@accidentallyyours:...@Musing: You're so funny!<br /><br />@accidentallyyours: We used to be better about unplanned dates. A lot of this has to do with how busy we've both become with our careers and how tired we are on the weekends. It gets harder and harder to talk yourself into going out on a date when all you want to do is not leave the couch and relax. Plus, I'm on my feet all the time for work, so I really love to loaf on the weekends. We were just getting lazy about being spontaneous. I imagine we won't always be so organized about things, but for now, this is a fun thing to be organized about. Plus, it gives the opportunity to actually plan neat day trips and stuff, whereas dates before were spontaneous dinners and movies. <br /><br />@Stacy Marie: HOLLA! Yeah, I try to find free stuff we can do, too. But all of our friends live far away, too. It's all about trying to maximize the fun, which we were not doing a very good job of. I just think it's hilarious though because when you're single you wish you were in a nonstop fun couple and when you're in a couple, you sometimes miss the spontaneity and fun of being single. Grass is always greener, I guess. : )Marty J.

Now that I work for the area Convention and Visitors Bureau, I always know all the free stuff going on, so hopefully I can get us out the door more starting this weekend!Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15928980911249081834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902153394142261211.post-88950163944646937602011-08-22T09:12:41.816-05:002011-08-22T09:12:41.816-05:00We actually were at dinner last week with some fri...We actually were at dinner last week with some friends and, in some story, mentioned how the hubster had done something for me recently (I don't even remember what . . .). The wife (this couple has been married for about four years now), interrupted to say - "you two are totally still dating, aren't you?"<br /><br />Truthfully, we still have unplanned date nights pretty frequently, but then we've only been married for about two and a half months so . . . who knows how that will eventually shake out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902153394142261211.post-84542793615198483342011-08-22T05:18:27.739-05:002011-08-22T05:18:27.739-05:00Sorry but all I can think of now is "Man, I ...Sorry but all I can think of now is "Man, I can't wait to settle down and not date anymore."!!!
