With one successful date under my belt, I am already experiencing dater's block. And an extreme desire to quit while we're ahead. When we got done with mini golf this weekend, the other vehicle in the parking lot was obviously a sign.
Despite my aversion to Bradley Cooper and Jessica Biel (oh how my fingers burn typing her name!), my love of everything else A-Team is powerful enough to make me want to see that movie. We immediately said we were meant to reward ourselves with our good old habitual date. It is so easy to just revert back to what is known to us.
I need to think of options... With the thunderstorms making us move up our mini golf time, we managed to beat the weather and still have a great date. I'm sure in St. Louis we may win the game, but we won't win the series (boo-ya! a baseball reference AND a Biel rant in one post!). When I moved here, I thought that the weather would be milder than northern Indiana and northern Minnesota. It's not. We may not have 6 feet of snow in the winters, but other than that, we have all the ice, thunderstorms, freezing cold, and hellfire level heat that any bipolar girl could ever want.
That means I have to think of back up plans and alternate locations for our dates.
Other than at our favorite theater.
Today my head is so wrapped around making a grocery list, remembering to remember Father's Day, and figuring out how I can get on the roof to clean the gutters (if my husband can do it, damn it, so can I... if only I didn't feel like I might pass out on the second rung of the ladder). I have to remind myself to focus on us and make time together a priority. In a fun way. Something out of our comfort zone and within our budget.
I have a couple days to think. Guess it turns out I need them!
