Hovering pays off...I guess

So that anxious watching of the mailbox is over! It will now get ignored, again, except for the bi-monthly check of it for bills (that we don't like seeing anyway). The marriage certificate is here!

Now I get to beg my boss for a half day off, so that I can go the the Social Security office (which I hear is an experience like going to the DMV, ie: lots of waiting for your number to be called) to get my name changed. That is only step one of the long process, in which I will have to wait a few weeks for the new ss card to arrive anyway (more patience).

I see why people get married before having kids...the entire process of planning, execution and the aftermath (name changing) are lessons in patience.
