Who is Mrs. Allen?

This question has been plaguing me for the past few weeks. People keep asking me if I feel any different after getting married. My answer is always no. Life in general is the same as it was three months ago.

Now if you ask me what my last name is, then I stumble over the answer. I have no clue! I haven't done anything towards changing my name because I had to renew my passport before our cruise in a few weeks. There was no time to change my name before renewing so I will not be tackling that until May.

I was going to go with two last names. No hyphen, just two last names. Now that I've been able to test the waters with a name I think I am going to scratch that idea. It just means I will always be confused as to what my last name is, or I will end up just using Allen anyway, so might as well just jump in and change it. However, for the time being I don't know what name to give. Legally I am still Browne, same as I ever was. What if I give the name Allen for something and then they ask for ID and I can't produce anything? I turned my car in for vallet parking and was obsessing that they wouldn't give it back to me!

So, there it is. I will be turning into Mrs. Allen soon. I have a feeling this is what I was supposed to feel like after graduating from school, like I can choose to be anything.
Now I just have to start looking for who I am. If you ask google, this is what you get:

this one is my favorite:

None of those images are me. Who knows, maybe someday I will be the top image result.....
