Back To "Normal"
Well it's official now, Julie and I are married as of October 18th, 2003. The day's events went off without any problems at all and everybody seemed to have a good time. Looking back I can't believe how fast everything went by and it's hard to realize that my family has been out here to Connecticut and gone home already. What the hell happened? We plan this thing for months and it's all over so quickly. Oh well, we were warned this would happen to us and sure enough it did. It's good thing we will have so many pictures of the big day to help remember everything. It's been over two weeks since we got married and we just got the rolls film into the shop today, everyone is eager to see them.
Tonight we also started working on the Thank You cards and did the finishing touches of putting things away and organizing. Finally!, we can see our living room again...lol.
Life seems so simple now and stress free. Although I'm still not able to work yet due to some Immigration restrictions (until January 5th anyway), I like the path our lives are taking now, everything seems to be falling into place. I managed to get my Social Security Number the other day and earlier today I went and got my Connecticut Driver's License. So now I'm beginning to feel like this is my home more and more, which I'm sure will come full circle by the time INS allows me to work.
But for now I'm managing to keep busy, there's always some little thing that needs doing whether it be small repairs around the house, running errands, preparing for upcoming events, or simply making dinner. Julie and I were lucky enough to get a shitload of cookware, dinnerware, silverware, and all sorts of appliances for our wedding so we are slowly breaking them all in. It sure has expanded our ability to be more creative when it comes to making meals.
With this amount of free time on my hands I find myself hand writing letters to friends and family back home. As I was writing my first one about a month ago I was trying to figure out when was the last time I wrote someone a letter. Besides the usual Christmas, Anniversary, or Birthday type cards I have no idea who I wrote my last letter too... but it must have been ages ago. Here I am living in a generation that depends on the "information super highway" and I'm heading back to the days of the Pony Express. I dunno, I think it's kind of cool and a lot more personal than a faceless email, even if the news you're passing along IS a week old and out of date.
I have a feeling that until January 5th rolls around I'll be having a lot of weird things cross my mind.
Be Prepared.
