When Married Couples Go On A Date July 22, 2007
It is a moonless beach night. The only lights on the water flicker down from the pier. The waves crash in succession, a rolling welcoming call to romance to those relaxing upon the darkened shore.
She: Isn’t it so nice out?
He: Yeah. Doesn’t it feel great to just lie down in the sand and look up at the palm trees?
She: They’re beautiful. It reminds me of when we went to Tahiti. (She attempts to snuggle) That was such a fun time.
He: Yeah, remember when we tried to go on that sunset sail and you were all sick and gripping the rails and turning green and I was like, “Someone get this woman a bucket! A bucket!” (Laughs) Remember that?
She: (Sighing) Yes. I remember.

L’amour!
a bucket… how romantic.
viva romance, in whatever fashion or accessory.
Men!
So did they bring you a bucket?
I think a small bucket filled with empty bottles (or beer bottle or two refilled with water and recapped - would be a “romantic” return gift for the husband.
Some people just have a gift for creating ambiance and romance don’t they?
such chivalry!
Men really don’t have a clue some times.
PS. Thanks for the comment the other day…It’s been a long week.
Ah, the romance!
At least he shouted for a bucket for you! I can just hear Barbra singing “Memories.”
I tagged you for a meme here:

That there is true love…
In a bucket…
Men can always find THAT part of a good story to point out.
Unromantic freaks, they are.
Veronica: Yes, they brought me a bucket, and my husband even held my hair back and took care of relieving me of the bucket once I had used it. He has also never eaten paella since.
I can picture it clearly…
It’s those special shared moments that really make a marriage…
