Can I just say... I love Jeff. Seriously, the man makes me completely happy (when he isn't making me completely crazy of course).

Tonight is date night. :) We're going out for pizza at AJ's (local joint) cause Wednesday is 1/2 price pizza night. Then we're gonna catch a movie over at the secondun theater (tickets are $2.50 ea). So, for under $20, we get to go out for dinner and a movie. I love it!

I realize this doesn't seem like that big a deal to most people, but I LOVE that Jeff is willing to take me out. Granted, I'm just as happy watching a movie at home or something, but this is a whole new experience for me. i still pinch myself that this is my life. :)

That's so awesome Libby! I loved it when DH and I were dating, and we don't get out as much now, but I LOVE it when we do!! It just feels good, you know?

That's me, too, Sasha. My ex and I never did *anything* together, so I love doing even the most mundane tasks together with jeff (we've been together 9 months now). So when we get to do something FUN like dinner and a movie, it's just icing on the cake!

I'm smiling, too, Celeste. :D :D :D

I totally know what you mean, Jae! I told Jeff that I don't want this to change when we get married. LOL

See, thats one thing that now that my dh and I are split up, I wonder. I am like, why when he goes out, does he never ask if I want to come along with him. Sure, we have a child and I worked nights forever, but he never asked if I wanted to go with. Bothers me now.

I'm so happy for you Libby!!!

We go out occasionally, we stopped for quite awhile ... but it basically took a trip to Disney in 2009 to rekindle that old flame ... so it's nice when we do go out. Generally it is just for dinner ... our movie interests are pretty much total opposite the spectrum. lol

Hey Libby ... now that you are in Wichita ... you'll have the Wichita Homeschool Robotics team there ... they are a really strong BEST team ... really BIG team...and a hub there as well. I know, not your obsession ... but I thought I would tell you about them.

Awww.... you two are so cute together, I'm so happy for you!!!

My hubby had a plan that we would do a date night very month this year... some of them did include kiddo... but it is just nice to get some time together. Otherwise most nights we are in the same room in the house, but each on the computer. LOL! We email each other... ha, ha...

HAHAHA That's how we are, Rebecca. Our computers sit right beside each other, so he works or plays a game while I"m online, too. :) I love it!

FYI pizza was YUMMY. Movie was lame (Grown Ups), but it was still a fun date. It was nice to get out for the night. :)

I totally get that, Mari. My ex and I never went out together either. I think that's why I love it so much that Jeff takes me out now.

That's awesome Libby! Our date nights now are almost always concerts (like tonight!), though we used to go to dinner and a movie alot. I can't remember the last time I went to the Palace to see a movie, it's a wonder that place is even still open :D

HA! I know!! It's not the most comfortable theater, but for $2.50, I can't complain. I will say that I'm glad we didn't pay more for the movie because it wasn't that great. LOL We ended up seeing Grown Ups. It was just really slow. We still had a great time though!

that is AWESOME....we aren't movie kinda people, but maybe we will try to make it to a movie this weekend...just to go!!! might be fun...we get out every once in awhile, but with 4 kids, it's rough! Good thing my DD is 17 and we usually bribe her to watch them! It's fairly easy :p

Isn't it great? My DH and I still do lots together (even ditching the kids with grandparents when pssible to go out) Our favorite is still dinner and a movie... :)
