Today was pretty awesome.
First, my grandmother turned 89 — WOO!
Next, The Boss and I celebrated our 11 Monthaversary, which was exciting, but then kind of sad because when we talked, he was all, “Hey, this is our last Monthaversary,” and then I got all mad because I thought he was going to leave me for a life-sized plastic Barbie in L.A., so I started yelling, “I don’t need you anyway!!!” and he was all, “What? No. It’s because next month we’ll have an Anniversary,” and then I was like, “Oh, eh..heh…just kidding.”
But then I got really sad because I don’t want to be married for a year. I want to be married for three months all the time because that’s when you get all the attention.
Stranger: How long have you been married for?
Me: Three months
Stranger: AWWWWWWWWWWW! Omigod, that is SOOO cute. You are such a newlywed.
Stranger: Kate! Come over here!
Stranger: She’s only been married for three months.
Stranger’s Friend, Kate: AWWWWWWWWW! That is soooo sweet.
See what I mean?
Now it’s going to be all:
Stranger: How long have you been married for?
Me: A year!
Stranger: Aw man. So tell me, is what they say true — you know, about the first year being the hardest?
Me: Umm. Well, no. I don’t know.
Stranger: Sucks. Before you know it you’ll be dead.
That’s probably why your parents tell you not to talk to strangers.
Next.
Guess what, Readers?!?!?
THE BOSS FOUND AN APARTMENT!
So exciting, right? I know!
I feel like we should get in a huddle, jump up and down, and scream in loud, high-pitched girl voices.
I spent the last few days packing, and turns out the shipping companies are turning out figures beyond our budget, so now I have to fit my whole life into two checked bags and one carry-on.
That should be fun.
The Boss is moving his stuff into our new place tomorrow, and as he was driving around the neighborhood he goes, “There’s a place down the street where you can buy medical marijuana, and right next to it is a halal meat market.”
Cali is going to be awesome, ya’ll!

do you think the smell from the medical marijuana place will get into the meat?
I’ve been married over 13 years and I think newlyweds are cute!

And congrats on finding an apartment! But at least now Inshallah you’ll get to spend your anniversary in Cali with your husband!
I did a little dance and a YAYYYYY with a fist in the air at your good news. Im happy for you.
Salams Sabrina,
once you move to L.A. check out Sofra Kabab Express its on venice theres a couple good places in culver city, but that place is tasty and theres a halal market right next door which is lovely. Theres also a mosque near by, King Fahad its a beautiful mosque lol I could go on because I live in hollywood but inshallah your move & stay will go well
Your blog always makes me laugh, “Oh…eh..heh..just kidding” hahaa
But one whole year is amazing! You should be celebrating!
I’ve not even been married for 3 months yet! I’m kind of looking forward to the day I can go “wow..it’s been a whole year”.
Happy birthday to your grandmother!
California looks amazing, I hope the move will be as smooth as possible and that you and your husband will love the new place..

I wonder if the meat will taste funny? Maybe they should advertise: ” Meat seasoned with special seasoning!”…
Dude(dude? I’ve been reading your blog too much)! Your grandmother and my great-grandmother are practically the same age!
And congratulations! Yay for apartment!
But does the halal market have a ‘Buy one lamb, get a 10 ounce of weed free’ deal?
Not that I’d now anything about weed that is .. yup..
I’m so excited for you both!
I know you’ll be glad to be in the same state again.
Have a safe trip, be careful and enjoy yourself.
P.S. Make sure that’s really oregano you’re buying at the market…lol.
