Married life

Well it's officially day 2 of Laura being gone on her Outward Bound trip.  I'm sure we'll hear a lot about it when she returns.  Although it' s 5 AM and I have work in a few hours, I figured I would write something since it's been almost 6 months since I've done so.  I should be working on my term paper (heh, heh), but I figure this should only take a few minutes =-).

As Laura said in her previous post, it is nice to be married.  A lot of people ask what it's like and I always respond that it's the same as when we were dating.  That may not be the same for everyone but it is at least the same for us.  We probably spend more time with each other than most couples though.  While we were dating and for a few months after we were married we were at work together an office away and we would spend most of our time after work with each other as well.  After Laura switched projects, we're still in the same building so we can carpool and see each other for lunch but it's less than what it was before.  Outside of work we're usually together though - either at school or at home.  

I also tell people I think the big changes come when you have kids - seems like that will be a big change for us too since there's more of a chance we'll be in different places since we probably won't both be working full time or at school and we'll also have to focus our attention on our kids which will leave a little less attention for each other.  But it's still exciting - I think we're off to a great start =-)!
