wow, 24 hours ago, we were partying it up at our wedding, and now in three and a half hours, we’ll be on a plane to disneyworld for a few days before sitting on a beach in jamaica.
i’m not sure that i can express into words all of the emotion and happiness that flowed through my body yesterday. everything went absolutely perfectly, aside from me losing emotional containment minutes before the ceremony started, but that’s par for the course, i suppose. it’s an amazing feeling to be surrounded by friends and family cheering for your every move; people that are important to you from various walks of life who want nothing more than for you to be happy. it was an absolutely amazing night.
the other thing that i’ve noticed, and yes, it’s only been 24 hours, is that being married certainly feels different than not being married. i’ve heard people say that they’ve lived with the person they were going to marry, they then got married, and nothing changed. in the short time it’s been for us, the feelings are completely different. there’s a sense of security and future now. not that that wasn’t there before, but it really hits home that we’re going to live our lives together forever. we’re a family. we’re going to have to make tough decisions and those decisions will guide where our lives take us.
clearly, i’m a bit sappy and sleep deprived right now, but i have to say, this marriage thing is pretty awesome.
