I fell in love again, all things go, all things go

Two weeks removed from the "big day" and I can safely say that things have not changed much. I still leave my clothes lying on the floor of the closet. I still play brick breaker while laying bricks on the toilet. I still snore like a bear after a night of drinking with the boys. I suppose it helps to live with your wife before you get married. There are no surprises that way.

One of my married friends however warned me about how sex changes afterwards. Over a few drinks one night he commented on how after you get married, "it's no longer just sex...it's sex with a purpose". Of course mixing my poor hearing and some alcohol, I thought he was talking about kinky marine animal sex. Who said sex is boring after you get married?!

The thought of now having sex to procreate is a bit scary though. I don't think Sonia and I are at that stage right this moment but I must admit we're not too far away. *shivers* I barely have time to write this blog let alone raise a kid. I suppose when the time is right I'll make time and priorities will change. Less frequent Friday night drinking sessions and fewer weekend fishing trips...o noes. :(

So I guess until that "time", I'm going to enjoy being freshly married and childless. How much longer do I have? Who knows but the clock is definitely ticking.
