Today is my 5th wedding anniversary. My husband and I are going out on a (eep!) date!
We’re going out to dinner, and probably out to hear a local band. The band is so loud that we probably won’t be able to talk to each other much. But what should we talk about at dinner??
Jobs–boring. Kids–they’re fine. We both already know that.
Quick! I need ideas!
Your next vacation destination.
How traumatized the babysitter will be when you get back.
Christmas plans.
Planning a special getaway to celebrate your marriage.
What an incredible stud Zenster is.
(oh well, leave out the last one)
The weather! Or the message board. That’s all I ever talk about. 
Reminiscing about how you first met? Recounting humourous/frightening/memorable moments from your time together? Reaffirming your love for each other? Talking about all the different places you’ve lived in the last 5 years?
Me.
Happy Anniversary! Have a great time.
Tell him about the triple simulpost you just saw.
Cornuts. They are neither corn, nor nuts. Discuss.
tiggeril: We’ve already discussed you. Well, not you per se, but your condom thread.
The vacation & getaway ideas are out–we’re broke.
Christmas–check. We haven’t really discussed it yet.
Babysitter trauma–she’s sat for these monsters before. They love her. No trauma there.
Zenster the stud–well…thanks, but not tonight. Maybe when it’s not my anniversary.
what you are going to do after hearing the band.
We’re back!
We talked for a minute about Christmas.
We talked a lot about his band.
We talked about whether or not his new meds are working.
We did have a good time, though. It’s not too often we get to do this sort of thing. I work 9-5 Mon-Fri, and I bowl Monday nights. He works weird hours teaching guitar, Mon-Wed-Fri-Sat, and he gigs on Tuesdays and weekends, Sunday included. So no, we don’t get a lot of time together. The time we do have is usually in the wee hours of the morning.
All together now…
“Oh! So that’s why your post count is so high!”
