Ten Daze

Ten days. In ten days I’ll be married. After all the preparation and painting and planning and mulching, it’ll be over with. The actual event will most likely be bittersweet as the Ladybird and I move on to another stage of our life, our first as a married couple.
I’m excited about the wedding. I’m even more excited when, a month later, I’ll have a week and a half of beach time. No pets to clean up after. No work to deal with. No homework; just my new bride, myself and the Complete Works of Shakespeare. I think I’ll bring my guitar too.

I can’t wait. I’m glad I only have to do this once. Marriage, that is. I hope to have more than one more vacation.
