Nuts, On Dates

For the first time in quite a long, long while, I have a date this weekend! Now, before you go starting ugly rumors, this date is with my lovely redheaded wife. So why the big deal? Well...

...everyone who has children knows that your social life goes right down the toilet along with the flushable wipes and the occasional toy. Heather and I have not been out on a real date, with dinner and a movie, for...well, we can't remember the last movie we saw together that wasn't made by Pixar.

Sissy was kind enough to offer to take the girls for "a long time" on Saturday so my bride and me can paint the town red. We're going to IKEA, just for fun, and then dinner at Rojo and a movie!!! A real date!!!

So out of touch with modern culture are we, that it took us a while to go over the current crop of movies and we waded through the swamp of chick flicks and superhero films until we settled at last on Slumdog Millionaire. Seeing as this may be the last movie we get to see this year, we wanted to pick a good one.

I'm nervous! Will she like me? Where is that flower store again?

Good luck on your date! First dates are always nervewracking! :-)

Have fun at all your venues. Ikea, dinner and Slumdog Millionaire would win my heart every time! And I'm serious!

I guess I meant that so much that I had to say it twice!

You must have said it once for me!
