My new blog, http://ashleyswanson.blogspot.com/!
There's a few reasons I created this baby (getting married, finding out that marriage is entertaining, wanting something more focused, etc.). I haven't decided whether that blog is slowly going to replace this one entirely, but for now, I hope you enjoy it. :)

Where to start
Shamefully, it's been more than a month since my last post. There have been a lot of changes goin' on in my world, and I've spent hours with a blank blog post sitting before me, with my brain's train of thought feeling just about as empty. But, feelin' motivated (or sick of being lazy), here's my tackle. Let's play catch up.
1. I graduated, but that's kind of old news. There's my cheap shot at getting a list going.
2. I got married - woah baby! E and I tied the knot, signing our lives away to one another, or, maybe that sounds too dreary, like we were unwilling. Trust me, we're married and happy as clams. Biggest surprise so far? Cohabitation with the husband has been nowhere near as difficult as I predicted. I've got a dad, and I've got a brother; I know how the male species can live. I've also always known that E is fairly neat, quiet, and will pick up after himself, even if it's later than I'd like him to. As long as I keep his appetite satisfied, clean his clothes, and shower him with affection, he is one happy camper in the our newlywed Swanson campground (Really, we only have a two bedroom apartment; please don't show up in Kansas with a pop-up camper and 20 of your closest friends or family. Campfires and s'mores are welcome). Thanks to my wonderful friends Lindsay Koedyker and Kailyn Baum, here are a few glimpses of our day.
3. We moved. Our humble abode is in Overland Park, Kansas. At first, we were nervous. But nooooow.....lovin' it! (Friends, anyone? Fast forward to 1:10.) Aside from the whole lack of a job thing I'm rockin' right now, life here is wonderful. Come visit!
4. And last, I'm starting a new blog! I've been wrestling with the idea of trying to do something that is more themed and consistent for 2 months now. After some serious mind mapping yesterday, my brain child is looking more complete. Stay tuned for more.
Thanks for reading my listed update on life, and maybe we'll talk again soon.
