Three Years Later

Wow this has been a long time! I've been walking down memory lane, and reading some of these posts. Two things. One, I still think I'm hilarious. Two, most of it is still true. A lot has changed in three years.

I fell completely in love. By accident. (It does happen, dear reader; don't judge me.)

I quit my job and moved across the country, and I can honestly say it was the best thing I ever did. A lot of this blog was to help me cope with things that drove me crazy about working at a car dealership that shall remain nameless and location-less. I didn't have a job waiting for me out here, but I've kept my head above water. No idea how I've managed it, and I'm so very thankful that things have worked out as well as they have. I have never felt so at ease with my life.

The biggest change: I got married. And he's incredibly hunky. Way hunkier than I ever thought I'd ever end up with. Who ever saw that one coming? Seriously. I sure didn't. Due to some bad experiences while dating some guys in the military, I tried really hard to not get involved with this one. (He's a Marine pilot) Thankfully, I have a very persistent friend who was certain that I needed to meet him, and that we were well matched. I was terrified, but when I flew out to hang with her, and he was at the airport too with 18 red roses, it started a serious skid. I couldn't be happier.

I think the major life changes have had a significant effect on the way I look at the world, in a good way. I married someone who has the same warped sense of humor as me (a true blessing,) and with the help of some wonderful friends and him, I've gotten better at saying what I think, and being a bit of a smartass. I honestly have no idea where this is going to go from here, but we'll see! I can't wait!
