I'm that girl who never dreamed of getting married, settling down and having children. In fact, I dreamed the opposite. I dreamed of traveling the world, of writing, of wielding my sexual power over as many men who would fall for it. Of loyalty to friends first, all others after. Of complete and total independence, unfettered by man (or family) drama.
Then, in full-on prowl mode, I met a boy. A nice boy. At a bar. And I felt a connection like nothing I'd ever allowed myself to feel.
He stuck with me when I went back to college, with all those life-changing, eye-opening, "aha" moments that define the liberal arts experience. Revelations that change your world view, and elevate your self awareness.
Ultimately, he followed me to three states. And finally back to the state (and city) where it all started.
Five years into our marriage, we have the house. The dog. And the careers. Now what?
