Status: Married (the Nonsense in Between)

Status: Married

Dominic and I are "married" as of this afternoon. Let me explain...
Today I was at the insurance agent's office having Mia and Frank's (those are our cars' names) insurance combined. In the process, the agent and I made some small talk when the subject of marriage came up. I told him that we're getting married in September. His eyes lit up and he asked: "have you lived together for more than a year?" yes "have bills/accounts in both names?" yes/yes. Then he explained that under those circumstances alone the state of Colorado will recognize us as married if we choose to accept that status. He also explained that changing our status to "married" on the insurance application would reduce our rate significantly. You can call us Mr. and Mrs. Filosa now. But dont worry we'll still have a wedding and with all the money we're saving on insurance maybe we can even afford to serve our guests food.

You sound like a Geico commercial... Congratulations on the marriage and insurance savings. All you need now is a kid for tax credits.

You scared me when I read the headline. I was pissed, I thought you eloped. New Mexico has the same laws, so Sean and I have been married for like 100 years now. Anyway congrats on your savings.
