Our Anniversary Date

Well, for 2 people who have done a darn good job at "dating" each other this year, we sure pulled out all the stops on our anniversary. Yeah. Umm-hmmm.

The hubby let me sleep in, which is not good for a day that is supposed to have any resemblance to productive in it. We didn't get each other gifts. He told me he was planning on telling me he loves me and then attacking me with kisses. He then did this several times throughout the day, and it made me laugh really hard. It was more silly than Gone With The Wind.

We got ready for our day, which means we took showers and put on outside clothes (jeans vs. pajamas). We talked about having coffee at Borders. Before all the Borders are gone. Then, I remembered, it is the Saturday before Christmas. I made him drive through the mall parking lot after we decided to skip that disaster.

I love being right. CRAZY BUSY.

We're so old. We drove all the way around a mall that we knew would be busy so that we could look at it and talk about how busy it was.

I've been nagging him to get a car wash because I need to clean the interior of the car this week. See how then the whole car will be clean? If I had the ability to purr, I would purr at that thought. See how it would all come together then? Nice.

There was a massive line for the car wash, but the husband pulled up anyway. Thankfully, the wait wasn't too bad. We talked about how the other cars weren't very dirty, and how there were a few that didn't even need to be there.

Then, he sprung for the super-awesome-best-they-have-clean-that-mofo-up wash. Out of 4 wash levels, he got the best one! Swoon!

Then, we did something we haven't done a lot of since we got married. Something we did A LOT of when we were actually dating the first time around. Although we had never done it in this setting before. It's not that we aren't romantic anymore or touchy-feely, because we definitely are. We just don't do this anymore just for the sake of doing it.

We made out in the car wash. Heh heh heh. 

Our lack of making out for the sake of making out definitely needs to change.

Anyway, then, we went to Sam's Club, and we got a bunch of non-romantic things. It still counts because we went together. Magically, it wasn't that busy and we didn't have any issues with crowds or checking out. The hubby got us a box of cheesecake bites to celebrate our big day. Nice move instead of candy!

We came home and decided to watch some tv. Yes, we're back in our jammies. Netflix had sent us The Tudors season 3 and we've had the damn Hurt Locker for literally 8 weeks or something.

"We are NOT watching the Hurt Locker on our anniversary," I stated.

He agreed. The Tudors didn't seem right either. I asked him if we could watch something we own. He immediately said, "Elf!"

Awwww. My favorite holiday movie. So we watched Elf and ate cheesecake bites and sat close together on the couch, kitties on our laps and dog at our side. Home. Happy. Anniversary.
