Out On The Town

Heather and I went on a date Saturday. It's very hard to unwind when you are used to chasing children around and it took a while to relax. But we had fun, going to IKEA to buy office furniture (it's more romantic than it sounds, try it sometime), and then on to Slumdog Millionaire which we both really liked, hard as it is to watch (I bought the soundtrack while walking out of the theater, I liked it so much).

Our dinner plans changed when Rojo couldn't fit us in this side of the apocalypse, so we found an Italian place and juiced ourselves up with sangria instead.

It's weird going back to a time before kids, if even only for an evening. They inhabit every corner of your brain for so long that when they are not around you can't help searching for them in a most unsettling way.

All the same, these dates are something I really want to keep doing, because we both need them!
