"So...How's married life?"

“So…How’s married life?”

Since getting married in January, my wife and I have been asked that question so many times that I almost assume the next person I run into will ask it. I’m at the convenience store and the clerk asks “credit or debit?” and I say, “Ah, it’s good. Thanks for asking!”

This week we decided to start a blog about our lives as a wedded couple. I guess with saying that, I’m assuming our lives are interesting enough to blog about. I’m not going to say there won’t be entries that go into great detail about a sandwich I made on Wednesday, or how much fur our cat seems to be losing – you just may get some.

The blogs are written by myself and/or my beautiful wife, Laura. So we’ll get some variety and you can also read of how I rarely wash dishes. Enjoy. –Ryan

 

This evening, in our quest for a total body makeover, Laura and I went for a walk around the avenues. Our goal? To walk about 30 minutes.

Here’s a timeline:

Minutes 1-10:

Laura: It’s nice weather – I’m glad we’re doing this!

Ryan: So, 30 minutes, right?

Laura: It’s so nice to walk and see all of these cool houses that we otherwise pass up when we drive.

Ryan: Do you have to take every hill?

Laura: Look at that gargoyle at that house.

Ryan: Are we in a race!?!

Minutes 11-12:

Laura: I think I felt a raindrop.

Ryan: I can tell rainclouds…and those, definitely, are not rainclouds!

Minutes 13-20:

Laura and Ryan: (Running in the rain) Ah! I’m getting soaked!!!

Minutes 21-120:

We finish the 30-minute walk 2 hours later with our friends, Daniel and Melody, who joined us mid-walk.

The end.
