I will back up and tell a little about the past weekend, but had to get this out this morning. Also want to get back to Forrest's post because there are some points in there that go with this past weekend.
Those of you that follow my thread know the wife and I do a lot together...take off for over nights, dinners out, dinners and cooking nights at home, concerts, NYC....and lots of partying. Yes she is a AWAW...read my story.
For whatever reason....avoiding the real issues, self medicating, re-bonding...we need to start AA...whatever....mixed in with all the time together is a bit too much alcohol....but, we have had some amazing times over the last 5 or 6 months since the bomb, she knows it and still will tell me "don't get your hopes up".
The other day I posted about her comment in reference to "No one getting it like us"....food, music, entertainment, etc.
Back to the point of all this....sitting at the kitchen table yesterday....I said "you know we always say we can't find anyone who likes to to the same things as us, likes the same foods or music as us....maybe that is a good thing?"....she laughed and ask what I meant.
I said "Well, we spend way too much money on dinners out. We have champagne tastes and a beer budget....we drink way too much and stay up too late when we do...we will pack up and take off for a day...or two, at the drop of a hat, and have a tendency to let the day to day stuff slide so we can go have some fun. Could you imagine what would happen if we found another couple who was the same as us??? That could be bad...LOL"
She looked me in the eye and said "You know all that really matters right now is that you(points at me) and I(points at herself) like doing the things we do and have each other to do them with".
I don't know if she even realized it came out the way it did, or how she meant it, but I was a bit dumbfounded.
Have to go work a little, but will come back and tell a little bit about the weekend. Just thought that was kind of cool, especially since it came so close to the comment about no one "getting it like we do" the other day.
