"...But First Introductions!"

Hey there!
"I'm Amelia and this is my sister..."
Who is the other goose?
Comment if you know!

The Gabble sisters say introductions first! And I make it a policy to never cross a goose. So that's where I'll begin.

I know this will come as a shock to you, but I am a grad student. (I'll pause while you recover.) I study history more specifically, so you will see some thoughts (and rants) about that field on here from time to time.

I am also a new wife. My husband, who I'll call J, and I have been married less than a year. I'll talk about him and our relationship on this blog quite a bit as well.

I also hope to talk about some of the struggles and joys of being  a new wife, and a grad student in a new town. I hope to use this blog to describe my experiences to others in a way that I hope they can relate to.

The posts will be diverse. I want to share what I learn, my mistakes and triumphs here. For your entertainment largely, but also because I think there is a great deal of value in sharing one's life with others.

I hope I can occasionally share some practical things as well. (I'll admit now that many of these practical tips will be stolen from Pinterest.com or my mom.)

That said I hope I can help or at least entertain you with my antics.
