listening to: "never going back again" - fleetwood mac
Although we're excited about what's to come, and while we may feel varying degrees of AWESOME, this is actually a very sobering time for us as we spend a lot of time in conversation about joining together all of the minutiae of our lives. It's hard, all of this talking. We didn't think much about how complicated it was going to be. Bank accounts, credit scores, mortgages, families, discussions of future division of labor and money... It's overwhelming, though it's good for us. We're figuring out how to healthily fight with each other, which cannot be a bad thing. The reality of the situation is that we met less than a year ago, got engaged April 17, set a date for late August, and, oh yeah, we close on our house late this week or early next week. I quit my second job at the brewery last week, and while I will miss the easy on-hand cash, I am enormously glad to have gotten away with my sanity. Anyway, we are so excited and so stressed out and we can't wait to get this show on the road, but meanwhile, wow. This is intense.
