Canady Chronicles: STUCK in love!

I  been reading. I  been reading. I don't know why but I just felt like saying that, plus its true. Anyway I was reading this book by one of my favorite people in the world Mindy Kaling. In the book she talks about how most movies, plays, etc end with marriage and happily ever after. Like the fun ends when the marriage starts. Who wants to see a movie about a marriage? Well if its as cool as mine is I'm going to raise my hand to the sky. I think its important to magnify how awesome being married is and how much better it is than dating *sticks out tongue*.

My husband is my best friend, not in the sense that I tell him everything (don't worry your secrets are safe with me) but in the way that I love hanging out with him above anyone else, and I think he's the funniest person I've ever met. We really have a good time and I'm not always dying for a girls night (although its due) or to get away from him in general. In fact as I sit here and type this, the man JUST sent me a snapchat of himself singing "All The Way Turned Up" in his car doing this weird janky move, and I love it.

Being married is not just about unprotected sex on call and having two incomes, both are extremely nice don't get me wrong but it gets better. Marriage, for me is about being able to wake up to his face each morning, the unsolicited butt grabs throughout the day, laying on his lap reading while he plays COD, knowing and being okay with this being the person that I'm going to sit on a porch with, old as hell, heckling young people. MY problems are now OUR problems and MY wins are now OUR wins, and vice versa.

We disagree, I pout, I make a big deal out of things that he thinks are silly, I get defensive, he shows no emotion, he takes everything for face value, I always dig for a deeper meaning...I mean these are the things we deal with, but none of the above listed outweighs the love and respect I have for our union. So while its hard to see why anyone gets married these days, remember that it's STILL the greatest thing on earth if you do it right.
