One year ago today

One year ago today I was waking up in a fancy schmancy hotel room after a long day/night before. Flower petals all over the room along with burnt out candles, 9 yards of material, and a white dress strewn over the table and chairs. No longer was I living in sin. Now it was allllll legal :).

Happy Anniversary to my lovely wife. We made it a year now... only 99* years more to go.

Some things I've learned over the last year:
1) Nothing is really "fair" in marriage, only Love and War (according to the bible).
2) Never leave the toilet seat up. Nevermind that you had to lift it before going, now you have to put it back down... if you can lift it to pee, she should have to put it down to pee. Seems 0nly fair... but see #1
3) Dishes don't wash themselves and if you do them she'll find the one dish that you didn't wash all the way.
4) Cooking is fun, but messy. Apparently if you cook you have to clean it right up after you eat.
5) Make-up sex is good.
6) Living with your wife is hard work, but worth it in the end.
7) Living with your wife and a loud bitch of a roomate is even harder, but not rewarding at all, in fact it tends to cost you more money somehow.
8) The biggest fights come from the smallest of mis-understandings.
9) I love kissing my wife's neck.
10) Embarassing your wife in public is fun at the time, but sometimes leads to #8 and then # 5.
11) Laughter is the best medicine, unless you've just had surgery.
12) Be careful what you ask for when your wife wants to "fix" a bodily "injury".
13) I never want to be the car steering wheel of a car my wife drives.
14) Kilts are surprisingly comfortable.
15) Talking and listening are two totally different things and should never be done at the same time.
16) I never knew the word "bird" could be so funny till you hear people on the radio talk about what they stuff in them for Thanksgiving.
17) Did you know there was only one way to fold underwear?
18) Everything we have is hers and there are somethings that are only hers.
19) Sometimes, even going to Wal-Mart can be an adventure.
20) You can be blamed for something even though you had nothing to do with it. You also pay for it too. Eventually it turns out to be #8 and hopefully then #5 again.
21) If she's not happy, then I'm not happy.
22) There are a ton of Brownie points in Flowers
23) Remebering how she likes her burger prepaired goes a looong way.
24) When she says that she wants something in particular to eat, it would be best if you went and got it, despite what you think...
25) There are things that you do that she thinks is cute... then later it annoys the shit out of her.
26) The word "cute" can be a code word and it could also mean "cute". You have to infer when she's saying it as a code word. For example: "This apartment is cute". Means that's it's really nice, it could also mean "small" depending on what's she thinking and you just have to know what she's thinking.
27) She's a strong woman till she gets sick...
28) Every day is different with my wife, some good, some bad, but in the end is worth every pain and joy that it brings.

*give or take :)
