I'm back!

So, as it turns out, I'm a lousy blogger. But I'm insanely bored, Kyle is sleeping (and as such, I can't bother him with how bored I am) so I'll just chat on here right now.

Marriage is fantastic. By the way, I got married. I feel like my most recent post was about either the fourth of July, or Kyle's proposal. Now I'm married. And yesterday officially marks the day we went on our first date. (Two more weeks, and we'll have been "together" for a year.) It's amazing how much one's life can change in a year. A year ago, I was going on a mission, waiting for my call to come in the mail. Holy cow, I was so excited, and Kyle was so bummed out. Back then, I was slightly confused at why he thought we wouldn't get back together after my mission, and why he was so concerned about it, but as it turns out, he had already "sent" three or four girls on their missions (and by "sent," I mean he was interested, went on a date, and was put down by an "I'm going on my mission, so I'm not interested." One of those girls told him she'd look him up afterwards, but she never did).

It's nice to be with someone who is your best friend, who you could tell every secret to, who loves you unconditionally, who laughs at your stupid jokes (I try so hard to be funny, but all my jokes come out rather constipated). He's a fabulous cook, but he hates doing dishes, so I find myself cleaning up more than I do cooking. It's a little bit different from what I expected. He's so selfless - sometimes I feel like I don't do enough, and when I say as much, he either looks confused or amused.

Right now, Kyle is working graveyard at Wal-Mart (we're hoping one of the jobs he applies to will answer back) hence, it is 2:00 and still asleep. Our landlord is currently fixing our leaky shower head, so it's also really noisy, and I hope Kyle can at least get some sleep. One thing's for sure: he's gonna be tired and grumpy when he gets up. :)

I was trying to write one of my stories just now - the one I'm writing for my Writing Fiction class with Brandon Sanderson. We have to write a 50,000 word novel, which is about 200 pages in a book, or 100 pages on Word. So that makes me about a tenth of the way through, but this is just one of those days that I'm crazy bored, and I can't sit still for anything. Which also might explain why I'm rambling so much.

So, yeah. I hope Hannah and Rachel are happy - they've been bothering me so much to get a post up because they want to know what's going on in my life.

Also, read the Mistborn series. Brandon Sanderson is a genius, which is why I'm taking his class. (Did you know he's Mormon?)
