My life so far...

A little less than 3 months from my One-Year anniversary. Time flies!

You must be wondering what kept you busy? Well I have a not very good reason. In my mind, the few weeks, actually, let's just say bachelorette party onwards felt hectic and crazy. Can you believe there are actually people out there who envy pre-marital wedding planning? I sure don't. 

It's kind of crazy, but you know in the movies, after marriage usually comes a bundle of joy, or something equally profound and monumental. It hasn't really been like that. I don't yearn for a baby anymore than I did pre-marriage, and let's just say I was far from wanting one... ever. At least, not in the next few years. I'm 30, flirty and thriving, or so says Jennifer Garner. I'm actually wanting to go back to school just to sit in a classroom to flex my mental muscles. I want to get enough credits to sit for the CPA, and I want to eventually pass the exams. 

Plans versus Reality..... I find that there are some "societal norms" that I find myself falling into. Babies should definitely follow after marriage. I don't want them, but I definitely feel like I have an obligation to have them, and sometime soon, before my eggs get old. Old being the science backed age of 35. I am entering my early 30s, and already feel like there's not enough time between now and then to do everything I want and still have these babies before it's I'm too old. It would probably be more politically correct to say that I'm just not ready for babies, or as I've said to my family I'm not done being selfish yet. 

To get back to the point, so what have I been doing? That will probably have to wait until the next time.
