8 Years

Today is July 23rd, 2010.  That’s me and Janises 5th wedding anniversary, and exactly 8 years since we got together.

You know – like everyone, I make jokes about being married.  About how hell it can be bla bla bla – but at the end of the day, I consider myself the luckiest person in the world.

I’ll be 30 in 6 months.  A lot of people talk about how they have “stuff to do before they’re 30” and may even have goals lists.  Maybe get a drivers license, or go bungee jumping or travel to another country or learn a foreign language.

I don’t have anything on my “things to do before I’m 30” list.  I’ve did all that I would want to do by marrying Janise.   Someone whose face is the last one I see at night, and the first one I see in the morning.  Someone who I want to share everything with, and who I live to make happy.  Really that’s all I want to do in my life and is my one main goal – to make my wife of 8 years(officially 5 years) the happiest person in the world.

Because ultimately, I’ve married not my best friend, but my soulmate.  And that’s pretty fucking awesome.

Here’s to 8 years, and many, many more.
