That was all fine and dandy when I was in high school and college and while working in consulting, but since accepting an actually sane and normal job where you're able to go home by 6pm, I've really struggled. Somehow doing something when it's not a seemingly impossible feat is just not as fun.
Stefan's the same way - the guy is a powerhouse under pressure. He had been putting off a little Investment Memo of his for months, but when he had no choice but to do it (in a timeline completely unreasonable by any normal human standards), he cranked out 20+ flawless pages of market commentary, operational overviews, and valuations in five days flat.
While our similar personalities are perfect when it comes to understanding each other, it's made planning a wedding an interesting feat.
As of one week ago, we had yet to:
- Decide on our ceremony - what it would be, who would do it, etc
- Have my dress fitted (still sitting in a box underneath my desk at work)
- Decide on a first dance
- Pick out Stefan's attire
- Buy wedding bands
But the funny thing is: it doesn't worry either of us one bit. One because we both know we'll end up getting it all done. And two (and more importantly) because we know that the worst case scenario is that we're not wearing the perfect thing or dancing to the best song or able to get my ring over those insanely large knuckles of mine (you'd have to admit - that would make for some excitement) but we're still married and that's all that really matters.
Speaking of wedding to-dos, we spent our fourth working on a little surprise wedding project. Get excited.
And then enjoying Stefan's signature steaks and the juiciest, sweetest, most succulent corn-on-the-cob I ever did taste.
How did you spend your fourth? Catching up on errands or relaxing by the pool?

I LOVE THIS ATTITUDE - pouring myself a glass of your kind of kool-aid!
