So my health insurance is going up and I can't afford it anymore. I was planning on joining the ranks of the uninsured again and just paying more for my prescriptions and hoping I don't fall off the stage at work. My boyfriend came up to me the other day at his work (I'd come in to have lunch with him) and said,
"If we get married before April I could put you on my health insurance and it would cost half of what you're paying now with more benefits."
We've been dating for 5 years now and we've mumbled about "getting married some day" so it wasn't totally unexpected....It was so practical and so "hi we're having lunch and POW!" that I thought he was joking at first.
I mean, of course I said yes and I called both our parents and my sisters and told them he proposed. We're planning on having a celebration and a ceremony at my church later so I'm just telling folks we're engaged.
I guess I'm still just reeling. Ohmagawd, what am I DOING?! Am I really getting married at a courthouse so that I can continue health insurance?!
