DOARS- Week 3 Day 4 -The Big 2.0

Dear Diary,

Today I have been married for two days. It's almost unbelievable right? Well, you could at least try to believe it. I mean, I'm even going (trying to go) by Lynn Sw0rd now.

By the way, I have got to say that I love waking up next to him in the mornings. I told him as much when I was flirting with him. Isn't is sweet that he listened to me? C'mon, cut him some slack! I bet even if he had been awake before me, he would have stayed in bed just to watch me wake up. He totally would have. Shut up. He would have. Yes, yes he would. 

Ok, so maybe I'm trying to convince myself, but still. I guess we'll probably find out someday. And here is where you remind me that even though I complain when he leaves me without saying anything, I do it every morning, or have since we got married. Yeah, yeah, I know. Double standard. Whatever. I have better things to do than watch him sleep. I mean, really. He may be my favorite guy around, but I still have a life.

So while he was sleeping, I left to go sing to the kids at the hospital. They didn't pay me with anything but the children's love. Actually it was really touching. I genuinely felt bad for the little guys. I really hope that my kids are healthy, wait... no, I mean, if I have kids I hope they're healthy. I'm SO not planning on having any. I mean, yes, it's true I married Cycl0n3 and I said that was never going to happen, I think I fell in love with him, even, another thing that wasn't going to happen. He managed to grow something in my garden, another impossibility, but kids? Uh, no. Still not in my plans... no matter how adorable and great a father Cycl0n3 would be. *Sigh* Man, he would be an awesome father.

Well, we had our first big disappointment after getting married. Cycl0n3 broke our toilet. That was a big let down. I really didn't think that he'd break anything after moving in. I mean... he was Cycl0n3, did he even use toilets enough to break them? *snicker snicker*

Before I could embarrass him (and myself) by laughing hysterically at him, I went to write thank you notes to our friends that sent us wedding presents. Actually this kind of stunk because we didn't actually get any gifts, and I had to write like 10 thank you notes to all of my friends basically thanking them for... what exactly? They didn't come to my wedding, they didn't send any presents, they hadn't said congratulations on my recent marriage, and they forced me to take 2 days off work for a "honeymoon" that they didn't send me on.

Why was I thanking them?
Well... hmm.... I guess Cycl0n3 and I were using our honeymoon time pretty well. I mean we went on a date to the gym yesterday, and then we went to a party, we had plans of spending the day together alone today, so I shouldn't complain too much. Actually having a few days off to get used to being married was pretty cool. I guess that's what I was thanking them for? Oh, did I forget to mention that all of my friends are my co-workers and boss? Yeah, that's where the work tie-in came from.

Now you may be wondering why exactly I was doing laundry again. To be honest it was because I wasn't so sure who that bed came from and I didn't get the chance to ask. On the off chance (wait, wasn't it more likely from the gnomes than Cycl0n3?) that it was from the gnomes, I decided to show them my gratitude. Though I must say, I was earnestly wishing for a new washing machine. The old tin bucket was horrible. It made sooo much noise, it leaked all over the place... and Cycl0n3 couldn't stand the thing. Well, I couldn't either, but I found it more bothersome that he couldn't. It simply would not do for much longer.

Now I know you may have been wondering where Cycl0n3 was all day. I have two answers for you, which you may have already guessed. 1) He slept in until 2 pm and 2) he was out in his garden after waking up.

I never realized how attractive gardening could be. I think that would probably be one of my favorite pastimes. Not gardening, but watching Cycl0n3 garden, that is. I have to laugh a little bit because I just thought of a dirty joke I could make about that. Heh. I'll keep it to myself, there are some jokes that even I won't make.

Let's not get too sidetracked, after the garden was tended to, we decided to work out together. The couple that works out together stays together, right? I think I've heard that somewhere... Anyways, after working out together again, and Cycl0n3 getting way more into it than he had the other day, I decided that I liked him best when he was working out and second best when he was gardening. Though really the two activities were fun to watch. Hmm.... maybe I just liked watching him. Wait? Did that make me sound like a stalker?

At any rate, after working out, despite the fact that neither of us had been up for even 12 hrs, we decided to retire for the evening.

We had a great night.

Blissfully happy,

Lynn Sw0rd
