Who needs a hobby, like tennis or philately?

Well, dating meant sometimes doing things that someone else wanted to do and that is work -- being married means we do what I like. I also like not feeling like I have to entertain the other person all the time -- it is okay to just sit and say absolutely nothing with no questions asked.
I like not having to "fake it" with somebody. I don't have to "be on" all the time. When you date it seems like the slightest thing can cause the other person to want to know what's wrong -- being married means that someone just leaves you the hell alone because he knows to.
Being married I get all the good parts of dating, like sex and going where I want to go and do what I want to do, and none of the bad, like having to explain working hours to a beau or feeling like I have to hide certain character uniquities (hah! beat that scrabble score).
On CBK and private schools and all that -- I went public all the way through law school and I am hotter than she was :D. Having no pedigree has its benefits -- there is nothing to live up to and if you even remotely make it in the world you are the family hero. No expectations and failure is always an acceptable outcome. Besides, I never cottoned much to the Kennedys and would hate to feel like I had to marry one of them. She seemed sort of kinda cool though and the coke thing doesn't bother me (to each her own). If some people want to be uberskinny or have cosmetic surgery or do whatever, who am I to judge??
edited to add that the PLiFfy one is right, some of us belong in public school -- otherwise he would be celibate. Public school girls need loving too, and we try harder (but none of that assfucking crap, I went to a "good" public school).
