I can't believe Samantha and I have been married for almost a year. It has been a tumultuous past few months as Sam and I have struggled with what it means to be married while dealing with the stresses of work and school and everything else that has come along. It has been a rough year, but I am so glad that Sam and I got married. She has been so patient with me as I have pushed the limits of our relationship and she continues to surprise me every day with her kindness, grace and wit. I feel like we have begun to grow into one another in a way that has only recently begun to take shape.

Samantha and I got married on Saturday. Samantha is so wonderful and I feel so lucky to have her as a partner. Everything was beautiful. All the loose ends I was had gotten myself so worked up about completely ceased to be important as we walked up the surprisingly dark path through the woods into the beautiful glow of the chapel spilling over with our loving family members. The party turned out great and we both had a really good time. I'm so ridiculously happy right now I could fall over. I cannot wait until our honeymoon. In about two weeks, we are making a road trip to Marfa and it will be great to spend some focused, alone time with Sam in the desert. I wish we were there now. I'm so excited and hopeful about our future. Samantha and I are such a great team I can't wait to see what we come up with.

This is appearently a new trend in street art its pretty wonderful. Seeing all this colorful, swirly yarn adorning lamp posts and street signs and bike racks like in the image below reminds me of a few silly-surreal music videos from Michel Gondry director of films like Be Kind Rewind and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
