On being married...
Lots of people told me that planning my wedding would be frustrating and difficult. I loved every minute of it. There are days when I still miss it actually. But none of it can compare with being married. I am so happy. I really and truly love my life right now. At different times, I have found my passion in different things. There was a time where I lived for debate. There was a time I lived for high school bowl or OM. There were months where my life was consumed with my best friend. None of it has ever compared with the satisfaction of being married. There is nothing better in the entire world than lying in bed talking about the future and having complete faith that you'll be spending it with the person you love most in the world. Every day I get to go to bed with my best friend and I couldn't be luckier. There are certainly days when the little things can be a trial but it is hard to dwell on those when the biggest thing is going so right. I can look at my wedding pictures and smile at rememberance of the best day of my life but even more than that smile because it was the best decision I've ever made. I have truly been blessed with Paul. Who would have thought that the uber nerdy kid who seemed to have nothing to offer but the location of all those missing nukes (not that they are really dangerous right Deb, Kourt ;) would turn into someone I can't imagine ever living without.
