mundain happenings of the normal days and the negative downfalls and you remember the happy things that have happened. It is like the phrase from the movie "Just Married" where the father of the groom is talking to his son about marriage. He says (in so many words) that love is not like looking through a photo album just seeing smiles. It is the stuff that gets you from one happy picture to the next. It has been almost a year and I still am just as much if not more in love with my wife that when we got married.

Nice, cassanova.
I guess it's gone fast, but life's been a blur for me since highschool. College went fast, marriage is going fast, and I don't really expect it to slow down.
I have to say that if we were in love when we got married, we're definitely not now. We're married for the tax breaks, for the social status, for the shared income, sex, and distribution of labor. It's free exchange for mutual benefit.
Just kidding, but seriously, we love the tax breaks.
Casanova?! I have to say that I am a little surprised to hear you quote a line from that movie. It just doesn't seem like your cup-o-tea. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie though.
Yeah, my wife made us rent it from McDonald's for $1, which is a great business plan by the way. It was a lot better than I expected, which is to say more than 1/10.
Next time you go there you should rent the 5 hour version of Pride and Prejudice or The Importance of Being Earnest.
