I am so with you on grossing out the kids. Last night before dinner the dh and I danced in my office. We were accompanied by Michael Buble and a bunch of eeeeews coming from the kitchen. As far as geek dating...we go for coffee. Or watch movies together. Or basically do anything we can to bug each other - in the fun way. Let me tell you, I think laughter is a prime ingredient in a lot of successful marriages. I know the day we stop laughing, we're in trouble! Holly – we just had our 14th anniversary.

Makes sense to me to do ordinary things together because it may seem little, but the key part is you're spending it together.

I so get that!! My dh went to program that took him away from home for four months....while we were in the midst of renovating a new house...and I was under contract! It was a lot, but just talking to him at night made it all seem okay. But being with him in person is a much better fix! LOL I'm glad you and your dh have found a way to make his absences work for you...and hey, every time he comes home it can be like a honeymoon all over again! Oh, and speaking of geek dates...we're on our way to Wegmans this morning, then to a fall-fest! Yep, geek dating all over the place! Holly Julie,

Thank you for brightening my morning. My husband and I have been married for 12 years (we most definitely didn't marry in our teens), but as his job takes him away for about 6 months out of the year, I guess we've really only been married 6. With him away so much, and me lost in my own little fictional worlds, we have to make an effort to spend time with each other, even if it's just lying on the couch watching a movie. Even if I'm crazy-stressed or we've been grumbling about all the normal daily hiccups, a couple of hours together always reminds me why I fell in love with him. But what really gets me is seeing him and our son together...I fall more deeply in love with him every time. Thanks, Holly...here's to another quarter of a century!
