We're getting married in 3 weeks.
I'm not sure if you realize how weird this is (well, you probably do if you've been married). I never have been, so it's all new for me. I'm so excited, and scared, and generally sort of in disbelief about the whole thing. I'm not getting a tux for someone else's wedding, I'm getting one for my own--that's hard to wrap my mind around.
I mean, I'm not going to be single anymore. I'm going to live with my best friend for the rest of my life. It's weird and wonderful. I've looked forward to this for about as long as I can remember...and now it's actually happening.
The engagement was a lot harder than I expected. That said, I can't say I've had cold feet at any point. There has never been any question for me about whether I am marrying the right person. I'll never find anyone, ever, as perfect for me as Amy. As Forrest Gump said, "We (is) like peas and carrots." What precisely that means I'm not sure, but I like when he talked about chocolate. And I think I get the general idea.
I do know that I'm better with her, and I believe the same is true in reverse. We complement each other; we improve each other's strengths and minimize each other's weaknesses. And despite the fact that we're really, really different (I didn't realize how different until not very long ago), we have lots in common.
And I love her. There's not a lot to explain about that. I just do. I think that's how it should be.
