Date Night!

So my wife and I have a standing appointment for a date night at least twice a month. Usually we head to the movies or go for grab dinner, sometimes we while away several hours in a Barnes and Noble with a Starbucks or the like, you know the usual. Given that we are both on a health kick (well more so than usual) we decided to go for a run together and my wife suggested on the trails at Cheeseboro Canyon…eh yeah ok honey!

So we spent a very pleasant 90 minutes on a local trail chatting and catching up on everything that falls between the cracks during a workweek. It was too late for a movie so I picked up some yummy dinner from Wholefoods, sent the sitter home early and we plonked ourselves down in front on the TV to catch up on our ever increasing backlog from NetFlix, Vantage Point, not a bad movie and quite an unusual style.

Who says the romance is dead!

  2. I think it's great that you two make the time to do that, and awesome that you share common interests -- even on date night you managed a run together! That's amazing!

  3. You guys are the modern day Bogart and Bergman. Minus the smoking and stuff.

  4. You are fortunate to share the same passion. I always think it would be so much easier to keep on track if "the other" doesn't want to go for coffee and desert all the time:-)

  5. One of my favorite sayings is, "the way to keep 'em is the way you got 'em!) Romance should never die if that's how the relationship started. ;)

  6. I hear ya on backlogs for NetFlix. Currently date night is spent untangling the TiVo backlog first...

  7. Maybe "Dr. Drew"'s Love Line needs to be "Dr. Stu's Love-Run Line?"
