Romance In My Life

I felt so functional today. I took the Impala to Jiffy
Lube and got the oil changed, the air filter replaced and
the coolant topped off (car maintainance makes you feel so
responsible). I went to Wal-mart to pick up some things I
need for the special evening I've planned for Snookums and
I put gas in the car. Can you believe how high the gas
prices are? It's a good thing we don't have to commute
anywhere, because I don't think we could afford it if we
did. At least, it would definately hurt shelling out that
much cash for gas. As it stands now, we just sacrifice one
dinner out a month and that covers it, but I'm guessing
it's going to get worse before it gets better.

I mentioned a special evening for Snookums, well, I
thought about it this morning when I had to get up at 5am,
stumbling like a blind mole rat to go to the bathroom.
Snookums was already up with his uniform on, getting ready
for work. I realized how lucky I am to have such a good
man. So many women have no-good men in their lives that
don't have the balls to support their children or
themselves for that matter and here is my husband, up
before dawn every day, home at 4:30pm, exhausted all so we
can have a good life and I can stay home with the baby. He
hardly ever complains, but when he does, I understand why.
People join the Navy because they think it's an easy
paycheck, and Snookums has to put up with those slackers
and do his job. So, tonight is his night. He called me at
lunch time to tell me he loved me, he wanted hot biscuits
with dinner and he wanted sex tonight. I suppose that
isn't too much to ask. I made him vegetable beef stew with
his hot biscuits and sauted vegetables. I'm going to put
satin sheets on the bed, spread red rose petals all over
our bedroom and I got 12 red candles. It's going to look
really pretty. Sometimes you have to take steps to keep
the spice in your marriage and I want him to know that I
love being married to him.

I guess I should close for now. I don't want him to get
advanced notice of what I have planned. Honestly, tonight
isn't just for him, I need a little romance in my life,
too.
