**Rob,** I had no idea Mel Brooks movies got you in the mood. Why don’t you ever tell me these things? 😛

My perfect night out:

Dinner out in a restaurant with a cozy atmosphere and a few drinks to set the mood. Comedy club after dinner, more drinks.  
Drive home and have some more drinks. Hot wild monkey sex all night long.

So, if you have enough drinks like that, does that mean you won’t know that you’re having wild monkey sex with an _actual_ monkey?

Do the drinks help with the emotional pain one feels when one wakes up the next morning and notices a trail of banana peels leading to the shower?

These metaphors have always confused me…

Seeing as how Mrs. Jim and I just got back from vacation last month I still have vivid memories of a several of perfect nights out. We were in Summit County Colorado and managed to catch the Aspens’ fall color.

After a good hike 6-8 hour in the Ten Mile Range we’d go for a nice soak in the hot tub. A quick shower followed by a beer or two at a local brew pub with some others . Then, dinner at a nice Italian restaurant, just the two of us. Finally, returning home and sitting on the balcony watching Lake Dillon shimmer in the moonlight. No pressure no worries and all the while knowing I could do it again the next day.

Let’s see. First of all, send the kid off to grandparents’ for the night. Then, a quiet candlelight dinner at home with SO. Followed by evening out at the theater or opera. Come home and slow dance on the back porch for a while. When it starts raining on this warm summer night, a long, drawn out striptease ensues (we mustn’t ruin the dress, after all). Passionate lovemaking followed by hours of cuddling – good conversation interrupted periodically by further lovemaking. Falling asleep naked in eachothers arms.

My own personal slice of heaven.

I guess we all know what **misstee** has on her mind:D

**kizarvexius** has taken the words right out of my head

But on a realistic evening I would have to say:

Kids off to bed by 8pm----- maybe a game of battleship  
and then a little time in the hot tub with my honey:) 🙂  
a perfect night out???

obviously with out the kids:D —maybe dinner out and a moovie, then hit the casino to blow you last $20…

Take the long way home and pick the wildest spot you can think of (in public of course) to park and do the “nasty”  
**stormchaser** has left the building

This all seems familiar to me. 😉

Dressing up to go dancing, maybe have a light dinner first, perhaps an early movie if we can get it in before dancing starts.

Maybe a drink or two and then to the dance hall. Hopefully one with a DJ instead of a band (Anchorage bands all suck horribly, but then, after December I won’t have to worry about that!!!), and then dancing.

Anything, as long as at some point in the night out, there’s a good bit of DANCING!!!
