The Long Wait

So, at the advice of a friend I have decided to start a wedding blog. I thought it might be cool to chronicle the events leading up to our big day, so that we have something for later that documents our journey. It has been a long road getting to here, and I'm sure that over the next couple of months it will seem like a long road getting to the actual event.

I am feeling anxious and ready to get married. I have felt married to Eb for a long time and now that it is actually in the works, I am totally ready. Part of me wishes we weren't waiting so long, but then the part of me that leaves laundry on the couch for a week without folding it knows why we are waiting so long.

I am at a stand-still and it is driving me nuts! I want to start planning, but it is too far away to do anything. Plus, where does the time go? Is it already Christmas? December came out of no where! Is it true that the older you get, the faster time flies? A year seems like forever when you talk about it but last summer seemed like only a couple of weeks ago. What happened? Am I really going to be 30 in 2008?

481 one days. People tell me that they will fly by, but it seems like they are crawling instead. When summer comes I will be planning and organizing and then heading to Italy, and then it will seem like no time at all. But, on rainy days like today, it feels like summer will never get here and that our wedding is a world away . . .
