We’ve got some awesome dinnertime conversation going on right now. When you never really leave the house, things can become “a bit limited.” Outside of my husband, son, daughter, and dog, the primary players in my life right now are Mickey Mouse and the mail lady (though, in an uncharacteristic expansion of his repertoire, my […]
11 year anniversary
We completely ace out anniversaries around here. Last year, for our 10th, we went big and stayed up all night–granted, it was with a sleepless 2 week old newborn, but hey, let the record show we rocked out the wee hours 😉 So honestly, I have no idea how crazy things will get for our […]
The Next Food Network Star
Source It’s not easy for my husband and I to find a television show we can both enjoy. It’s even harder to find common territory when it comes to reality TV (he’s more “let’s blow something up”, while I’m more “which guy will she pick?!”) But every summer we can both happily settle in […]
Adult Conversation
How I envision any important messages will need to be conveyed in our homefor the foreseeable future In short, adult conversation doesn’t exist when you have young kids in the home. One morning recently my husband started telling me a story (obviously about our kids, b/c what else would we talk about?) Husband: “So Isaac started […]
Healthy TV Viewing?
My unsolicited thoughts on why TV watching is healthy for adults: Enjoy a program together 🙂 Watching a TV show is awesome for couples to do together. If your lives are in any way over-hectic, it can be a really good thing for us to have a dedicated time to plop ourselves down on the couch and […]
When Your Spouse is Smarter Than You Are
My husband interacts with other adults on a regular basis. This simple fact alone defines very different cognitive lives for us. After an exhaustingly long day, one night last week we just crashed on the couch after putting the kids to bed. Something popped into my head that would be great for a blog post, […]
Hot Saturday Night Date
Notice the look of pure joy and elationon his face! My husband and I recently scored a child-free Sat. night. I know. I KNOW. So how did we celebrate? Yes, we spent the evening ripping nasty old wallpaper off our living room wall. Ah, the glamour of our lives…my husband was irked that we were […]
Not The Time, Honey
You all know what I’m talking about: you have something you DESPERATELY need to discuss with your spouse, but when you try to bring it up, you are welcomed with a big fat “Not The Time”. Which, honestly, is fantastic b/c of course, let’s just postpone the decision on whether or not your daughter’s […]
Sex Sells
I was reading about how to increase traffic on your blog. One tidbit of advice that repeatedly cropped up was “sex sells”. Really? Okay–here is your sex. I decided to be adventurous and order some new underwear (albeit with a Groupon and free shipping code). My husband was folding laundry the other night (I am […]
Super Tuesday
When I was young and “brilliant”, I decided I was going to change the world and headed off to a PolySci major in DC. Quickly disillusioned by the inefficiency of actually working in politics, my political obsession now translates into a stubborn refusal to schedule eye doctor or hair appointments on Super Tuesday and sending […]
