So How's Married Life
Okay so I have been married since April. We had lived together for 3 years before so why are people asking me "how's married life" as if something has changed. I feel like saying "Married life is sooo different is like I'm a completely different person. I am whole where I was halved." I really say "the same as shacking up" because it is. Marriage is only different if you do something crazy like change your name or combine your money. I did not do either of these things because I don't want someone to get mad that a bought something nor do I feel the need to volunteer my purchases. And I really don't want the hassle of changing my name. In fact since we are not filing our taxes together I checked the single boxes on my tax forms for my new job. I felt a little like I was cheating on a test when I did it. So I hope I never hear myself saying "how's married life"

My Sister
My sister is coming up and leaving her children and husband at home. Me and my sister are both married but she has children which are a big time and energy taker. I should know I work with them everyday. Anyway my sister is like my husband likes to be alone and spend time in the house. I don't know when this exactly happened to my sister. It was before she got married but she was never single. She has been dating her now husband since college. So anyway she is coming up and I am forcing her to go out and have a good time outside of my house. We are going to the Melting Pot for dinner, Evita and then drinking out in Baltimore. So what I do every month or so minus the show or the dinner for that matter but whatever. I think I am going to take her to the 13th floor last time I went there I had such a good time. I went with Ally and it was so fun. So I am excited and I not going to take no for an answer about going out. My Mother made me promise not to get her too drunk so.............

Sex in the City
Okay so I knew what sex in the city was about before I watched it but Oh my God what haters. Maybe my problem I know no one is going to sleep with my husband because I can barely get him off the computer to sleep with me and the only reasons he leaves the house is to go to work or when I force him to or to play role playing games. Maybe I starting to figure out my own answers here. My boyfriend prior to me was not a "swinging single" so I don't even think about if a women I am talking to is single or not. And their is no "we" unless I'm talking about me and Ally or me and Cara or me and Emily or me and Heather. I don't know but I have come to a point where I don't like how married women are portrayed in the shows I want to watch. And again can someone tell where these herds of married couples are so I can go graze with them. Just to see what married people are like because I still don't know.

Mr. Eddie
We have a new teacher in the room at work now. Mr. Eddie and I like Mr. Eddie. He's cool not all uptight so far as I can tell. So it's me and the boys now Mr. Kenny and Mr. Eddie. I like Sarah but she gets too worked up about things. The boys will be better for me to deal with. Halloween is coming up so we can do fun things and dress up and play around. The rain should stop this week so that will be wonderful. There is nothing worse than being cooped up with little children in one room for nine hours. They go crazy and so do you. Nap time is the worst because they have so much energy and trying to make them lay there for hours is a disaster.

Ravens Football
We won we actually won a game. Not only did we win we won 16-3 that's the best we've done all season. Okay we did the Browns not the upset of the season but still......after last week it's good to win. We threw the ball with only one interception. I think only one personal foul call, that's excellent. My two fantasy guy both did really well. One scored a touchdown so that's awesome.
My fantasy football team was in first place going into this week so I'm very happy about that. Oh football it's so wonderful. I'm sure this will change in the coming weeks so enjoy the happiness now.

Little Children
Now sorry I haven't written in awhile but things have been crazy. I started my new job as a preschool teacher. Now first I teach in a pre-K room so the kids are 4-5 years old. My two co teachers are uptight and don't always get along. So far I just come in and go right to the kids and teach when it is my turn. I try to stay away from the two of them not that I don't talk to them but I don't fall over myself to get involved either. Now we take turns teaching week to week. So when its their turn I sit in with the kids during the whole day. When it's my turn they sit and talk and so thier paperwork at the tables. Also if you don't know four year olds have attitudes. I am the newest teacher in the room some of the kids are new and they are fine but the left overs are just something else. Only three of them but it's enough.

Football
Okay it is my favorite time of the year, Football!!!! Now the problem I have only one friend that likes football as much as I do and yes it's a boy and no it's not my husband. Now this friend lives in PA and I don't see him very much. My parents have season tickets to the Ravens and have four seats. I go a lot because I live a half and hour away from downtown. My dilemma is that I don't have a supply of people to take who understand or even like football.
An example of this is last Sunday. I made my husband go to a game with me. I haven't made him go since 2003 so right there that should have clued me in but I had forgotten. So he went and just sat there. Then he compared going to the game to going to church. Then he complained about how much bottled water was and about me getting pizza and on and on.
Now I have joined a fantasy football league thanks to my friend Ally. This is really fun and I'm really getting into it. I am currently in 3rd place in my league. There are only eight teams so it's not that impressive but still. I highly recommend fantasy football.
Now we have all heard of girls who try to learn football so they have a common interest with their boyfriend/husband. So my question is why is my husband not like these girlfriends and wives I hear about? Why does the sight of football make him run away? Is he broken is some kinda of way?

The Day of Freedom
Today I did get to watch Oprah and I went out to lunch with the sister in law/friend Cara. I also went to the doctor which is my new boss's husband. Something is wrong with that. Anyway he didn't even take my blood pressure. My Mother called me in the middle of Oprah as did my sister so I really didn't get to listen to Lisa Marie or her Mother but that is probably for the best.
I also got to watch the Bold and the Beautiful my guiltiest pleasure. So all in all a good day off!

Holiday Inn
Today was my last day working at the Holiday Inn Inner Harbor. I went to happy hour with three of my now former co-workers. We bitched about work in true happy hour fashion and talked about everyone we work with. Us liking them had nothing to do with whether we talked about them or not, on one was spared. This is not relative but of course all of these girls are single because all my friends are. Anyway one of these girls have just started smoking with encouragement from another one who kinda of smokes. Now when I say kinda smokes I mean doesn't have to smoke just does it depending on the company she keeps. The one who just started smoking is 26 and has two children. What are you stupid? If you have gone this long without smoking why start now?

Tomorrow
Tomorrow I have almost a whole day where I don't have to do anything. I have to get a physical for my new job at 10am. Then the rest of the day I am freeeeeeeeeee. I have not had a day in house by myself in awhile. Now for you single people this is not a big deal you are in your house alone all the time. For me this is a big deal. I'm going to watch Oprah and I don't know what else but it's gonna be good.

My friend Ally inspired me to write this blog, she is one of those single people who has decided she hates married people which is fine expect for the fact that she wants to get married. Why do I have so many friends like this? Married people don't spend their days cursing their single friends we sit back quietly and hear about their life and act like we are jealous? Isn't that what we are suppose to do?
