hey jealousy
T and i were emailing today and she said that she went on a date with her hubs last night. was ok at first ... then all-of-a-freakin'-sudden, i felt a little green troll grow inside of me. i can't remember a time hubs and i went on a date. no, wait, i can remember, it was our anniversary last year. we went our separate ways in the day, met for lunch at borders then went separate ways again after. the only convee we prob had was ...
me : good steak huh!, hubs : yeah good steak.
so i called hubs and told him that we need to go on dates pronto ie we have to start this month. i almost made it law!
10 mins later, i called him again. i was paranoid - i felt my world closing in on me! shared my thots with hubs then we chuckled and agreed that while most couples recharge and bond by spending time together on dates, we prefer our alone time away from each other. space from life and space from each other, i think, actually brings us together. go figure!
i love him more knowing that he gives me the time to do my happy things. and i think he feels the same when he can bask alone at starbucks with his tall black and lappy. it's no wonder we married each other. i don't think any other man would geddit.
having said that, i just needed to post this pic. gin blossoms is one of my fave bands. happy tunes with depressing lyrics. the story of my life : )
disclaimer : erm ... incase readers get sensitive ... i think all couples should indulge in what will work for them and not let green trolls rule their lives : )

hmmm... that elusive just right balance between together time and alone time. Tougher when both have different needs no?
and yet so much easier when both are on the same page : )
the moral of the story esssss.... scorps should only marry their kind coz only "we" truly understand the pleasure of the comfortable silence.
