So you want to get married huh?

I just got married again last April 29. Some say it’s too early for me, but they negate their own statements upon seeing my husband. I dunno why.
For a woman my age, there are still a lot of things in the line that should be experienced. To make it politically-correct, there are still a lot of things “they” want to experience. Well, that excludes ME.
I started doing “typical” teenage things (minus drugs and sex, ok) as early as my 1st year high. For some, this level isn’t as young to do stupid things anymore. Well, for us, anyway, that was way tooo young. Those were the times of curfews, silent treatments at home, late night conversations with your M.U. in clandestine, white-lying, and the dawn of “anklets” and cheese-flavored popcorns. It is also the high time of the Hanson brothers and all those teeny-bopper boybands, doll shoes, platforms, and Bench 8. (Oh, I think I have already dug too deep a grave of revealing my age. )
Anyway, there are a lot of things I realized now that I am married this early.
I won’t have to wake up one day, naked in some GUY X’s bed, not knowing where how I got there because I was just so awfully drunk the night after pay day.
If I get pregnant now, and people ask me if my parents know, I can ask them the same question without batting an eyelash.
I get to have a personal alarm clock!
We get to talk about kids without having panic attacks.
In line with item no. 3, it’s this time of my life that I get to relax even if I miss a period. (all I have to worry about is if I have cancer of some sort! Yay!)
The rain sounds sweeter now.
You realize that exposing your ears to constant, hazardous “snoring” can be habit forming.
That it’s actually annoying to channel-zap the boob, no, it’s just hard to admit that you actually have to fight for you TV rights and always get on your toes for the remote control.
That hairbrushes can grow and go everywhere! On their own!
That the bathroom SHOULD NOT be clean always. It ruins the Feng Shui.
The laundry basket now is a conjugal property.
To be able to distinguish your socks from his, sniff it. Nope, there’s no option 2.
That the bed sees and hears everything.
Finally, the toilet bowl is a trophy! You just have to race to get to it.
For your reference and guidance.
Thank you.
