How’s Married Life?

This question has become the norm in our lives for the past few weeks.  I chuckle at this question considering Vero and I have been together for seven years now.  We live together.  We own a house together.  We watch TV together.  We read comic books together.  One of these statements are not true.

I suppose years ago it was different…a lot of people got married within a year or two of meeting one another.  They were still trying to figure out who this person was.  Perhaps they haven’t even lived together by this point.

So years ago: “How’s married life?” equalled “Dude, are you surviving after moving in with the woman?”

Now that is the real question!  Of course everyone who moves in with one another have some issues to sort out when it first starts up.  I, for one, hate cleaning the house.  So I make this face like I sucked a lemon when I hear the words “Parents are coming!  Need to clean the house!”.  However, that same voice inside my head is just outside my head.  J

In the future, when I hear this question posed to me, I’m going to start inventing great stories like “Well, we’ve taken up stunt driving.” Or “Married life is like a circus.  First there are midgets (or dwarves), then there are elephants, and then there are clowns in a small car.”  Then people will wonder what the heck is going on.
