The morning after the wedding, as Radley was pouring his cereal, he said, “Good morning, Stepmom!”
It was cute. Nothing had changed, yet it had.
The Monday after the wedding at a meeting, I introduced myself as “Thoughtsy Appear.” My coworkers responded with “Who is that?” until I corrected my name to “Thoughtsy Sutherland.”
But I think the best (i.e., worst) title slip-up took place just a couple days after the wedding.
Kiefer: I guess I can’t call you my fiancee anymore.
Thoughtsy: What?! Why?
Kiefer: Seriously?
Thoughtsy: Oh…right…because we got married Saturday. Oops…I knew that.
We didn’t have a trampoline at our wedding. That’s my excuse for forgetting.
I swear my natural hair color is not blond.
Sorry, Kelso. You have some competition.

Wait, there WASN’T a trampoline at your wedding? Then what was I bouncing on the entire time? Oh right, must have been all that acid I dropped right before you walked down the aisle. By the way, I hope you and that lizard are very happy together!

No, it wasn’t a trampoline. The bruises are almost healed now.

There was a lizard? Ewwwww….

Radley’s adorable, especially when he’s holding a puppy. Or lip-syncing blurred lines with his necktie around his head.
Who brings a puppy to a wedding? Not me, that’s who.
I was planning to refer to you in an upcoming post as Thoughtsy Appear-Sutherland, but I’ve been wondering about the hyphen.
October 16th, 2013 at 8:00 am
Not hyphen for me. I want my last name to be as short as possible.

Hey-o! Comment DOMINATION! My uniboob salutes you! 😀
I think it took about 3 years for me to get used to my married name. Now, 5+ years later, it feels more my own than my maiden name. Changing the name everywhere (initially) is such a pain, though.
October 16th, 2013 at 8:02 am
I’m still changing it. Just when I think I’m done, I see my old name somewhere else.
October 15th, 2013 at 9:28 am
I probably would have done and said the thing. haha its really cute though.

It’s a wierd adjustment. Way back in The Day, a week or two after my wedding, I mis-introduced my new mate thusly: “This is (her name), my fiance. WIFE! WIFE!”

Boo messed up the other day, and Kiefer’s response was “Don’t mention the irlfriendga in front of the ifewa.” Or however Pig Latin works.

I still catch the Husband occasionally saying to his friends, “Yeah I’m going to go hang out with my girlfriend…I mean wife. I’m going with my wife. I don’t have a girlfriend. Just a wife. Yeah…”

I knew I forgot something at my wedding. Dang it, I didn’t have a trampoline at my wedding either. That would have increased the awesome factor by like a hundredfold. But, I have accepted my married name and forget my maiden name – at least until the credit card company sends me more junk mail. Le sigh.

Have you decided to go with “evil” or “cruel” as a step-mom?
October 16th, 2013 at 3:14 am
I vote for “wicked”.
October 16th, 2013 at 9:20 am
Good to know! I will reserve one for my wedding next year. Do moon bounces count?
October 16th, 2013 at 3:14 pm
As I always say, it’s better to be Kelso then Fez.
October 18th, 2013 at 12:28 pm
I referred to my husband as my boyfriend….even though we’ve been married over 7 years.
