bookshelf envy

i used to tell myself when i graduated from college and got a real job, i'd read more, since i didn't have time to read in school. now i'm gonna take back that statement and substitute in, 'when i get married, then i will read more.' a famous person once told me- 'you make time for things that are important to you.' i believe this wholeheartedly, so the obvious assumption is that reading isn't important. it may not be right now- but it definately was when i was younger, and i hope, seriously, to pick it back up when i get married. (i'm currently filling my time with reading wedding blogs, magazines, and spending time with the fiancee). i'm clinging hopefully, to the fact, that it will get ten thousand times easier when we live under the same roof. we try and spend most waking seconds with eachother now a days, knowing that at the end of the day, one of us (usually him) drives home in the wee hours of the morning. its not a pleasant pattern, but we do love our quality time together- that makes those drives all worthwhile. 
hold me accountable to this reading thing.. i mean, i've always dreamed of floor to ceiling bookshelves in my home filled to the brim with books. that's not happening unless we/i actually start reading.. then again, getting b to read, might just be a miracle. maybe i'll make that my next new years resolution for 2012.

on a side note- we cake tasted today. most fun wedding planning event we've done together since we got engaged. great bonding experience! i highly recommend it to all engaged folks.
