Waking up

So as I'm trying to get myself motivated and out of bed this morning, my wonderful wife decides to ask me a question. Let me play it out for you:

Her: Do you remember where you were 5 years ago right now?
Me: mmm... sleeping
Her: Do you remember where?
Me: (after thinking a minute)... in the hospital
Her: (laughter)

To bring some of you up to speed. We were married 5 years ago tomorrow, and 5 years ago yesterday I had my bachelor party. Yes, the party got to the point where 5 years ago this morning I awoke to find myself in the hospital. For anyone who is going to get married in the future - don't let your bachelor party get this far. Trust me. When a nurse tells you that your blood alcohol level was .34, then you know that your party went to far. When people can still smell the alcohol on your breath the night AFTER the party, then you know you drank too much. When your "friends" try to convince you to NOT tell your future wife about the party, then you know that it may be time to look at new friends. While it was a VERY, VERY crappy way to start off a marriage, I am glad that we are both able to laugh at it now. I also consider myself to be truly blessed by God to have such a wonderful woman in my life. She has supported me through everything and loves me more than I thought humanly possible.

On that sappy note, time to end the coffee break and get back to work. Enjoy your holiday weekend. Adios.
