year one..
one year ago sunday--wow..
ya kno, im not surprised so much by how quickly the year flew by as i am when i realize that A YEAR went by. i mean in many ways, it feels like only yesterday i was takin slow, deliberate breaths in the backroom before the ceremony. and yet unbelievably, i think about all that has transpired in the course of one year--the move, the job, the hell called "internship". and suddenly, BAM!! its one year..
we didnt do much for our first anniversary; in fact, we did jack. the day before, a home friend got married here in the area so all the home guyz stayed over. a late nite and early flights led to a sunday afternoon coma. but it was all good cuz we got to relax and recover--and most importantly, just enjoy bein together..
bein married a year now, i dont feel any wiser or maturer for it. not that i was expectin to, but maybe the assumption growin up was that couples are innately more "grown-up" because they are in a further stage of life. and i suppose its a bit disappointin to not only feel unwise or immature, but to also realize through my marriage that i am indeed those things..
maybe one anniversary, ill actually come to feel like a better man or a good (enough) husband--maybe one day when this life thing gets figured out. but until then, ill just take it as a journey w/ no clear end, which is fine cuz maybe bein together and reachin together is the whole point..
